Scalar Power Spectra and Scalar Structure Function Evolution in the Richtmyer–Meshkov Instability Upon Reshock
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Richtmyer–Meshkov instability of a twice-shocked gas interface is studied using high-speed planar laser-induced fluorescence in the Wisconsin Shock Tube Laboratory's vertical shock tube. The initial condition is a shear ...
Impact of Ignition Assistant on Combustion of Cetane 30 and 35 Jet-Fuel Blends in a Compression-Ignition Engine at Moderate Load and Speed
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study investigates the use of a commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) ceramic glow-plug to assist ignition of jet fuel blends with cetane numbers of 30 and 35, below the minimum cetane number of 40 for #2 diesel. Experiments ...
