Efficient light-duty engine using turbulent jet ignition of lean methane mixtures [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Engine Research, 2019
Diesel engines use diffusion-controlled combustion of a high-reactivity fuel and offer high efficiencies because they combine lean combustion with a high compression ratio. For low-reactivity fuels such as gasoline or natural gas, premixed combustion is used, which leads to lower efficiency levels as usually stoichiometric combustion is combined with ...

A Multifunctional Bioactive Nanoscale Coating Deposited by Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Polymerization of Peppermint Essential Oil

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Atmospheric plasma polymerization transforms peppermint essential oil into ultrathin, substrate‐independent bioactive coatings with antioxidant, contact‐active antibacterial, and immunomodulatory functions. The coating disrupts Gram‐negative pathogens, potentiates prophylactic antibiotics, suppresses pro‐inflammatory signaling, and promotes M2 ...

Numerical simulation of reacting and non-reacting liquid jets in supersonic crossflow

open access: yesApplications in Energy and Combustion Science
Canonical jet in supersonic crossflow (JISC) studies have been widely used to study fundamental physics relevant to a variety of applications. While most JISC works have considered injection of gases, liquid injection is also of practical interest and ...

Experiments concerning the mechanism of flame blowoff from bluff bodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
The general problem of flame stabilization on bluff objects centers about the determination of the maximum stream velocity at which stable combustion may be achieved for various flame holder geometries, gas mixtures and conditions of the approaching ...

Medical Gas Plasma Inactivates Adenoviruses via Capsid Oxidation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Oxidative modification of three adenoviral capsid proteins after gas plasma treatment. Schematic representation of the viral infection process, starting with the initial attachment of the virus via its fiber protein binding to the cellular receptors (CAR and/or CD46). In the secondary attachment step, the penton base binds to integrin structures on the

Numerical investigation on turbulent flame jet characteristics of ultra-lean H2/air ignited by pre-chamber enrichment strategy

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management: X
Pre-chamber enrichment for igniting ultra-lean premixed H2/air is an effective strategy for achieving ultra-low emission and improved fuel economy. This study employed a three-dimensional numerical simulation based on a constant volume combustion chamber

Further experimental results on the structure and acoustics of turbulent jet flames [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
The structure of open turbulent jet flames is experimentally studied in the context of their noise emission characteristics. The differences between premixed and (co-flow) non-premixed flames are explored.

Success and failure in foreign policy: Comparing Bob Hawke and Kevin Rudd's regional order‐building initiatives

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract Remarkably little is known about what factors drive success or failure in foreign policy. In part, this is because there is little fundamental agreement on what constitutes success or failure in this domain in the first place. This article engages with these shortcomings by comparing two similar regional order‐building initiatives overseen by ...
