Atmospheric dispersion pollution modelling is of great and actual concern in the scientific international community. Many dispersion models have been developed and used to estimate the downwind ambient concentration of air pollutants from sources such as industrial plants, vehicular traffic or accidental chemical release. Among them, Gaussian model is perhaps the most commonly used model type. It is often used to predict the dispersion of air pollution plumes originated from ground-level or elevated ...

Nowadays, transport and deposition of aerosol particles (PM2.5, PM10, TSP) caused by industrial plants, environmental applications and transports, are of great concern to public health. Despite the establishment by the European Union of emission standards (European directive 2008/50/CE e.g) to control the limits of particulates in the air, the emissions by industrial plants are still not accurately monitored. In particular, the interaction between plume dispersion and obstacles, such as buildings, ...

It is well known that acetylene is a high flammable and explosive compound. In comparison with commercial liquid fuels, very wide flammability limits and a low Octane Number have relegated the acetylene into the "iperdetonat" fuels category. Thus, it is impossible to run an internal combustion engine on acetylene without a detonation phenomena control system. The current paper deals with a theoretical and experimental analysis of an internal combustion engine running on acetylene and alcohol. A standard ...

The present paper deals with the study of the combustion of reforming gas in a small size Internal Combustion Engine. Therefore, mathematical models of both reforming process and internal combustion engine were implemented. In particular, steams reforming of glycerol to produce synthesis gas and spark ignition four strokes ICE were studied. The reforming process mathematical model was verified using experimental data. Synthesis gas was used to feed the ICE with different syngas and engine configuration. ...

The present paper describes an experimental evaluation on the mechanical behavior of fish scales from Cyprinus carpio using a novel experimental approach. Scales were obtained from three different positions about the body (head, mid-length and tail) and as a function of moisture (from hydrated to fully dehydrated). Mechanical properties were determined from uniaxial tension experiments where the full-field deformation behavior was quantified using microscopic Digital Image Correlation (DIC). Results ...

Many studies have been carried out with the aid of thermal scanners for the analysis of the thermoelastic effect on materials. In particular, for tensile stresses, the gradient is negative and the thermal variations are proportional to the stress applied in the purely elastic phase. Thermoelastic analysis of materials from the static tests have shown that it is possible to detect information on the dynamic (fatigue) behavior. One of the main problems that occur in following the local thermal behavior ...

The present paper deals with the study of the performance of a heavy-duty gas turbine running on biofuels. In particular, synthesis gas from glycerol steam reforming was used to feed the combustion turbine. Engine performances were compared with methane fed ones. Therefore, a mathematical model of the gas turbine was implemented using GateCycle software. Model calibration was made using gas turbine on-design parameters, while performance test results were compared with experimental running data. ...

Abstract A hysteresis cycle can define the variation in mechanical characteristics of fatigue life and failure response. Traditional analysis is performed using force‐displacement signals derived from the testing equipment, but this approach is prone to large errors due to clearances and slips in the measuring chain. For this reason, the authors here propose a novel setup able to assess accurately the strain status of specimens by digital image correlation (DIC) and a procedure to calculate the hysteresis ...

Fuel laminar burning velocity is an important parameter in internal combustion engine modeling and combustion analysis. The present paper deals with the development of a mathematical correlation able to provide laminar burning velocity for fuels/air mixture at different thermodynamic conditions. Therefore, a mathematical investigation of laminar burning velocity for most significant and used fuels was carried out. Fifth order logarithmic polynomial functions were implemented to predict the propagating ...

In order to study the turbine-induced damping, an experimental setup was built. The experimental setup consists of a wave flume 2000 mm long, 190 mm high and 96 mm wide with an impermeable beach as a dissipative system at the end to avoid wave reflections. The system is all built in Plexiglas to allow optical real-time observation. An Oscillating ...

The energetic behaviour of the material under low-cycle fatigue (LCF) can be controlled by the hysteresis cycle in order to define the variation of the mechanical characteristics and to forecast the fatigue and the failure response. The traditional analysis is performed using the force-displacement signals derived by the testing machine that can be coupled with other measuring methodologies. In the present paper, the authors have used the Digital Image Correlation (D.I.C.) to better define the specimen ...

One of the main problems is the motion of the measuring zone, associated with its compliance under increasing load.
