Spark Ignition Measurements in Jet A: part II [PDF]
, 2000 An improved system for measuring the ignition energy of liquid fuel was built to perform experiments on aviation kerosene (Jet A). Compared to a previously used system (Shepherd et al. 1998), the present vessel has a more uniform temperature which can be

A statistical model to predict ignition probability [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Ignition capability is a critical design constraint for aeronautical gas turbines. However the current trend toward overall lean burn is detrimental to the engine ignition and relight and the ignition system must be adapted to ensure a fast and reliable light-round in all circumstances.

Carbon Ignition in Type Ia Supernovae: An Analytic Model [PDF]
, 2003 The observable properties of a Type Ia supernova are sensitive to how the nuclear runaway ignites in a Chandrasekhar mass white dwarf - at a single point at its center, off-center, or at multiple points and times. We present a simple analytic model for the runaway based upon a combination of stellar mixing-length theory and recent advances in ...

Designing for Degradation: Transient Devices Enabled by (Nano)Cellulose
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Recent progress in transient devices enabled by (nano)cellulosic materials is reviewed. Transiency mechanisms, advantages of nanocelluloses, and a suite of applications are discussed. A circular thinking approach coupled with life cycle assessment is applied to critically revisit the potential, advantages, and challenges of nanocellulose‐enabled ...

Carbon Ignition in Type Ia Supernovae: II. A Three-Dimensional Numerical Model [PDF]
Astrophys.J.640:407-416,2006, 2005 The thermonuclear runaway that culminates in the explosion of a Chandrasekhar mass white dwarf as a Type Ia supernova begins centuries before the star actually explodes. Here, using a 3D anelastic code, we examine numerically the convective flow during the last minute of that runaway, a time that is crucial in determining just where and how often the ...

Epitaxial Ferroelectric Hexagonal Boron Nitride Grown on Graphene
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The epitaxial growth of hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) multilayer films on graphene, synthesized on a miscut SiC (0001) substrate, is demonstrated using nitrogen plasma‐assisted molecular‐beam epitaxy. Robust ferroelectricity with switchable out‐of‐plane polarization via interlayer sliding is supported by theoretical and experimental insights ...
