Spring harvested corn stover was used for direct combustion in a 146 kW dual chamber boiler designed for wood logs … combustion chamber at a rate of 10.5 to 12.8 kg/h over a 24-h period, with three replications, and compared to a control wood … combustion trial (12.1 kg/h during 24 h). The overall heat transfer efficiency for stover was lower than for wood (57% <em …

internal combustion engines and as a fuel cell in vehicles. To use hydrogen as a fuel of internal combustion engine, engine … design should be considered for avoiding abnormal combustion. As a result it can improve engine efficiency, power output and … reduce NOx emissions. The emission of fuel cell is low as compared to conventional vehicles but as penalty, fuel cell …

This paper investigated the performance, combustion and emission characteristics of diesel engine fueled by biodiesel … thermal efficiency at higher engine loads. Furthermore, the characteristics of carbon monoxide (CO) emissions are also changed …

The combustion and emissions of n-butanol/biodiesel dual-fuel injection were investigated on a diesel engine based on … compared to the late-injection due to lower combustion temperature. The soot emissions are comparable for both early- and late … biodiesel reaction. Increasing premixed ratios can retard the combustion phasing and reduce the pressure rise rate, while the …
