RISComparison of Near-Nozzle Spray Performance of Gas-to-Liquid and Jet A-1 Fuels Using Shadowgraph and Phase Doppler Anemometry
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The gas-to-liquid (GTL) fuel, a liquid fuel synthesized from natural gas through Fischer–Tropsch process, exhibits better combustion and, in turn, lower emission characteristics than the conventional jet fuels. However, ...
Thermodynamic and Exergoeconomic Assessment of Environmentally-Benign Zeotropic Mixtures in Organic Rankine Cycle for Sustainable Power Generation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the context of the sustainable energy transition, the organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is explored for energy conversion from renewable energy sources. The majority of ORC systems are explored with synthetic chemicals-based ...
Effect of Nanoparticles on the Fuel Properties and Spray Performance of Aviation Turbine Fuel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The influence of nanoparticles' dispersion on the physical properties of aviation fuel and its spray performance has been investigated in this work. To this end, the conventional Jet A-1 aviation fuel and its mixtures with ...
Effect of Carbon Dioxide on the Laminar Burning Speed of Propane–Air Mixtures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This experimental research examined the effect of CO2 as a diluent on the laminar burning speed of propane–air mixtures. Combustion took place at various CO2 concentrations (0–80%), different equivalence ratios (0.7<ϕ<1.2) ...
Thermodynamic Study on Blends of Hydrocarbons and Carbon Dioxide as Zeotropic Refrigerants
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Finding alternative refrigerants is of extreme importance to mitigate anthropogenic climate change. Among the next-generation refrigerants, hydrocarbons (HCs) are of technical interest because they are natural, efficient, ...
