Study of Fuel Temperature Effects on Fuel Injection, Combustion, and Emissions of Direct-Injection Diesel Engines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The influence of inlet liquid fuel temperature on direct-injection diesel engines can be noticeable and significant. The work in this paper investigates the effects of inlet fuel temperature on ...
Study of the Variations in Cylinder Exhaust Gas Temperature Over Inlet Air and Operation Input Parameters of Compression Ignition Engines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cylinderexhaustgas temperature (Texh) of a turbocharged compressionignition engine indicates the levels of engine thermal loading on cylinder and exhaust components, thermal efficiency performance, and engine exhaust ...
Prediction of Peak Cylinder Pressure Variations Over Varying Inlet Air Condition of Compression-Ignition Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Peak cylinder pressure (pmax) of a compression-ignition engine can be affected by the engine inlet air condition, such as its inlet air temperature (Ti) and pressure (pi). The variation of ...
Design of Steel Shear Connections for Eccentricity as a Result of Secondary Bending Moment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Shear connections develop a moment under the rotational demand imposed to them by the supported beam. For single-angle, double-angle, and tab to tubular column shear connections, this moment can be obtained through the ...
Plastic Behavior of Shear Tabs Welded to Flexible Wall Support
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an experimental study of six steel shear tab connections to hollow structural section columns. This study focuses on the plastic behavior of shear tabs and their supporting column walls. The column walls ...
Convergence and Optimal Parameters of the Inertial Relaxed Lattice Boltzmann Method in Fluid and Solid Simulations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper introduces an accelerated lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) tailored for both fluid and solid simulations, utilizing the inertial relaxed Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (IR-BGK) operator, referred to as IR-LBM. The Navier-Stokes ...
Numerical Investigation of the Elastic Lamina Deformation Based on Radial Layout D2Q9 Lattice Boltzmann Model
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The radial layout D2Q9 lattice Boltzmann model applied to elastic lamina was investigated. An equivalent differential discursive form for the equation of elastic lamina deformation is provided, and its equivalency to the ...
Comparing the Hydraulic Performance of Cold-Water Premise Plumbing Systems Designed Based on Traditional and Modern Peak Demand Estimates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recent research has developed more accurate methods to estimate the peak demand for premise plumbing design in residential buildings. The improved accuracy produces lower design flow rates, leading to a reduction in pipe ...
Ural Blocking as an Amplifier of the Arctic Sea Ice Decline in Winter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIn this paper, the lead?lag relationship between the Arctic sea ice variability over the Barents?Kara Sea (BKS) and Ural blocking (UB) in winter (DJF) ranging from 1979/80 to 2011/12 is examined. It is found that ...
MPPT Control by Using a <i>U</i>–<i>P</i> Curve for PMSG–Based Small Wind Turbines
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG)–based small wind turbines (SWT) are studied in recent years because of their high reliability, high efficiency and low cost. To achieve maximum power point tracking (MPPT) ...
