Wear effects and mechanisms of soot-contaminated automotive lubricants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A study has been carried out to investigate the influence of soot-contaminated automotive lubricants in the wear process of a simulated engine valve train contact. Previous research on this topic has been mainly performed from a chemical point of view in

Note on the Composition of Soot [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Agricultural Science, 1910
The value of soot as a manure depeuds upon the ammonium salts which it contains, as well as upon its beneficial effect on the texture and colour of the soil, and its power of diminishing the ravages of slugs and small snails upon a young crop. In various samples which from time to time have been submitted to analysis the percentage of nitrogen present ...

Instabilities and soot formation in high pressure explosion flames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Flame instabilities, cellular structures and soot formed in high pressure, rich, spherically expanding iso-octane-air flames have been studied experimentally using high speed Schlieren cinematography, OH fluorescence, and laser induced incandescence ...

Capacitive Soot Sensor

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2015
AbstractA capacitive soot sensor was built up on basis of a known resistive device by covering the electrode area with a thin but dense alumina layer manufactured by the aerosol-deposition-method (ADM). Deposited soot cannot short-circuit the electrodes but leads to an increasing capacitance of the sensor.

Formation of PAHs and Carbonaceous Solids in Gas-Phase Condensation Experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Carbonaceous grains represent a major component of cosmic dust. In order to understand their formation pathways, they have been prepared in the laboratory by gas-phase condensation reactions such as laser pyrolysis and laser ablation.

Laboratory measurements in a turbulent, swirling flow [PDF]

open access: yes
Measurements of soot inside a flame-tube burner using a special water-flushed probe are discussed. The soot is measured at a series of points at each burner, and upon occasion gaseous constitutents NO, CO, hydrocarbons, etc., were also measured.

Flexible conformable hydrophobized surfaces for turbulent flow drag reduction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In recent years extensive work has been focused onto using superhydrophobic surfaces for drag reduction applications. Superhydrophobic surfaces retain a gas layer, called a plastron, when submerged underwater in the Cassie-Baxter state with water in ...

Albedo and flux extinction coefficient of impure snow for diffuse shortwave radiation [PDF]

open access: yes
Impurities enter a snowpack as a result of fallout of scavenging by falling snow crystals. Albedo and flux extinction coefficient of soot contaminated snowcovers were studied using a two stream approximation of the radiative transfer equation. The effect

Individual aerosol particles from biomass burning in southern Africa: 2. Compositions and aging of inorganic particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Individual aerosol particles collected over southern Africa during the SAFARI 2000 field study were studied using transmission electron microscopy and field- emission scanning electron microscopy.
