Biogas engine performance estimation using ANN

open access: yesEngineering Science and Technology, an International Journal, 2017
Artificial neural network (ANN) method was used to estimate the thermal efficiency (TE), brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) and volumetric efficiency (VE) values of a biogas engine with spark ignition at different methane (CH4) ratios and engine load

Spark Plug with Integrated Chamber

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Spark plug with integrated chamber increases the quality of ignition of homogenous mixture in the engine cylinder. Very small amount of burning mixture bursts (outflows) from chamber (so-called flame jet ignition) which heads into faster initial phase of
