Modelling fire occurrence at regional scale. Does vegetation phenology matter? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Through its influence on biomass production, climate controls fuel availability affecting at the same time fuel moisture and flammability, which are the main determinants for fire ignition and propagation.

Hybrid Oxygen Enrichment and Preheating Strategy for Performance Recovery in Ultra‐Lean Micro–Trapped Vortex Combustors

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Ultra‐lean H2 micro‐combustor performance is boosted through regulated O2 enrichment and inlet preheating. A 16‐case Taguchi study (ϕ = 0.3) shows: controlled enrichment and heating increase radiative output and efficiency, but excessive O2/temperature causes flashback.

Change in Ignition Characteristics Of Composite Liquid Fuel Droplet While Varying the Combustible Liquid Content

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2015
The features of heat and ignition of composite liquid fuel droplets in a heated (temperatures were 600–900 K) oxidant were investigated to develop modern recycling technologies of processing waste of coal, petroleum products, liquid fuels and combustible

Engine performance of a single cylinder direct injection diesel engine fuelled with blends of Jatropha Curcas oil and stardard diesel fuel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Blends of Jatropha Curcas oil and standard diesel fuel were evaluated (without pre-heating). The engine tests for the blends were performed in a Petter single cylinder direct injection diesel engine under steady state conditions at high loads.

Experimental Study on the Combustion and Explosion Characteristics of Tributyl Phosphate and Kerosene Mixtures at Different Initial Pressures in High‐Temperature Environments

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The explosion hazard of TBP and kerosene mixed vapor in the nuclear fuel reprocessing process is studied. The results enrich the explosion characteristics and explosion limits of TBP‐kerosene, and provide reference value and basis for the safety setting of the operation process and operating environment of nuclear fuel reprocessing plants ABSTRACT As ...

On the applicability of empirical heat transfer models for hydrogen combustion engines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Hydrogen-fuelled internal combustion engines are being investigated as an alternative for current drive trains because they have a high efficiency, near-zero noxious and zero tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions.

Effect of Tunnel Ventilation on Hydrogen Dispersion From Leaks in Hydrogen Fuel Cell Trucks

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates hydrogen leakage scenarios involving hydrogen fuel cell trucks within tunnels. Using computational fluid dynamics methods, it explores the distribution characteristics of hydrogen concentrations and the efficiency of ventilation under different forced ventilation conditions. ABSTRACT The widespread adoption of hydrogen fuel cell
