Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeometrical Synthesis of the Distribution MechanismsFlorian Ion T. PetrescuIn this study the author presents shortly some few original trigonometric methods to make the synthesis of some main distribution mechanisms. One presents four main modules of distribution mechanisms, with rotary cam and translated or rotated tappet plane or with roll, used with priority at the distribution mechanisms from the heat engines with internal combustion. These types of distribution mechanisms … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 13 Apr 2015 · 8,866 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF METHYL ESTER OF COTTON SEED OIL BLEND WITH DIESEL ON CI ENGINEK. Vijayaraj, A. P. SathiyagnanamPetroleum based fuels worldwide have not only resulted in the rapid depletion of conventional energy sources, but have also caused severe air pollution. The search for an alternate fuel has led to many findings due to which a wide variety of alternative fuels are available at our disposal now. The existing studies have revealed the use of vegetable oils for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Oct 2014 · 6,771 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION OF MICRO-COGENERATION SYSTEM FOR CONVENIENCE STORES IN THAILANDSuapphong Kritsanawonghong, Weijun Gao, Pawinee Iamtrakul, Soichiro KurokiThe growing worldwide demand for effective energy utilization has led to numerous techniques for rational use of energy including conservation techniques and renewable energy utilization. Recently, the number of small scale buildings such as minimarts and convenience stores in Thailand has increased rapidly. However, the interest of effective energy utilization has not been focused on the implementation of the new … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 15 May 2014 · 7,454 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Compressed Natural Gas Engine for Nitrogen Oxides ReductionP. M. Diaz, B. Durga PrasadProblem statement: This study describes the use of Reformer Gas (RG) to alter NOx emission in a CNG-fueled HCCI engine. Comparison with diesel, natural gas has a very high octane number (≈120) and high auto-ignition temperature (≈600°C). Composed mostly of methane, natural gas is the only common fuel to manifest relatively pure, single-stage combustion. Other fuels have stronger low-temperature reaction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 15 May 2012 · 7,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Palm oil Biodiesel Blends as a Fuel for Compression Ignition EngineB. Deepanraj, C. Dhanesh, R. Senthil et al.Problem statement: The increasing awareness of the environmental hazards and the alarming levels of air pollution have led to more restrictive regulations on engines emission control in recent years. Approach: The dwindling resources and rising cost of crude oil had resulted in an intensified search for alternate fuels. In the present study biodiesel (palm oil methyl ester) blends with diesel … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 7 Oct 2011 · 8,222 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Efficiency of a Combined Turbocharger Set with Gasoline EngineJarut KunanoppadonProblem statement: The technology of turbocharger has been used with internal combustion engines since 1905 to increase intake air pressure prior to putting it into the cylinders to increase thermal efficiency of the engine. Based on previous researches and uses of turbochargers, the pattern of turbocharger installation remains the same, either in series or in parallel. Therefore, this research aims … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study on the Performance Characteristics of Hydrogen Fueled Port Injection Internal Combustion EngineRosli A. Bakar, Mohammed K. Mohammed, M. M. RahmanThis study was focused on the engine performance of single cylinder hydrogen fueled port injection internal combustion engine. GT-Power was utilized to develop the model for port injection engine. One dimensional gas dynamics was represented the flow and heat transfer in the components of the engine model. The governing equations were introduced first, followed by the performance parameters and model … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,147 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Performance of Uncoated Tungsten Carbide Insert in End Milling Titanium Alloy Ti-6Al 4V through Work Piece PreheatingL. Turnad Ginta, Mohd Amri Lajis, A.K.M. Nurul AminProblem statement: Titanium alloys have been used widely in the aerospace, chemical and petroleum industry because of their high specific strength, fracture resistance and superior resistance to corrosion. Titanium alloys have a very high strength-to-weight ratio making them very suitable for aircraft engines and airframe manufacture. Approach: The use of titanium alloys as engine component materials is due to their … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSomething about the Balancing of Thermal MotorsRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Bilal Akash et al.Internal combustion engines in line (regardless of whether the work in four-stroke engines and two-stroke engines Otto cycle engines, diesel and Lenoir) are, in general, the most used. Their problem of balancing is extremely important for their operation is correct. There are two possible types of balancing: Static and dynamic balance. The total static to make sure that the sum … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2017 · 7,791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEnvironmental Pollution Assessment of Different Diesel Injector Location Of Direct-Injection Diesel Engines: Theoretical StudyEyad S. M. Abu-Nameh, Jehad A. A. YaminAn Analytical investigation on the effect of injector location of a four-stroke DI diesel engine on its pollutants’ emissions was carried out under different injector locations ranging from central to peripheral at different engine speeds ranging from 1000 rpm to 3000 rpm. The simulation results clearly indicated the advantages and disadvantages of the central location over the peripheral one. It … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 6,471 accessesView PDFCite
