Automotive ignition system diagnostic procedures involve a specific kind of action due to the presence of high voltage pulses rated of roughly several dozen kilovolts. Therefore, the repairers employed at car service coming into direct contact with electrical equipment of ignition systems are exposed to risk of electric shock. Typically, the electric discharge energy of automotive ignition syst...

During the intake process, working volume of cylinder is filled with a fresh charge. As noted, charge consists air in diesel engine, and engines ignition from an electric spark (gasoline carburetor or gasoline fuel injection, as well gas) – mixture vapors light combustible gas.

Using the spark plasma sintering (SPS) method, hydroxyapatite (HAp) material was densified using a hydroxyapatite powder (RND Korea, 45 μm, purity 98 +%). The HAp was nearly completely dense with a relative density of up to 97 % after the simultaneous application of 60 MPa of pressure and about 30 minutes of electric current without significant change in the grain size. The average grain size o...

in isobaric models for inertial confinement fusion it is assumed that the target configurationat stagnation time (maximum compression) consists of two regions, hot spark and cold fuel, respectively.here the conditions of spark formation and ignition in hydrogen equimolar isotopes in central sparkignition are investigated and permissible values of hs and ts are evaluated numerically. by introduc...

In the past few decades a number of studies dealing with eighteenth-century natural philosophy in England have pointed out its inextricable links with spectacle and public display. The commodification of cultural products, which was one of the main features of the Enlightenment, extended to science and scientific instruments, textbooks, and demonstrations, as well as to medicine. Pivotal works ...

Electric discharge drill machine (EDDM) is a spark erosion process to produce micro-holes in conductive materials. This process is widely used in aerospace, medical, dental and automobile industries. As for the performance evaluation of the electric discharge drilling machine, it is very necessary to study the process parameters of machine tool. In this research paper, a brass rod 2 mm diameter...

Temperature is one of the effective parameters in erosion of spark plug electrodes. In this research, temperature of spark plug was measured in engine's different operation conditions with two types of fuels: compressed natural gas and gasoline. Test results showed that, temperature of center electrode is lower than ground electrode and maximum difference between them is 110ºC that occurs at...

[1] The largest explosive volcanic eruptions that have occurred on Earth generated giant ash clouds from rising plumes that spread in the stratosphere around a height of neutral buoyancy, with estimated supply rates that are in the range 10 to 10 m/s. These giant ash clouds are controlled by a balance between gravity and Coriolis forces, forming spinning bodies of nearly fixed proportions after...

Applying corona wind as a novel technique can lead to a great level of heat and mass transfer augmentation by using very small amount of energy. Enhancement of forced flow evaporation rate by applying electric field (corona wind) has been experimentally evaluated in this study. Corona wind produced by a fine wire electrode which is charged with positive high DC voltage impinges to water surface...
