Combustion of Fractal Distributions [PDF]
arXiv, 1994 The advantages of introducing a fractal viewpoint in the field of combustion is emphasized. It is shown that the condition for perfect combustion of a collection of drops is the self-similarity of the distribution.

Chaotic Combustion in Spark Ignition Engines [PDF]
, 2002 We analyse the combustion process in a spark ignition engine using the experimental data of an internal pressure during the combustion process and show that the system can be driven to chaotic behaviour. Our conclusion is based on the observation of unperiodicity in the time series, suitable stroboscopic maps and a complex structure of a reconstructed ...

European Shock-Tube for High-Enthalpy Research Combustion Driver Qualification [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The ESTHER shock tube is a new state-of-the-art facility at Instituto Superior T\'ecnico designed to support future ESA planetary exploration missions. Its driver is a high-pressure combustion chamber using a mixture of He:H2:O2 ignited by a high-power Nd:YAG laser.

Free Energy and Internal Combustion Engine Cycles [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 The performance of one type (Carnot) of Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) cycle is analyzed within the framework of thermodynamic free energies. ICE performance is different from that of an External Combustion Engine (ECE) which is dictated by Carnot's rule.

Kinetics of Combustion in the Layered Ni-Al System [PDF]
Combustion Science and Technology, 169:1-24, 2001, 2001 Theoretical analysis and experimental results on the combustion in the Ni-Al layered system are presented. Combustion wave temperature and velocity were measured and microstructural and compositional determinations were made. The latter were made on products of complete combustion and on quenched samples using metallographic and electron microprobe ...

Cycle-to-Cycle Fluctuations of Burned Fuel Mass in Spark Ignition Combustion Engines [PDF]
arXiv, 2003 We examine a simple, fuel-air, model of combustion in spark ignition (si) engine with indirect injection. In our two fluid model, variations of fuel mass burned in cycle sequences appear due to stochastic fluctuations of a fuel feed amount. We have shown that a small amplitude of these fluctuations affects considerably the stability of a combustion ...

Local heat flux measurement technique for internal combustion engines [PDF]
, 2017 The heat transfer from the combustion gases to the cylinder wall affects the efficiency, emissions and power output of an internal combustion engine. Measuring the heat transfer requires a heat flux sensor inside the combustion chamber that has a short ...
