TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of natural gas composition on combustion and emission characteristics of internal combustion engines (ICEs) were reviewed and reported the most achievements obtained by researchers in this field.
Abstract: As global energy demand rises, natural gas (NG) plays an important strategic role in energy supply. Natural gas is the cleanest fossil fuel that has been investigated extensively for use in spark-ignition (SI) and compression-ignition (CI) engines. This paper reviews the research on the effects of natural gas composition on combustion and emission characteristics of natural gas fueled internal combustion engines (ICEs) and reports the most achievements obtained by researchers in this field. It has been reported that the engine performance and emission are greatly affected by varying compositions of natural gas. The most important NG fuel property is the Wobbe number (WN). Generally, it was agreed by researchers that the fuels with higher hydrocarbons, higher WN, and higher energy content exhibited better fuel economy and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions were also increased for gases with higher levels of higher WN, while total hydrocarbons (THCs), carbon monoxide (CO), showed some reductions for these gases. On the other hand, particulate matter (PM) emissions did not show any fuel effects. Moreover, adding of small fractions of higher alkanes, such as ethane and propane, significantly improved ignition qualities of natural gas engines. The results presented provide a good insight for researchers to pursue their future research on natural gas fueled ICEs.

TL;DR: In this paper, a low-cost method for generating circular polarization in a dielectric resonator antenna is proposed, which consists of four rectangular layers, each one being rotated by an angle of 30 degrees relative to its adjacent layers.
Abstract: A novel low-cost method for generating circular polarization in a dielectric resonator antenna is proposed. The antenna comprises four rectangular dielectric layers, each one being rotated by an angle of 30 ° relative to its adjacent layers. Utilizing such an approach has provided a circular polarization over a bandwidth of 6% from 9.55 to 10.15 GHz. This has been achieved in conjunction with a 21% impedance-matching bandwidth over the same frequency range. Also, the radiation efficiency of the proposed circularly polarized dielectric resonator antenna is 93% in this frequency band of operation
