  1. 1. Studies on Diesel sprays under non-reacting and reacting conditions

    Author : Chengjun Du; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; diffusion flame; OH radical; ethanol; spray vaporization; soot formation; cavitation; turbulent; OH* chemiluminescence; laser extinction; LAS; Diesel sprays;

    Abstract : Methods for reducing engine-out emissions are urgently needed to mitigate climate change and air pollution. In diesel engines, the quality of fuel-air mixing and the subsequent combustion process strongly affect fuel efficiency and engine-out emissions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Atmospheric Chemistry of Volatile Organic Compounds: Oxidation Products, Mechanisms and Secondary Organic Aerosol Formation

    Author : Julia Hammes; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SOA; VOC; anthropogenic; biogenic; FIGAERO; CIMS; HOMs; ELVOCs; atmospheric oxidation; chemical mechanism; NOx; limonene; a-pinene; TMB; ozone; nitrate; OH; radical chemistry; RO2; G-FROST; GO:PAM;

    Abstract : The results from this work are a piece in understanding the complex puzzle of atmospheric aerosol formation. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formed by the oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in the atmosphere is a key component of air pollution with a strong negative impact on human health and influence on climate, but its formation is poorly understood.

  3. 3. X-ray spectroscopy on diatomic and cationic molecules

    Author : Ludvig Kjellsson; Jan-Erik Rubensson; Marcus Agåker; Monica Turcato; Michael Meyer; John Bozek; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; X-ray absorption spectroscopy; resonant inelastic X-ray scattering; cationic molecule; dinitrogen; dioxygen; carbon monoxide; aqueous hydroxyl radical; lifetime-vibrational interference; RIXS; XAS; LVI; N2; O2; CO; H2O; OH;

    Abstract : X-ray spectroscopy have been used to study the electronic structure of diatomic and cationic molecules. X-ray absorption spectra of the molecular cations N2+, O2+, and CO+ have been measured. READ MORE

  4. 4. Development and application of laser diagnostics - from laboratory devices towards practical combustion engines

    Author : Zhenkan Wang; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : Combustion diagnostics; Laser induced fluorescence LIF ; Ultra-high-speed; Burst-mode laser; Ballistic imaging; Particle imaging velocimetry; Laser Doppler anemometry; Turbulent premixed combustion; Plasma; Internal combustion engine; Partially premixed combustion PPC ; Auto-ignition; OH radical; CH2O formaldehyde ; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Wang;

    Abstract : For many decades, research work on combustion has been focused on improving combustion efficiency and reducing harmful emissions. Laser diagnostics is one of the best ways to investigate the combustion process and emission formation as it is non-intrusive and it has high spatiotemporal resolution. READ MORE

  5. 5. Application of Laser-based Diagnostics to a Prototype Gas Turbine Burner at Selected Pressures

    Author : Ronald Whiddon; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; OH; Laser Diagnostics; Elevated Pressure; Syngas; DLE; NOx; Combustion; Gas Turbine; PIV; PLIF; Pilot; SGT-750; Fysicumarkivet A:2014:Whiddon;

    Abstract : The matured laser-diagnostic techniques of planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) and particle image velocimetry (PIV) were applied to a prototype gas turbine burner operating on various fuels. The work was performed to provide verification of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) models of the combustion of atypical fuels in a gas turbine combustor. READ MORE
