the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of injection parameters on a heavy duty diesel engine performance and emission characteristics. in order to analyze the injection and spray characteristics of diesel fuel with employing high-pressure common-rail injection system, the injection characteristics such as injection delay, injection duration, injection rate, number of nozzle hole...

Humidified gas turbines (HGT) have been identified as a promising way of producing power. The use of the steaminjected gas turbine (STIG) HGT cycle in a combined power and water desalination system was analyzed using energy and exergy performance criteria. A brief description and rationale of the background of HGT cycles and dual-purpose power and water systems is given. A thermal desalination ...

In this work, we propose the use of an air segment in a sequential injection system to simultaneously improve the overlapping of the stacked zones and minimise dispersion. This strategy was developed for the determination of sulphate in natural and wastewaters. Barium chloride was used as a precipitating agent and the turbidity of the suspension formed was measured at 420 nm. Analysis was perfo...

Saline aquifer geological carbon sequestration (SAGCS) is considered most attractive among other options for geological carbon sequestration (GCS) due to its huge sequestration capacity. However, in order to fully exploit its potential, efficient injection strategies need to be investigated for enhancing the storage efficiency and safety along with economic feasibility. In our previous work, we...

To characterize the coupled hydromechanical behavior of rock fractures, step-rate injection method for fracture in-situ properties (SIMFIP) was conducted with a specialized downhole probe developed by Guglielmi et al. (2014, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00603-013-0517-1). In June 2019, field campaign carried out near Åre, Sweden, where SIMFIP applied in Collisional Orogeny Scandinavian Caledonides-...

The present study was performed to determine whether sympathetic outflow and arterial blood pressure in water-deprived rats are dependent on the ongoing neuronal activity of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN). Renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), and heart rate were recorded in urethane-alpha-chloralose-anesthetized rats that were deprived of ...
