in the present work, the simultaneous effects of fuel injection rate and injection of air jet into the combustion chamber on exhaust emissions, combustion process and performance parameters in a direct injection diesel engine were investigated. in order to create an air jet, a design was presented in which a secondary chamber (air cell) was created inside the cylinder and was joined to the main...

In recent decades, fuel cells have been widely used in energy generation. In a PEMFC, considering the specific application, two types of oxidants are used. Durability tests, which are highly costly products,  are of crucial importance in evaluating the lifetime of fuel cells. The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the performance of a fuel cell by changing the type of oxidant from a...

In this experimental study, the effect of creating an air jet inside the combustion chamber by establishing an air-cell inside of the piston body at different injection timings in a DI diesel engine has been studied at 2000 rpm and full load operation. The performed tests include studying the Soot and NOx emissions, combustion and performance parameters. The obtained experimental results show t...

increasing energy demands associated with economic growth and industrialization have resulted in dramatic increases in air pollution emissions. air pollution damages the plant mainly by disrupting cell homeostatic conditions.in the present study, diverse plant criteria indicating air pollution from different levels including cell biochemistry, leaf and tree crown in the plane-tree were determin...

in this literature, a combined method has been employed to simultaneously reducesmoke (soot) and oxide of nitrogen (nox) and maintain the performance parameters of dieselengine. this includes creating an air jet by designing an air-cell inside the piston body, advancedinjection timing and using cold exhaust gas recirculation. the tested engine was an mt4.244engine that worked as natural aspirat...

vibration in the air slide tables of ultra precision machines prevents gaining accuracies within nanometer level. in this work, dissimilar types of internal vibration including small vibrations and pneumatic hammers have been tested and some measures have been offered to reduce their effects. this paper has also proceeded to the vibration tests on the air slide tables built with different numbe...

in this research, the bioinsising impact of two wood decay fungi (pysisporinus vitreus and xylaria longipes) on radial air permeability and moisture diffusion coefficient of spruce wood (picea abies) was investigated. fungal cultivation was performed in an incubator at 25 °c and 85% relative humidity for 15, 30 and 45 days. results showed that the permeability, moisture diffusion and mass loss ...

the steady state effect of vertical fins is assessed on a photovoltaic/thermal solar air heater having a double pass configuration in which fins are placed in the lower channel perpendicular to the direction ofair flow. air passes through the upper channel of the air heater and before passing in the opposite direction through the lower channel. the effects of design, climatic and operating para...
