the application of ion current signals is one of the most recent approaches in engine management systems. by applying a small constant dc voltage across the electrodes of the spark plug and measuring the current through the electrode gap, the state of gas may be measured and investigated. in this paper a computer code is developed in order to analyze the state of gas during the combustion perio...

the dual fuel engines at part loads inevitably suffer from lower thermal efficiency and higher carbon monoxide and unburned fuel emission. this work is carried out to investigate combustion characteristics of a dual fuel (dieselgas) engine at part loads, using a single zone combustion model with detailed chemical kinetics for combustion of natural gas fuel. the authors developed software in whi...

The calculation of the changing of the combustion mixture composition during the combustion process of the CH4 is presented of the paper. Correct calculation results of the mixture composition during the combustion process in combustion chambers of internal combustion engines is important to define the heat release calculation, modeling and simulation of the combustion phenomena. The paper pres...

Controlled bench scale pulverized coal combustion studies were performed, demonstrating that inorganic particles play a critical role as carriers of organic species. Two commonly-used aerosol mass spectrometry techniques were applied to characterize fine particle formation during coal combustion. It was found that the organic species in coal combustion aerosols have mass spectra similar to thos...

It is a well known fact that, dual fuel engines at part loads, inevitably suffer lower thermal efficiency, higher carbon monoxide and unburned fuel emission. The work in this paper is to investigate combustion characteristics of a dual fuel (diesel-gas) engine at part loads, using a single zone combustion model with detailed chemical kinetics for combustion of natural gas fuel. The authors deve...

Ethnomethodology is an established method of research in technology related fields. In work settings, ethnomethodology has helped researchers to deepen their understanding of how collaborative activities unfold in a social context. While much collaboration is now carried out online, through distributed teams for example, ethnomethodology, as a method of analysis, has not received considerable i...

We propose a H2–CO kinetic model which incorporates the recent thermodynamic, kinetic, and species transport updates relevant to high-temperature H2 and CO oxidation. Attention has been placed on obtaining a comprehensive and kinetically accurate model able to predict a wide variety of H2–CO combustion data. The model was subject to systematic optimization and validation tests against reliable ...

  This paper presents a modeling study of a CNG Homogenous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine using single-zone and multi-zone combustion models. Authors' developed code could be able to predict engine combustion and performance parameters in closed part of the engine cycle. As detailed chemical kinetics is necessary to investigate combustion process in HCCI engines, therefore, GRI-m...

this paper reports a cfd modeling study to investigate the hydrogen-air mixture combustion in a micro scale chamber. nine species with nineteen reversible reactions were considered in the premixed combustion model. the effect of operational and geometrical conditions including; combustor size, wall conductivity, reactant flow rates and hydrogen feed splitting on combustion stability and outlet ...
