The Recuperated Split Cycle - Experimental Combustion Data from a Single Cylinder Test Rig

Development a split window algorithm to estimate land surface temperature from Sentinel -3 satellite data

Land Surface Temperature (LST) is an important indicator of the study of energy balance models at the earthchr('39')s surface and the interactions between the Earth and the atmosphere on a regional and global scale. To date, different algorithms have been developed in the last few decades to determine the land surface temperature using various satellite images. In this study, a new split window...

Development of a Single Cylinder CNG Direct Injection Engine and Its Performance, Emissions and Combustion Characteristics

This study presents experimental test results of a compressed natural gas (CNG) direct injection (DI) engine, which has been developed by modifying a single cylinder diesel engine. The major modifications are (a) modification of components such as cylinder head, piston etc. and (b) development and deployment of electronic fuel injection system and (c) installation of a capacitive discharge igni...

A. Roubaud**, V. Mahulkar, P. Leyland and D. Favrat Laboratory for Industrial Energy systems, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne, Switzerland J.B. Vos CFS engineering, Scientific Park, Lausanne, Switzerland Abstract This paper deals with the simulation of HCCI combustion based on a generic rapid compression machine experiment as a test bed, and using a coupled CFD code-chemical k...

A steam Rankine cycle with two-stage pumping to enhance the waste heat recovery from internal combustion engines

In this research, a high-temperature Rankin cycle (HTRC) with two-stage pumping is presented and investigated. In this cycle, two different pressures and mass flow rates in the HTRC result in two advantages. First, the possibility of direct recovery from the engine block by working fluid of water, which is a low quality waste heat source, is created in a HTRC. Secondly, by doing this, the mean ...
