Combustion Characteristics of a Single-Cylinder Open-Chamber Diesel Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The combustion characteristics of an open-chamber diesel engine were examined by means of heat-release analysis and flame luminosity measurements. Increasing the load was found to decrease premixed ...
On the Premixed Combustion in a Direct-Injection Diesel Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The factors influencing premixed burning and the importance of premixed burning on the exhaust emissions from a small high-speed direct-injection diesel engine were investigated. The characteristics ...
Heat Release Studies in a Divided-Chamber Diesel Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The influences of operational parameters on the heat release and heat transfer characteristics of a divided-chamber diesel engine were examined. Increasing the fuel-air ratio increased the heat ...
The Application of Availability and Energy Balances to a Diesel Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The maximum power that can be extracted from an engine operating at a given condition was determined by means of analyses based on the first and second laws of thermodynamics. These analyses ...
Indicators of Fuel Maldistribution in Spark-Ignition Engines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Several exhaust-emissions-based parameters were experimentally found to be good indicators for fuel maldistribution (both in-cylinder and cylinder-to-cylinder) in spark-ignition engines. The quality ...
Erosive Effects of High Pressure and High Temperature Gases on Steel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental study is being conducted to determine the thermochemical mechanisms by which short duration pulses (1 to 2 ms) of high pressure and temperature gases erode steel. A ballistic ...
Erosion of Powder Metallurgy Aluminum Alloys by Hot Propellant Gases
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experimental results are presented on the erosion of PMA (Powder Metallurgy Aluminum) alloys by a pulse of high pressure and high temperature combustible gases. The PMA alloys have been found ...
Laboratory Experiments on Oil-Jet Cooling of Internal Combustion Engine Pistons: Area-Average Correlation of Oil-Jet Impingement Heat Transfer
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Oil-jet cooling of internal combustion engine pistons has risen in prominence with the need to improve fuel economy by increasing the power density of engines. Laboratory tests were performed on a production automotive ...
