  2. 2. Development of catalysts for natural gas-fired gas turbine combustors

    Author : Sara Eriksson; Magali Boutonnet; Pio Forzatti; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; AZEP; catalytic combustion; CPO; methane oxidation; palladium; rhodium; support effect; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Due to continuously stricter regulations regarding emissions from power generation processes, further development of existing gas turbine combustors is essential. A promising alternative to conventional flame combustion in gas turbines is catalytic combustion, which can result in ultralow emission levels of NOx, CO and unburned hydrocarbons. READ MORE

  3. 3. Computation and Analysis of EGR Mixing in Internal Combustion Engine Manifolds

    Author : Alexander Sakowitz; Laszlo Fuchs; Angelo Onorati; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulent Mixing; Large Eddy Simulation; URANS; Internal Combustion Engines; Intake Manifolds; T-junction; Exhaust Gas Recirculation;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with turbulent mixing processes occurring in internal combustion engines, when applying exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). EGR is a very efficient way to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in internal combustion engines. READ MORE

  4. 4. Pulsating Combustion - Combustion Characteristics and Reduction of Emissions

    Author : Annika Lindholm; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Exhaust gas recirculation; NOx; Heat Release; Combustion related radicals; Laser based measurements; Pulsating Combustion; Unsteday Flow; Emissions; Combustion; Energy research; Energiforskning;

    Abstract : In the search for high efficiency combustion systems pulsating combustion has been identified as one of the technologies that potentially can meet the objectives of clean combustion and good fuel economy.Pulsating combustion offers low emissions of pollutants, high heat transfer and efficient combustion.

  5. 5. Modeling and Control of EGR on Marine Two-Stroke Diesel Engines

    Author : Xavier Llamas; Lars Eriksson; Gerasimos Theotokatos; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modeling for control; Ship Propulsion; Dynamic Simulation; Exhaust Gas Recirculation; Mean Value Engine Model; Parameterization; Compressor; Model Extrapolation;

    Abstract : The international marine shipping industry is responsible for the transport of around 90% of the total world trade. Low-speed two-stroke diesel engines usually propel the largest trading ships. This engine type choice is mainly motivated by its high fuel efficiency and the capacity to burn cheap low-quality fuels.
