Knowledge of the fuel flow rate is important for accurate fuel burn and emissions inventory generation and for accurate engine performance modeling. In this paper, machine learning techniques are applied to aircraft flight recorder data to model the fuel flow rate as a function of the aircraft altitude, ground speed, vertical speed, and takeoff mass in the airborne phases of flight. Models are ...

Automotive Systems A u to m o tive Sstem s Th e fuel pressure control system (FPCS) was developed to comply with increasingly strict fuel-effi ciency and emissions regulations by improving fuel economy and reducing emissions. It controls the discharge fl ow rate of the fuel pump and fuel injection pressure in accordance with engine operating conditions. Past fuel supply systems have operated th...

In order to solve energy crisis, the search for alternative fuel is extensively important. Alternative fuels selected should be renewable, sustainable and eco-friendly. In India, kerosene is also used as a fuel in cooking stove. Kerosene contains impurities like sulphur, aromatics and hydrocarbons, which causes environmental degradation. In this experimental investigation, blends of ethanol and...

In this study, a more accurate model of fuel cell of molten carbonate was also used that was determined input and output control variables and investigated the behavior of the system with respect to those variables. A more complete kinetic is also implemented for increasing the effectiveness of the presented paper. The input variables include fuel flow rate of cell which is methane and cell vol...

diffusion flame in a dust cloud combustion in a counterflow configuration is investigated in this research. it is presumed that the fuel particles vaporize first to yield a gaseous fuel to oxidize with the gas phase. the reaction rate is assumed to be of the arrhenius type. conservation equations for the non-unity lewis number are solved and the flame temperature with the variations of differen...

In order to maintain cab comfort truck drivers have to idle their engine to obtain the required power for accessories, such as the air conditioner, heater, television, refrigerator, and lights. This idling of the engine has a major impact on its fuel consumption and exhaust emission. Idling emissions can be as high as 86.4 g/h, 16,500 g/h, 5130 g/h, 4 g/h, and 375 g/h for HC, CO2, CO, PM, and N...
