Abstract:
The acetylene ignition process in combustion thermal spray is typical of a laminar diffusion jet. It has all the features of a free jet. The aim of this research is to obtain the detail sparking ignition evolution process and the chemical reaction time scale and calculate the critical radius and minimum energy input required to produce a self-propagating flame in an acetylene fuel jet. Experiments are carried out by using a unique high-speed continuous CCD camera. The results show that the full sparking ignition time needs about 8 ms and this time scale can be used in the calculation of the flame flow fields in the combustion thermal spray jet.

Abstract:
A numerical cycle model is developed to investigate the soot production in a direct injection (DI) diesel engine. The Surovikin and Fusco models for soot formation and the Nagle model for soot oxidation are used with the KIVA-3V code. In the Surovikin model, carbon radicals are produced from pyrolysis of fuel and soot particles grow through collisions with fuel molecules. In the Fusco model, the carbon radicals and acetylene are formed from pyrolysis of fuel. There, acetylene works for the growth of soot particles. From investigation of the e. ects of the operating conditions on soot formation and oxidation, it is found that soot formation is mainly governed by fuel concentration and combustion temperature and soot oxidation is more dependent on combustion temperature. The air-fuel ratio a. ects soot formation more than injection timing. For a stoichiometric mixture ratio, soot formation is increased because of the high combustion temperature.

Full text
Abstract:
This study investigated possible reasons for the failure of the acetylene inhibition assay of denitrification in highly reducing environments and resulted in the isolation of a denitrifying Cytophaga from soil enriched by anaerobic incubation with glucose, nitrous oxide (N(,2)O), acetylene (C(,2)H(,2)), and sulfide (S('2-)). Such soil enrichments and pure cultures of the isolated Cytophaga (Is-11) reduced N(,2)O rapidly even in the presence of a normally inhibitory concentration of C(,2)H(,2) (4 kPa), providing S('2-) was present 8.0 umol (g soil)('-1) or 0.4 umol (mL culture)('-1) . The observed reaction appears to be unique to this soil Cytophaga since other organisms tested, using the same or similar experimental conditions, failed to show this response.
The isolate was characterized, after extensive comparative studies with five Cytophaga johnsonae strains, as a pigmented, Gram-negative, non-motile, gliding filamentous bacillus. Although these features established a taxonomic link with the family Cytophagaceae, the inability of Is-11 to digest chitin and DNA base composition of about 42.5 mol% (G+C) make the organism's specific affiliation uncertain.

Thesis, McGill University, 2006. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=99004.

Full text
Abstract:
Cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) is a novel, accurate, sensitive and non-intrusive laser-based technique using multiple-paths molecular absorption to measure weak absolute concentrations of atoms or molecules (ppm range or better). In CRDS, a laser pulse is coupled into an optical cavity equipped of highly reflective mirrors mounted at both ends and containing the absorbing medium. The laser pulse experiences numerous round trips inside the cavity thus considerably increasing the absorption path. The decay of the laser pulse intensity leaking out of one of the cavity mirrors is monitored in real-time and the concentration of the species is obtained by fitting a Beer-Lambert's decay to the measured signal. The resulting signal is an exponentially decaying function with a 1/e cavity ring-down (tau), proportional to the absolute concentration of the absorbing species.
The main objective of this Master's project was to develop a CRDS system to be used for the study of plasma-surface interactions. The CRDS cavity measures 92 cm in length and has a spatial resolution of 1 mm2, and is flexible enough in its design to accommodate a low-pressure glow discharge or a miniature atmospheric pressure plasma torch at the centre of the cavity. In this study, the low-pressure glow discharge plasma is used to produce CH radicals from a 95% Ar - 5% C2H2 gas mixture. Preliminary optical emission spectroscopy- (OES) measurements near 431 rim indicated the presence of CH radicals in the plasma. For the CRDS experiments, the electronic transition A2Delta ← X2pi of the CH radical was probed using a tunable dye laser (10Hz, 5 ns pulse, 0.8 cm -1 linewidth) tuned to 431.131 nm, and at a pulse energy of approximately 30-40 muJ. The CRDS system was able to measure CH radical concentrations ranging from 1.78x1012cm-3 to 2.18 x10 12 cm-3.

In this research, the effect of the microporous layer composition on the anion exchange membrane fuel cell performance has been systematically investigated. In particular, two types of commercial carbon materials, acetylene black and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT), were used to fabricate the microporous layer with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) content. Different weight ratios of acetylene to MWCNT ratios of acetylene to MWCNT have been prepared and coated on the gas diffusion substrate which made up carbon fiber paper with hydrophobic treatment. Furthermore, the better air permeability and lower in-plane electric resistance were obtained from the samples with more MWCNT addition, which are due to the higher mud crack density and dimension formed on the MPL and higher electrical conductivity of MWCNT, respectively. From the surface morphology analysis, the SEM results showed that the rougher MPL surface with more and larger mud cracks was observed on the samples with higher amount of MWCNT. This can be attributed to the agglomeration of carbon nanotubes in the MPL slurry. For single AEMFC testing, the results showed that the power densities of an H2/O2 AEMFC using GDLs with coated MPL prepared by various weight ratios of acetylene to MWCNT being 1:0, 4:1, 1:1, and 1:2 were 396, 411, 518, and 354 mW/cm2, respectively. This indicated that, among prepared MPL samples, the GDL with MPL containing the 1:1 ratio of acetylene to MWCNT exhibited the best cell performance which can be ascribed to the better air permeability and electric conductivity. However, higher MWCNT addition in the MPL compared to acetylene (1:2 ratio) will form too big mud cracks on the MPL surface, which impact on the water removal and catalyst layer coating, and thereby, significantly reduce the cell performance. Thus, although the MWCNT can be beneficial for both air permeability and electric conductivity of the GDL, due to the easy agglomeration of MWCNT, the amount of MWCNT in the MPL should be carefully optimized to achieve higher cell performance.

Abstract:
Conventional non-catalytic fuel reforming provides low efficiency, large amounts of char and tar and limited control on chemical composition of the syngas produced. In this paper volume distributed reaction technique is used to enhance reformate quality as compared to conventional reforming that uses non-catalytic reforming. Reforming of middle distillate fuels typically utilize preheats of 300–600°C[1,2]. This work investigates the intermediate regimes between volume distributed reaction regime and conventional flame regime for the reforming of JP8 through the chemical and mixing time scale. The results showed that reformate concentrations of fixed gases and most low molecular weight hydrocarbons changed gradually with air preheats. Reaction regime did not drastically change reformate products except for acetylene. In conventional flame regime acetylene concentration rapidly increased upon on entering the reactor.

Abstract:
Abstract Chromium oxide coatings are currently produced predominantly by the plasma spray process utilizing the high process temperatures required to fully soften the high melting point chromium oxide powder. The development of the HVOF process, combining the relatively high flame temperatures of hydrogen, propylene or propane fuel gases with the notably high particle velocities generated by the process, is known to produces dense, low porosity coatings. By utilizing acetylene, the highest flame temperature fuel gas commercially available, and acetylene based mixtures, the HVOF process can be used to successfully spray chromium oxide powder previously impractical for HVOF systems. This paper describes the results of a programme of work carried out to study the effect of gas related parameters on the properties of Cr2O3, coatings deposited by HVOF using acetylene and acetylene based mixtures as fuel gases. It further describes the engineering of gas supply systems to overcome the working limitations of acetylene pressures and flowrates to achieve acceptable gas pressures and flow rates and subsequent particle temperature and velocity.

Abstract:
Gaseous fuels are good alternative fuels to improve the energy crisis of today’s situation due to its clean burning characteristics. However, the incidence of backfire and knock remains a significant barrier in commercialization. With the invention of latest technology, the above barriers are eliminated. One such technique is timed injection of water into the intake port. In the present investigation, acetylene was aspirated in the intake manifold of a single cylinder diesel engine, with a gas flow rate of 390 g/h, along with water injected in the intake port, to overcome the backfire and knock problems in gaseous dual fuel engine. The brake thermal efficiency and emissions such as NOx, smoke, CO, HC, CO2 and exhaust gas temperature were studied. Dual fuel operation of acetylene induction with injection of water results in lowered NOx emissions with complete elimination of backfire and knock at the expense of brake thermal efficiency.

This study outlines the development of a new chemical kinetic surrogate aviation fuel air reaction mechanism which models up to four ring Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) growth. A sensitivity analysis has been conducted to guide us in improving the correlation with modelled and measured species’ profiles in an n-decane – air combustion environment. It was reassuring that the mechanism could be successfully applied to an out of sample set of experimental profiles for acetylene combustion and showed a noticeable improvement over a previous reaction model. In order to calculate the soot volume fraction, a previously developed soot model was employed that accounts for soot particle coagulation, aggregation and surface growth. The impact of pressure, equivalence ratio and residence time on soot formation for a surrogate aviation fuel-air combustion in a Perfectly Stirred Reactor was also investigated. Generally speaking, the level of soot increased with increasing pressure, residence time and equivalence ratio.

Abstract Recent studies have shown that the addition of nanomaterials to fuels can improve combustion characteristics. A downside, however, is that these mixtures are unstable and prone to phase separation. Finding stable nanomaterial-fuel mixtures are required to make these mixtures viable for practical use. Current research studied the stability of Renewable jet fuel combined with multiple nanomaterial additives being acetylene black, graphene nanoparticles, and multiwalled carbon nanotubes, at 1.0% w/w ratio. Results were compared with prior research and it was shown that renewable jet fuel had a similar effect on settling as soy biodiesel and the results indicated that the fuel’s bulk viscosity was not a major factor determining the stability of the nanofuel.

Abstract A computer code has been developed to simulate the combustion flowfield of an axisymmetric jet flame impinging normally on to a flat plate. Premixed oxygen and acetylene emerges from the jet nozzle, and complexities include turbulence and high temperature chemical kinetics. In CVD diamond synthesis, parameters of interest include the fuel-oxygen ratio and the distance from the heat nozzle to the surface. Combustion flow field predictions are given for acetylene and oxygen flames (all fuel rich), axisymmetric-vertical impingement on an adiabatic surface to show the effects of varying the nozzle-substrate separation distance, nozzle size, overall equivalence ratio and flow rate on the flowfield and substrate temperature. These have been shown to have dramatic effects on the rate of diamond growth on the surface.

Full text
Abstract:
A series of experiments were performed on a flat honeycomb burner with air coflow to ensure laminar flow in order to study the effect of Acetylene/Argon mixture to the natural gas (NG) on the temperature distribution and flame structure. The burner assembly could be traversed in the horizontal and vertical direction controlled by using a field point system to scan the flame radially and axially. The flow rate of fuel, diluents and air was measured using differential pressure flow meters. The whole supply lines were calibrated. Methane gas, air and Acetylene/Argon mixture were injected through mixing pipes controlled with solenoid valves handled with a LabVIEW program. The combustion flame was in room atmospheric conditions with room disturbances controlled to treat such flames as free jet diffusion flames. The laminar flame axial and radial temperature profile was measured using a shielded-aspirated platinum/ Platinum-13% Rhodium thermocouple (type R). Flame images were taken using Canon EOS camera with CMOS sensor, up to 3.7 fps. The fuel used was NG with flow rate from 180 up to 520 ml/min. Ar flow rate up to 350 ml/min and C2H2 up to 100 ml/min with a constant coflow air of 3 l/min. The choice of the different Investigated cases was based on flame stability. The results obtained indicate the following: – In case of using air, NG and Ar, the fuel rich zone tends to vanish and in case of injecting Ar and acetylene mixture in addition of NG and air the front zone tends to vanish and the flame became mainly diffusion. – Maximum temperature was at the flame tip in all cases. Increasing Ar percentage up to 50% decreases tip temperature to nearly 870°C compared to the typical case (about 1000 °C); increasing acetylene content over 15% resulted in dense soot formation.

Abstract:
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) have been synthesized by the pyrolysis of acetylene using hydrogen decrepitated Mischmetal (Mm) based AB3 alloy hydride catalyst. MWNTs have been characterized by SEM, TEM, Raman and XRD studies. Pt-supported MWNTs (Pt/MWNTs) have been prepared by chemical reduction method using functionalized MWNTs. Composites of Pt/MWNTs and Pt/C have been used as electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC). Cathode catalyst with 50% Pt/MWNTs and 50% Pt/C gives the best performance because of the better dispersion and good accessibility of MWNTs support and the Pt electrocatalysts in the mixture for the oxygen reduction reaction in PEMFC. The paper emphasizes that Pt/C and Pt/MWNTs composites have good potential as catalyst support material in PEMFC.
