Investigation of Combustion Properties and Soot Deposits of Various US Crude Oils
The oil boom in the North Dakota oilfields has resulted in improved energy security for the US. Recent estimates of oil production rates indicate that even completion of the Keystone XL pipeline will only fractionally reduce the need to ship this oil by ...

An Experimental Study of Pool Fire Characteristics under the Effects of Cross Winds and Baffles
The pool fires that occur behind obstructions in a ventilated environment are very different from other wind-blown pool fires. The pool fire formed by fuel leakage in an engine nacelle is a typical example of a pool fire influenced by cross winds and ...

Theoretical and Experimental Research on Gun Propellant Burning [PDF]
The paper presents a method to determine the burning rate law and the progressivity coefficient of the fine-grained propellants shape. To achieve the objective of this paper, a series of tests were performed in a closed vessel.

Specificity of Burning of Porous Combustible Material Used as Cartridge Case
The combustible cartridge case has become an integral part of many modern weapons systems. The energetic and burning characteristics of the combustible case can have a significant impact on shot parameters. This paper describes Closed Vessel Tests (CVTs)

Study on the Combustion Characteristics of Ethanol Nanofuel
This study investigates the thermophysical and combustion characteristics of ethanol-based nanofuels incorporating aluminum (Al) and nickel-coated aluminum (Ni-Al). The nanofuels are prepared with varying concentrations of Al and Ni-Al nanoparticles. The

The rate of burning of colloidal propellants [PDF]
Abstract Two papers have recently appeared in which a theoretical law is derived for the burning of colloidal propellants, and in each case the theory is supported by experimental results. Yamaga proves that the rate of burning along the normal is proportional to the pressure of the surrounding gases, ’whereas Crow and Grimshaw prove ...
