Investigation of Fuel Geometry and Solid Fuel Combustion for Solid Fuel Ramjets
Solid fuel ramjets (SFRJs) are a simple means of sustaining supersonic flight. The utilization of solid fuels eliminates the need for moving parts or liquid delivery systems, and the solid fuels are typically inert, resulting in minimal handling requirements compared to solid propellants. …

Simulation of solid fuel combustion in the cyclone combustion chamber using fluent-14.0
… way to done this method is by using the Cyclone Combustion chamber. Cyclone combustor is known as the separator of the ash from the gaseous products of the solid fuel. The objectives of this study are to demonstrated the flow characteristic, identify velocity and temperature distributions inside …

Multi-Scale Studies to Develop a Holistic Understanding of Solid Fuel Combustion at Residential Scale
<p>Nearly 3 billion people rely on solid fuels for their cooking and heating needs, classifying them as “energy poor”. This poverty can be attributed to several factors, including a lack of resources (fuel), inefficient infrastructure (production and distribution), limited purchasing power …

Field emission measurements of solid fuel stoves in Yunnan, China
… (OC), and elemental carbon (EC), as well as combustion efficiency and particle optical properties were measured during 37 uncontrolled cooking tests of residential stoves in Yunnan Province, China. Fuel mixtures included coal, woody biomass, and agricultural waste. Compared to previously …

Familial variation in personal PM2.5 exposure within a rural Rwandan community pre and post clean energy intervention
Exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) from solid fuel combustion is a major determinant of global morbidity and mortality. However, demographic variations in personal exposure remain uncertain across many high-risk populations. Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) stoves have been proven to emit far …

Fuel-NOx Formation during Low-Grade Fuel Combustion in a Swirling-Flow Burner
… in the near-burner region during biomass combustion is one of major factors preventing widespread use of this renewable fuel in pulverized coal power plants. The current research is aimed to investigate the impact of biomass cofiring on NO formation in the near-burner region through …

The simulation of fire growth and spread within enclosures using an integrated CFD fire spread model
… growth and propagation in enclosures in which solid combustibles are involved through wall or ceiling linings. Gas phase combustion, radiation and solid fuel combustion are addressed in this study. At the heart of this study is the integration of the three sub-models representing the key …

The demand, selection, and health impacts of household energy in Pakistan
… almost three billion people still depend upon solid fuels such as firewood, biomass, crop residues, animal dung, and coal, which are the major contributors to IAP. This thesis investigates the causal relationship between solid fuel consumption and both child mortality and life expectancy, the …

Experimental and Theoretical Study of Hypergolic Solid Fuel Ignition and Combustion with Hydrogen Peroxide
… This study investigates the ignition and combustion behaviors of hypergolic solid fuels (HSFs) using rocket-grade hydrogen peroxide (RGHP) as the oxidizer. The HSFs used in this study were composed of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) as the fuel binder, along with two types of hypergolic …
