A comparative study on the effect of nano-additives on performance and emission characteristics of CI engine run on castor biodiesel blended fuel

Energy Conversion and Management: X, 2023
Biodiesel is a promising alternative fuel because of its renewable status, biodegradability, non-toxicity, and low pollution levels. However, other limitations such as high viscosity, low thermal energy content, poor atomization, greater densities, and ...

Atomistic Mechanisms for the Nucleation of Aluminum Oxide Nanoparticles [PDF]

The Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2015
A predictive model for nanoparticle nucleation has not yet been successfully achieved. Classical nucleation theory fails because the atomistic nature of the seed has to be considered since geometrical structure as well as stoichiometry do not always match the bulk values.

Influence of slip and convective boundary conditions on peristaltic transport of non-Newtonian nanofluids in an inclined asymmetric channel

Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2016
In this study, we investigate a peristaltic transport of nano-hyperbolic tangent fluid in an inclined asymmetric channel with convective boundary conditions. Two types of nanoparticles are considered, namely, the copper and aluminum oxide.

Synthesis and Characterization of Bismuth Oxide Nanoparticle by Thermal Decomposition of Bismuth-Based MOF and Evaluation of Its Nanocomposite [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2021
Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are an important class of highly porous hybrid materials. A bismuth-based MOF was prepared under solvothermal conditions via the self-assembly of primary building blocks at 100 °C for 3 h.

Multilayered Al/CuO thermite formation by reactive magnetron sputtering: Nano versus micro [PDF]

, 2010
Multilayered Al/CuO thermite was deposited by a dc reactive magnetron sputtering method. Pure Al and Cu targets were used in argon–oxygen gas mixture plasma and with an oxygen partial pressure of 0.13 Pa. The process was designed to produce low stress (
