  2. 1. Instrumental and methodological developments for isotope dilution analysis of gaseous mercury species

    Author : Tom Larsson; Erik Björn; Holger Hintelmann; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mercury; gas; species; speciation analysis; isotope dilution analysis; permeation tubes; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with instrumental and methodological developments for speciation analysis of gaseous mercury (Hg(g)), based on isotope dilution analysis (IDA). The studied species include Hg0, (CH3)2Hg, CH3HgX and HgX2 (where X symbolises a negatively charged counter ion in the form of a halide or hydroxyl ion). READ MORE

  4. 2. Diluted Operation of a Heavy-Duty Natural Gas Engine - Aiming at Improved Effciency, Emission and Maximum Load

    Author : Mehrzad Kaiadi; Förbränningsmotorer; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulence; Natural gas engine; Dilution limit; VGT; Cyclic variation; Closed-loop control; Heavy-duty;

    Abstract : Most heavy-duty engines are diesel operated. Severe emission regulations, high fuel prices, high technology costs (e.g. catalysts, fuel injection systems) and unsustainably in supplying fuel are enough reasons to convenience engine developers to explore alternative technologies or fuels.

  5. 3. Impacts of alternative combustion diluents and hydrogen addition on a swirl-stabilized flame related to gas turbine application

    Author : Mao Li; Kraftverksteknik; []
    Keywords : lean premixed combustion; Swirl-stabilized flame; Gas turbine combustion; Flame dilution; H2 addition; Lean blowout; CO emission; PVC; CH chemiluminescence; Inverse Abel transform; PIV; POD;

    Abstract : The global energy tendency leads to increasing attention on clean combustion technologies in order to eliminate adverse impacts on the environment. The utilization of oxyfuel combustion (CO2 acts as the only combustion dilution), flame diluents, and hydrogen fuel in gas turbine combustion provides a promising solution to reduce combustion pollutant emissions.

  6. 4. FRC in acute lung injury. Experimental and clinical studies

    Author : Christian Rylander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Airway obstruction; Acute lung injury; Acute respiratory distress syndrome; Attenuation; Computed tomography; End-expiratory lung volume; Functional residual capacity; Gas dilution; Hounsfield unit; Lung volume; Oleic acid; Recruitment; Time constant;

    Abstract : Respiratory failure due to acute lung injury (ALI) of diffuse inflammatory origin is a major cause of respiratory failure treated in intensive care units. In ALI, FRC is reduced by various mechanisms associated with hypoxemia and consolidation of the lung. READ MORE

  7. 5. Volatility and number measurement of diesel engine exhaust particles

    Author : Hanna Bernemyr; Hans-Erik Ångström; Nigel Clark; KTH; []
    Keywords : particle emissions; measuring methods; particle number measurements; dilution; rotating disc diluter; v-TDMA; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Today, emission legislations for engine exhaust particles are mass based. The engines of today are low-emitting with respect to particle mass, with the emissions approaching the detection limit of the current measurement method. This calls for new and improved measurement methods. READ MORE
