The appropriate maintenance strategy is essential for maintaining the thermal power plant highly reliable. The thermal power plant is a complex system that consists of various subsystems connected either in series or parallel configuration. The boiler-furnace (BF) system is one of the most...

A previously developed and validated zero-dimensional, multi-zone, thermodynamic combustion model for the prediction of spark ignition (SI) engine performance and nitric oxide (NO) emissions has been extended to include second-law analysis. The main characteristic of the model is the division of...

One of the major problems associated with HCCI combustion engine application is lack of direct control for combustion timing. A proposed solution for combustion timing control is using a binary fuel blend in which two fuels with different auto-ignition characteristics are blended at various...
