A.Here's a pressure-volume diagram for a combustion engine. Although rough, it is an approximation of the so-called air-standard cycle. '' Point (a) is at atmospheric pressure, after which the air is ...

In space, fuel burns in a sphere. The FLEX-2 experiment studies this type of combustion. In space, a drop of fuel burns in a sphere, symmetrically sucking in oxygen and producing heat and gas equally ...

What happens to a material that is burned in different conditions? To investigate this question, researchers use a laser camera that photographs the material in a two-dimensional layer, known as LS ...

As the world moves away from purely internal combustion engined (ICE) vehicles thanks to strict regulations in ...

Most aspects of a cylinder head are relatively straightforward and easily grasped. Valve size, deck thickness and combustion chamber volume are often topics of discussion and qualify the design's ...
