There are plenty of articles on combustion testing, equipment adjustments, and efficiency, but few on basic combustion knowledge or understanding. To some people, promoting setting gas pressure, ...

Important process variables that affect unit efficiency were reviewed in Part 1 of this two-part report. Many of those process parameters were also identified as related to boiler air in-leakage.

On September 25, 2004, Widows Creek Unit 3 in Stevenson, Alabama, established a new continuous-run record for TVA’s fossil plant portfolio when it surpassed the 616-day mark held by Johnsonville Unit ...

Researchers use Direct Numerical Simulations to enhance efficiency, reduce pollution in diesel engines. A "cool flame" may sound contradictory, but it's an important element of diesel combustion -- ...

The field of flame imaging and combustion process monitoring has evolved significantly in recent years, combining advanced optical sensing with data analytics to provide real‐time insights into ...

Big drivers of combustion research include climate mitigation and greenhouse gas reductions. By changing the way we achieve combustion, we can optimize the process and make it more efficient.” Changes ...

HOT ROD’s archives are chock-full of brilliant tech reports that truly are timeless. This one, drafted by Jim McFarland for our February 1972 issue, provides an extensive look at how important airflow ...

ABSTRACT Turbulent Jet Ignition is an advanced pre-chamber initiated combustion system for an otherwise standard spark ignition engine found in current on-road vehicles. This type of ignition enables ...

A plant: natural, grown, leafy. An internal combustion engine: artificial, machined, metallic. At first blush, these two objects couldn't appear less alike. Yet, according to a Princeton University ...
