The combustion analyzer has become a modern mystery to most service technicians. Let's face it; there isn't a lot of information available on performing a combustion analysis on residential heating ...

[Stay on top of transportation news: Get TTNews in your inbox.] Advanced researchers and engine makers say the internal combustion engine’s ability to be more efficient and run on greener fuels means ...

Can methane flare burners be advanced to produce less methane? This is what a recent study published in Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research hopes to address as a team of researchers from the ...

In a typical four-stroke cycle engine, it is virtually impossible to avoid some form of contamination in otherwise combustible air/fuel charges. But before we dig into the effects of such ...

The field of micro combustors has advanced considerably in recent years, driven by the demand for compact, efficient energy conversion systems for portable power generation and specialised ...

Purdue University researchers are working on methods to use jet ignition technology to help power personal cars and other automobiles. (Stock photo) The same technology used in jets soon may be ...

Researchers use Direct Numerical Simulations to enhance efficiency, reduce pollution in diesel engines. A "cool flame" may sound contradictory, but it's an important element of diesel combustion -- ...

There are many reasons to love EVs. They are silent, powerful, and quick, but perhaps the most overseen characteristic they have is being efficient. Jason Fenske, from Engineering Explained, already ...

Recognizing the importance of internal combustion engines to the nation’s energy security and a need to mitigate their negative environmental aspects, including greenhouse gas emissions, researchers ...

Combustion analysis is all about location. Key measurements are taken in the flue gas after the heat exchanger and prior to any dilution air entering the flue. Typically, the ideal location to measure ...

Although hydrogen—and hydrogen fuel cells—could still play an important role in future transportation, even many hydrogen advocates will admit that hydrogen internal combustion probably won't. It ...

Under the necessary conditions of ignition and proper burn rates (cylinder pressure history), both these conditions can exist in virtually any engine. But, in particular, they certainly apply to race ...
