nanocrystalline complex oxides have been synthesized by combination of sol–gel auto combustion and ultrasonic irradiation techniques using copper nitrate, zinc nitrate as metallic nitrates and glycine, urea and thiourea as fuels. sol-gel combustion (combination of the chemical sol–gel process and the combustion process) as a proper synthesized technique is used to synthesize zno/cuo nanocomposi...

Ethnomethodology is an established method of research in technology related fields. In work settings, ethnomethodology has helped researchers to deepen their understanding of how collaborative activities unfold in a social context. While much collaboration is now carried out online, through distributed teams for example, ethnomethodology, as a method of analysis, has not received considerable i...

The design and development of modern internal combustion engines are marked by a reduction in exhaust gas emissions and increase in specific power and torque. Correspondingly, combustion noise excitation and fuel consumption also have to be reduced. These objectives can be achieved through the development of advanced combustion systems, the increased flexibility of fuel injection systems and EC...

The development of combustion systems to minimize the emission of pollutants and to increase the system’s efficiency involves modifications of the combustion process using premixed systems and highly turbulent swirl stabilized flames. However, these modifications of the combustion process usually lead to stability problems caused by the appearance of combustion-driven oscillations. Therefore, i...

premixed combustion is widely used for reducing pollutant emission from combustion chambers. however, these systems may be sensitive to complex phenomena such as flashback. in the present study flame, flashback and structure of premixed laminar flames are investigated theoretically. the mathematical model includes the axi-symmetric continuity, navier stocks, energy, and species equations. combu...

carbon capture and storage (ccs) systems have relevant energy consumption associated with the co2 capture process. it causes an energy efficiency reduction that diminishes the economic interests and increases the technical uncertainty of these systems. with the objective of improving the system perform-ance and reducing thermodynamic inefficiencies, the exergy analysis has been traditionally ap...

Nowadays, the major challenge of diesel engines development is simultaneous nitrogen oxides and soot emissions reduction without the thermal efficiency drop. Hence, different combustion concepts should be investigated to reach optimum emission and performance conditions in diesel engines without expensive aftertreatment systems. This paper presents the results of a study on a dual fuel (DF) eng...
