DISINTEGRATION of vitreous carbon exposed to potassium vapour is thought to result 1 from the enhancement—by the formation of intercalation compounds—of stresses already present in the structure.

In this paper a combustion diagnostic method is presented where measured pressure data is used to calculate the heat release, local temperatures and concentrations of NO and other species. This is ...

Rocket combustion and heat transfer dynamics encompass a range of interlinked phenomena critical to the design and operation of modern rocket engines. The combustion process involves rapidly reacting ...

Evaluation of the combustion process in a wall-wetting direct-injection diesel was accomplished by calculation of the apparent rate of heat release from the measured pressure history for several ...

Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www ...

Researchers from Tomsk Polytechnic University, together with their colleagues, conducted experiments and predicted with high ...

The fuse wire is used for igniting the sample to be burned in the oxygen in the bomb. About 10 cm of wire should be used. The wire is connected to the electrodes that pass through the bomb lid. To ...

Mahle has been granted a patent for a heat exchanger designed for internal combustion engines. The invention features a dual fluid channel system, reinforced S-shaped edge tabs, and a frame part with ...
