A comparative study between two ignition sources: Electric igniter versus pyrotechnic igniter

Journal of Loss Prevention in the Process Industries, 2023
The risk assessment of combustible explosive dust is based on the determination of the probability of dust dispersion, the identification of potential ignition sources and the evaluation of explosion severity. It is achieved in most of cases with the two main experimental normalized devices such as the Hartmann tube (spark ignition) and the 20L ...

Thermal Energy and Luminosity Characterization of an Advanced Ignition System Using a Non-Intrusive Methodology in an Optically Accessible Calorimeter

Energies, 2023
To restrain the environmental impact of modern SI engines, igniters must guarantee stable combustions with low cycle-to-cycle variability in extreme operating conditions (high EGR, ultra-lean), via high energy release in the combustion chamber.
