The effects of using coal as transportation fuel to the environment must also be considered. This study will review several aspects of the coal oil combustion process including combustion behavior, flame stability, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 6,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIdentification of Instabilities of the Chip Formation and It's Prediction Model During End Milling of Medium Carbon Steel (S45C)Md. Anayet U Patwari, A. K.M. Nurul Amin, Waleed FarisProblem statement: Chip shape and size varied widely in machining operations. Undesirable chip formation had a detrimental effect on surface finish, work-piece accuracy, chatter and tool life. Approach: This study included the findings of an experimental study on the instabilities of the chip formation and development of a mathematical model based on statistical approach for the prediction of the instability … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,353 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModeling of Nitric Oxide Formation in Single Cylinder Direct Injection Diesel Engine Using Diesel-Water EmulsionK. Kannan, M. UdayakumarProblem statement: Water injection into the combustion chamber of diesel engine found to be one of best method for in-cylinder control of NOx formation. Approach: The combustion of water-diesel emulsion in diesel engine was simulated using a computer program to estimate the heat release rate, cylinder pressure, brake thermal efficiency, brake specific fuel consumption and NO formation. Results: The numerical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,268 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMicrofacies and Sedimentary Environments of Gurpi and Pabdeh Formations in Southwest of IranMohammad BahramiProblem statement: The Upper Cretaceous Gurpi and lower Tertiary Pabdeh formations as units of folded Zagros Zone were studied in three different regions (Tang-e-Abolhiat, Tang-e-Zanjiran and Maharloo) in Fars Province, Iran. Approach: Gurpi formation consisted of thin to medium sized layers of gray marl and marlstone interbedded with thin layers of argillaceous limestone and shale. The dominant microfacies in this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,735 accessesView PDFCite
