A study on the amount of pilot injection and its effects on rich and lean boundaries of the premixed CNG/air mixture for a CNG/diesel dual-fuel engine
Lin, Zhiqiang; Su, Wanhua - In: International Journal of Global Energy Issues 20 (2003) 3, pp. 290-301
A sequential port injection, lean-burn, fully electronically-controlled compressed natural gas (CNG)/diesel dual …-fuel engine has been developed based on a turbo-charged and inter-cooled direct injection (D.I.) diesel engine. During the … optimisation of engine overall performance, the effects of pilot diesel and premixed CNG/air mixture equivalence ratio on emissions …

Recent Advances in the Characterization of Gaseous and Liquid Fuels by Vibrational Spectroscopy
Kiefer, Johannes - In: Energies 8 (2015) 4, pp. 3165-3197
Most commercial gaseous and liquid fuels are mixtures of multiple chemical compounds. In recent years, these mixtures became even more complicated when the suppliers started to admix biofuels into the petrochemical basic fuels. As the properties of such mixtures can vary with composition, there...

A broader perspective on the inflationary effects of energy price shocks
Kilian, Lutz; Zhou, Xiaoqing - 2023
Consumers purchase energy in many forms. Sometimes energy goods are consumed directly, for instance, in the form of gasoline used to operate a vehicle, electricity to light a home, or natural gas to heat a home. At other times, the cost of energy is embodied in the prices of goods and services...
