Combustion kinetic studies of future transportation fuels and intermediates
Lokachari, Nitin (NUI Galway, 2020-10-22)The transportation sector requires an abundant supply of fossil and/or bio-derived fuels, which all produce significant quantities of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The transportation sector is expected to account for ... -
Computational modelling of emissions from gas turbines: Ensuring experimental reliability and quantifying emissions uncertainty
Yousefian Najafabadi, Sajjad (NUI Galway, 2019-02-18)Global environmental concerns and the increasing amount of power generated using gas turbines have led to the development of dry low emission (DLE) combustion systems to minimize the NOx and CO pollutants. Improvements in ... -
An optical investigation into post compression aerodynamics in a dual opposed piston rapid compression machine
Meier, Patrick (NUI Galway, 2020-02-07)Experimental chemical kineticists use rapid compression machines (RCMs) to verify models of global reactivity of fuels in as an ideal environment as possible, similar to those experienced in internal combustion engines. ...
