Experimental study on combustion stability and performance of hydrogen-enriched compressed natural gas of a free-piston linear generator

Free Piston linear Generator (FPLG) engine fueled by compressed natural gas (CNG) has recently gained increased research attention. However, due to the low-velocity burning and poor lean limit of CNG fuel, the FPLG engine combustion stability, performance, and efficiency are still low. Hydrogen has a greater burning velocity with wider flame limits that could extend the lean burn limits and combustion characteristics of CNG. This paper compares pure CNG and 10% hydrogen-enriched CNG at various ignition speeds (0.6 ms, 0.8 m/s, and 1 m/s), injection positions (0 mm, 5 mm, 10 mm and 15 mm), and lambda ratios (0.9, 1.4 and 1.7) on the combustion characteristics, performance, and conversion efficiency are duly discussed. The findings show that the FPLG combustion stability limits increase with the hydrogen addition into the CNG. The CNG in-cylinder pressure increases significantly when the injection position is advanced, whereas the hydrogen addition reduces the influence of the injection position. The heat release rate increases by 15.62% and 23.72% with hydrogen addition, corresponding to the advanced and retarded injection positions. Consequently, the hydrogen addition increases the power RMS to 209.21 W and 232.64 W with an increment of 3.46% and 3.13%, respectively. Conclusively, the hydrogen addition into the CNG evidently shortens the combustion duration while improving the heat release rate, combustion stability, power RMS, Cycle-to-Cycle variation, and conversion efficiency.     

Studying the rheology,optical clarity and surface tension of an acrylic/melamine automotive clearcoat loaded with different additives

Acrylic/melamine based automotive clearcoats were prepared by inclusion of functional and conventional additives. The conventional additives used were based on polysiloxane chains without any reactive groups. On the other hand, the functional additives were based on polyacrylate and polysiloxane backbones. The additives were added to the clearcoat formulations at different concentrations. Surface tension, optical properties and rheological behaviors of the clearcoats were studied by tensiometer, gonio-spectrophotometer, rheometric mechanical spectrometer (RMS) and Brookfield techniques. Results showed that addition of both conventional and functional additives reduced the surface tension of the clearcoat up to a certain value of the additive concentration. It was seen that functional additives could reduce surface tension much greater than the conventional ones. The coating clarity and transparency were not affected in presence of conventional additives. However, the functional additives, especially the one having higher molecular weight, reduced the coating transparency. The clearcoat viscosity was increased using functional additives. A shear thickening behavior of the clearcoats loaded with functional additives was seen. The conventional additives did not change the clearcoat viscosity. It was concluded that the additive functionality, molecular weight and chemical structure were influential parameters affecting the final properties.

Macroscopic properties of liquid-solid circulating fluidized bed with viscous liquid medium

Experiments were conducted in a liquid-solid circulating fluidized bed to study the effect of liquid viscosity and solids inventory on pressure gradient, critical transitional liquid velocity, onset average solids holdup, axial solids holdup distribution, average solids holdup and solids circulation rate in circulating fluidization regime with riser operated in fixed inventory mode. The results indicate that critical transitional liquid velocity decreases with increase in liquid viscosity. The onset average solids holdup, on the other hand, increases with increase in either auxiliary liquid velocity or solids inventory. The variation of axial solids holdup distribution, average solids holdup and solids circulation rate with liquid viscosity when solid inventory was 0.15 m was dissimilar with either 0.25 m or 0.35 m solid inventory. Correlations were proposed for estimating the average solids holdup and are satisfactorily compared with experimental values.

Efficient texture analysis for industrial inspection

This paper describes a convolution-based approach to the analysis of images containing few texture classes. Segmentation of foreground and background textures, or detection of boundaries between similarly textured objects, is demonstrated. The application to industrial inspection applications is demonstrated. Near frame-rate performance on low-cost hardware is possible, since only convolution with small kernels is used. A new algorithm to optimize convolution kernels for the required texture analysis task is presented. A key feature of the paper is the industrial readiness of the techniques described.
