Fuel component effects on hydrocarbon emissions from a spark-ignition engine
A fuel component perturbation experiment was performed in order to determine the sensitivity of the engine-out emission levels of two olefins, 2-methylpropene (2MP) and 1,3-butadiene, to selected fuel components. In this experiment, a base fuel was perturbed with the following four major fuel …

The use of reduced-moderation light water reactors for transuranic isotope burning in thorium fuel
… dominant nuclear reactor system. Uranium (U)-fuelled LWRs produce long-lived transuranic (TRU) isotopes. TRUs can be recycled in LWRs or fast reactors. The thermal neutron spectrum in LWRs is less suitable for burning TRUs as this causes a build-up of TRU isotopes with low fission probability. …

Transient model of preheating a submerged entry nozzle
… skulling, and depends on torch configuration, fuel, SEN geometry and other factors. A steady-state axisymmetric computational model of the flame, combustion reactions, and air entrainment has been combined with a transient model of heat transfer in the refractory walls to simulate the SEN …
