Gas Engine Technologies for Marine Application

Reformer Gas Application in Combustion Onset Control of HCCI Engine

Homogenous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion is spontaneous multi-site combustion of a nominally premixed air/fuel mixture that exhibits high rate of pressure rise and short combustion duration. To avoid excessive pressure rise rate and knocking, HCCI engines are fueled with highly diluted mixture using a combination of excess air and/or EGR. HCCI combustion is attractive due to ...

Application of novel extraction technologies for bioactives from marine algae.

Marine algae are a rich source of bioactive compounds. This paper outlines the main bioactive compounds in marine algae and recent advances in novel technologies for extracting them. Novel extraction technologies reviewed include enzyme-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, and pressurized liquid extraction. These tec...

Modeling of Microdiaphragm Based Pressure Sensor with Application for Gas Turbine Engine Condition Monitoring

The miniaturization of sensors represents a promising approach for various systems health management. Dynamic pressure measurements have a very good potential to provide GTE diagnostics, maintenance management, and optimized performance, based on pressure variation measurements. In this paper, we will investigate vibrational behavior of piezoelectric microdiaphragm based pressure sensor with ap...
