4 days ago · A fire piston that produced heat and fire by the compression of air in a small tube of bamboo was a complex device invented and used in southeastern Asia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. About 1800 a metal fire piston was independently invented in Europe.
3 days ago · Internal-combustion engine, any of a group of devices in which combustion’s reactants (oxidizer and fuel) and products serve as the engine’s working fluids. Work results from the hot gaseous combustion products acting on the engine’s moving surfaces, such as the face of a piston, a turbine blade, or a nozzle.
5 days ago · The combustion of gas is relatively free of soot, carbon monoxide, and the nitrogen oxides associated with the burning of other fossil fuels. In addition, sulfur dioxide emissions, another major air pollutant, are almost nonexistent.

3 days ago · In order to investigate the effect of coal spontaneous combustion (CSC) gases such as CO, C2H4, C2H6, C3H8, C2H2, and H2 on the laminar burning velocity (LBV) of the CH4/air premixed flame, a constant volume chamber and a high-speed camera were used to measure the LBV of a 90% (in vol) CH4 and 10% CSC gas mixed fuel at an initial temperature of 300 K and over a wide equivalence ratio range ...
4 days ago · Abstract. The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is highly susceptible to climate change, and nitrogen-containing organic compounds (NOCs) in fine particulate matter (PM2.5) represent one of the largest uncertainties with respect to their impact on the climate in high-altitude areas. Previous studies have shown that NOCs play a vital role in the nitrogen budget of PM2.5. However, our understanding of the ...
