For more than two decades, Twence has been a market leader in harnessing raw materials and energy from waste. The company, operating in the eastern Dutch province of Overijssel, manages biomass power ...
Despite its critics and moves toward electrification, the internal combustion engine is not yet dead. Though its design for passenger vehicles may have begun to reach its apex with Mazda’s Skyactiv ...
While production of gas and diesel internal combustion engines may fade in the next 20 years, hydrogen could inject new life into internal combustion. New research from Interact Analysis predicts that ...
It's important to keep in mind that the combustion process occurs in a very brief period of time. Due to a variety of conditions that include mixture density, homogeneity, temperature, fuel ...
You might have heard about high compression ratios, but what exactly are they, and what kind of effect do they have on an ...
Combustion analysis is all about location. Key measurements are taken in the flue gas after the heat exchanger and prior to any dilution air entering the flue. Typically, the ideal location to measure ...
The pursuit of more efficient, low-emission power generation continues to drive research into gas turbine combustion and plasma-assisted technologies. Gas turbines remain a cornerstone in various ...
Recognizing the importance of internal combustion engines to the nation’s energy security and a need to mitigate their negative environmental aspects, including greenhouse gas emissions, researchers ...
As the internal combustion engine reaches its very mature twilight, it turns out that there may still be a surprisingly large efficiency improvement that is possible through transient plasma ignition.
Can methane flare burners be advanced to produce less methane? This is what a recent study published in Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research hopes to address as a team of researchers from the ...
Figure 1. With fuel supply dominating nearly 80% of operational costs, maintaining a high level of efficiency becomes the key to maximizing your annual savings. July 27, 2021 Boiler efficiency is ...
