Improving BSFC through Multiple Injections and Varying Cetane Number for a Medium Duty Diesel Engine (2017-04-28)Due to their relatively low carbon dioxide emissions and superior fuel efficiency performance, interest in further utilization of diesel engines for commercial and industrial use continues to grow. The concept of multiple ...
-
(2022-04-25)Estimating emissions of an internal combustion engine depends on the interactions between different vehicle components, such as the three-way catalyst (TWC) and the exhaust manifold. This thesis focuses on developing a ...
-
(2009-05-15)Of all the trace elements emitted during coal combustion, mercury is most problematic. Mercury from the atmosphere enters into oceanic and terrestrial waters. Part of the inorganic Hg in water is converted into organic Hg ...
-
(2009-05-15)Coal fired power plants produce NOx at unacceptable levels. In order to control these emissions without major modifications to the burners, additional fuel called reburn fuel is fired under rich conditions (10-30 % by heat) ...
-
(2015-08-27)Recently, straight vegetable oils (SVO) have been considered as combustion fuels due to their relatively high heating value and negligible content of sulfur and nitrogen, which is beneficial from the combustion point of ...
-
(2010-07-14)Manure-based biomass (MBB) has the potential to be a source of green energy at large coal-fired power plants and on smaller-scale combustion systems at or near confined animal feeding operations. Although MBB is a low ...
-
(2014-12-10)In an attempt to better understand and model transport of oxygen, O2, from capillaries to living cells in surrounding tissue, the group combustion (O2 deficient) concept from the field of combustion science in engineering ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)A comprehensive second law analysis of combustion for a range of conditions and fuels was completed. Constant pressure, constant volume and constant temperature combustion processes were examined. The parameters studied ...
-
(2009-05-15)Cattle biomass (CB) has been proposed as a renewable, supplementary fuel for co-firing and reburning. Reburning coal with CB has the potential to reduce NOx and Hg emissions from coal fired systems. The present research ...
-
(2017-07-31)Large bore two-stroke natural gas engines are facing more stringent emission regulations in the near future. In order to comply with these new regulations, engine manufacturers have to modify their engines. Redesigning ...
-
(2022-07-18)Prechambers are systems that can easily be implemented onto currently existing engines. They provide an increase in fuel efficiency and decrease in emissions if designed properly. This study looks to determine how the ...

A novel unsupervised learning-based clustering approach to represent the flamelet tables is developed. The typical tabulation method for flamelet-based modeling generally requires a large amount of storage. A well-developed ...
