Laminar burning characteristics of ammonia and n-butanol blend fuels
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the laminar burning speed and Markstein length of n-butanol/ammonia/air mixtures at various equivalence ratios (0.8-1.4) using the spherical flame method with the nonlinear extrapolation model (NQ) in a cylindrical constant-volume combustion bomb.

Abstract: O presente trabalho propõe o estudo e desenvolvimento de um algoritmo para controle do avanço de ignição em malha fechada para um motor Flex de 1.6 l utilizando uma unidade de desenvolvimento modelo Flex-ECU através do software ASCET. A relação entre o torque produzido pelo motor em função de parâmetros como: avanço de ignição, rotação do motor, carga (pressão do ar admitido), fator ar/combustível da mistura e da composição do combustível é estudada, a fim de se obter o mapa base de avanço que produza o maior torque possível para cada condição sem a ocorrência de detonação no motor. A partir dos dados coletados e análises complementares em relação à pressão de combustão do cilindro, temperatura do gás de escape e indicador sonoro da detonação, o comportamento da detonação para o presente motor é estudado para o desenvolvimento do controle do avanço em malha fechada, permitindo o gerenciamento obter o maior torque de saída o possível independentemente da composição do combustível utilizado e de perturbações no sistema.

Hydrogen bond network dynamics of heavy water resolved by alcohol hydration under an intense laser.
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors employed an isotopic substitution method to avoid spectral overlap between the alcohol hydroxyl groups and water hydrogen bonds and showed spectrometrically that under the strong pulse laser, the low mixing ratio (VA < 20%) of alcohol can strengthen the H-bond network structure of D2O through compression.

Environmental, economic, and energetic costs and benefits of biodiesel and ethanol biofuels
TL;DR: Transportation biofuels such as synfuel hydrocarbons or cellulosic ethanol, if produced from low-input biomass grown on agriculturally marginal land or from waste biomass, could provide much greater supplies and environmental benefits than food-basedBiofuels.
