Experimental investigation of burning rates of pure ethanol and ethanol blended fuels
Shintre Parag,Vasudevan Raghavan +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a fundamental experimental study to determine the burning rates of ethanol and ethanol-blended fossil fuels is presented, where pure liquid ethanol or its blends with liquid fossil fuels such as gasoline or diesel, has been transpired to the surface a porous sphere using an infusion pump.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flame shapes and burning rates of spherical fuel particles in a mixed convective environment
TL;DR: In this paper, experimental and numerical investigations of spheres burning in a convective environment have been carried out using a finite volume technique based on non-orthogonal semi-collocated grids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of Interaction of Entrained Coal Dust Particles in Lean Methane-Air Premixed Flames
TL;DR: In this article, the interaction of micron-sized coal particles entrained into lean methane-air premixed flames was investigated and the effects of different coal dust concentrations (10−300g/m 3 ) entrained in the mixture of methane-Air at three lean equivalence ratios, ϕ, of 0.75, 0.80 and 0.85, on the laminar burning velocity were studied experimentally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of evaporation and engine characteristics of pine oil biofuel fumigated in the inlet manifold of a diesel engine
R. Vallinayagam,S. Vedharaj,Wenming Yang,Vasudevan Raghavan,C.G. Saravanan,Poh Seng Lee,Kian Jon Chua,Siaw Kiang Chou +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the evaporation characteristics of pine oil droplet were studied through suspended droplet experiment so as to get better insights on pineoil droplet evapuration at various temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transient evaporation of moving water droplets in steam–hydrogen–air environment
TL;DR: In this article, a two-phase numerical simulation of transient vaporization of a moving spherical water droplet is presented to study the evaporation characteristics of moving water droplets under conditions typically observed in nuclear reactor during a loss of coolant accident.
