Abstract:
Measurements of indoor air pollution in Bhutanese households were conducted in winter with regards to the use of different fuels. These measurements were taken in Thimphu, Bhutan, for PM1, PM2.5, PM10, CO, temperature, air pressure and relative humidity in houses and offices with various fuels used for heaters and classified as the hospital, NEC, kerosene, LPG and firewood. The objective of this study was to measure the pollutant concentrations from different fuel uses and to understand their relationship to the different fuel uses and meteorological data using a time series and statistical analysis. The results revealed that the average values for each pollutant for the categories of the hospital, NEC, kerosene, LPG and firewood were as follows: CO (ppm) were 6.50 ± 5.16, 3.65 ± 1.42, 31.04 ± 18.17, 33.93 ± 26.41, 13.92 ± 17.58, respectively; PM2.5 (μg·m−3) were 7.24 ± 4.25, 4.72 ± 0.71, 6.01 ± 3.28, 5.39 ± 2.62, 18.31 ± 11.92, respectively; PM10 (μg·m−3) was 25.44 ± 16.06, 10.61 ± 4.39, 11.68 ± 6.36, 22.13 ± 9.95, 28.66 ± 16.35, respectively. Very coarse particles of PM10 were identified by outdoor infiltration for the hospital, NEC, kerosene and LPG that could be explained by the stable atmospheric conditions enhancing accumulation of ambient air pollutions during the measurements. In addition, high concentrations of CO from kerosene, LPG and firewood were found to be mainly from indoor fuel combustion. Firewood was found to the most polluting fuel for particulate matter concentrations. For the relationships of PM and meteorological data (Temp, RH and air pressure), they were well explained by linear regression while those for CO and the meteorological data, they were well explained by polynomial regression. Since around 40% of houses in Thimphu, Bhutan, use firewood for heating, it is recommended that ventilation should be improved by opening doors and windows in houses with firewood heaters to help prevent exposure to high concentrations of PM1, PM2.5, and PM10.

This research uses a modified common-rail diesel engine as the base. The intake air is heated up and the kerosene is blended into the diesel fuel. The air temperature is varied to study its effects on the engine combustion and cylinder pressure under pure diesel or kerosene blended diesel fuel. The engine performance is also recorded. A single cylinder CY190 1000C.C engine is operated under 600 bar fuel injection pressure with equivalence ratio (Φ=0.2、0.3、0.4、0.5), and engine speed (Rpm=1500、1800、2100、2400) varied. The first part of this research applies pure diesel with 19°CABTDC injection with varied engine speed , equivalence ratio, and air temperature. The 2nd part has 20% kerosene blended with diesel to study its effects. The third part compares the kerosene injected in the intake manifold or blending with diesel. These two series test results are compared to the baseline case. The engine performance variations are recorded. The results indicate when the intake air temperature increased under high engine speed, the engine torque is slightly increased. This is because the raised air temperature will shrink the ignition delay and owns better homogeneous charge so that the combustion in enhanced. The blended kerosene/diesel has also the same effect since the kerosene flash point is lower than the diesel fuel, while higher ignition temperature,. When the intake air is raised up its temperature, te engine combustion in enhanced. Results show the increased air temperature will increase the engine torque and reduce the Co and HC emissions. The NOx is increased while te smoke is reduced under low rpm and load situation. The increased air temperature will reduce the engine ignition delay and thus increase the engine output. The Emissions HC and CO is suppressed. The kerosene can also improve the combustion.

Abstract:
Carbon monoxide (CO) exposure has been described ever since humans developed products of combustion (e.g. fire, burning charcoal). The Romans realized that CO poisoning leads to death (Penney 2000). Coal fumes were used in ancient times for execution, and the deaths of two Byzantine emperors are attributed to CO poisoning (Lascaratos and Marketos 1998). Admiral Richard E. Byrd developed CO poisoning during the winter he spent alone in a weather station deep in the Antarctic interior (Byrd 1938). Further, CO poisoning took the life of tennis player Vitas Gerulaitis (“Died, Vitas Gerulaitis,” 1994; Lascaratos and Marketos 1998) and may have contributed to Princess Diana’s accidental death in 1997 (Sancton and Macleod 1998). Carbon monoxide is a colorless, tasteless, odorless gas by-product of the combustion of carbon-containing compounds such as natural gas, gasoline, kerosene, propane, and charcoal. The most common sources of CO poisoning are internal combustion engines and faulty gas appliances (Weaver 1999). Carbon monoxide poisoning can also occur from space heaters, methylene chloride in paint removers, and fire (Weaver 1999). The most frequent causes of pediatric CO poisoning are vehicle exhaust, dysfunctional gas appliances and heaters, and charcoal briquettes (Kind 2005; Mendoza and Hampson 2006). Less common sources of CO poisoning include riding in the back of pickup trucks, and while swimming and recreational boating (Hampson and Norkool 1992; Silvers and Hampson 1995). Among pediatric populations, minorities are disproportionately affected by CO poisoning compared to Caucasians, and Latinos and non-Latino blacks were more commonly poisoned by charcoal briquettes used for cooking or heating (Mendoza and Hampson 2006). Carbon monoxide is the leading cause of poisoning injury and death worldwide (Raub et al. 2000) and accidental and intentional poisoning in the United States. In the United States carbon monoxide poisoning results in approximately 40,000 emergency department visits (Hampson 1999) and 800 deaths per year (Piantadosi 2002). Children are particularly venerable to CO poisoning. The Center for Disease Control reports children younger than 4 years have the highest incidence of unintentional CO poisoning but the lowest death rates (2005).

Abstract:
An important question for future aero-engine combustors is how partial vaporization influences the NOx emissions of spray flames. In order to address this question an experimental study of the combustion of partially vaporized kerosene/air mixtures was conducted, which assesses the influence of the degree of fuel vaporization on the NOx emissions in a wide range of equivalence ratios covering the entire lean burning regime. The tests were performed at atmospheric pressure, inlet air temperatures of 313 to 376K, a reference mean air velocity of 1.35m/s, and equivalence ratios of 0.6, 0.7 and 0.9 using Jet A1 fuel. An ultrasonic atomizer was used to generate a fuel spray with a Sauter Mean Diameter of approximately 50μm. The spray and the heated air were mixed in a glass tube of 71mm diameter and a variable length of 0.5 to 1m. The temperature of the mixing air and the length of the preheater tube were used for the control of the degree of vaporization. Downstream of the vaporizing section, the mixture was ignited and the flame was stabilized with a hot wire ring that is electrically heated. For local exhaust measurements a temperature controlled suction probe in combination with a conventional gas analysis system were used. The vaporized ratio of the injected fuel was determined by a Phase Doppler Anemometer (PDA). In order to optimize the accuracy of these measurements, extensive validation tests with a patternator method were performed and a calibration curve was derived. The data collected in this study illustrates the effect of the vaporization rate Ψ upstream of the flame front on the NOx emissions, which changes with varying equivalence ratio and degree of vaporization. In the test case with low pre-vaporization, the equivalence ratio only has a minor influence on the NOx emissions. Experiments made with air preheat and higher degrees of vaporization show two effects: With increasing preheat air temperature, NOx emissions increase due to higher effective flame temperatures. However, with an increasing degree of vaporization, emissions become lower due to the dropping number and size of burning droplets, which act as hot spots. A correction for the effect of the preheat temperature was developed. It reveals the effect of the degree of pre-vaporization and shows that the NOx emissions are almost independent of Ψ for near-stoichiometric operation. At overall lean conditions the NOx emissions drop nonlinearly with Ψ. This leads to the conclusion that a high degree of vaporization is required in order to achieve substantial NOx abatement.

Abstract:
Biofuels offer reduced CO2 emissions for both industrial and aero gas turbines. Industrial applications are more practical due to low temperature waxing problems at altitude. Any use of biofuels in industrial gas turbines must also achieve low NOx and this paper investigates the use of biofuels in a low NOx radial swirler, as used in some industrial low NOx gas turbines. A waste cooking oil derived methyl ester biodiesel (WME) has been tested on a radial swirler industrial low NOx gas turbine combustor under atmospheric pressure and 600K. The pure WME and its blends with kerosene, B20 and B50 (WME:kerosene = 20:80 and 50:50 respectively), and pure kerosene were tested for gaseous emissions and lean extinction as a function of equivalence ratio. The co-firing with natural gas (NG) was tested for kerosene/biofuel blends B20 and B50. The central fuel injection was used for liquid fuels and wall injection was used for NG. The experiments were carried out at a reference Mach number of 0.017. The inlet air to the combustor was heated to 600K. The results show that B20 produced similar NOx at an equivalence ratio of ∼0.5 and a significant low NOx when the equivalence ratio was increased comparing with kerosene. B50 and B100 produced higher NOx compared to kerosene, which indicates deteriorated mixing due to the poor volatility of the biofuel component. The biodiesel lower hydrocarbon and CO emissions than kerosene in the lean combustion range. The lean extinction limit was lower for B50 and B100 than kerosene. It is demonstrated that B20 has the lowest overall emissions. The co-firing with NG using B20 and B50 significantly reduced NOx and CO emissions.

Abstract:
The situations such as rapid evaporation, and significant heat generation/convective heat transfer, typically encountered in liquid-fueled porous media combustors, warrant the use of local thermal non-equilibrium models. Knowledge of fuel vaporization and mixing is important to understand the combustion characteristics. In this paper, a two-energy equation model is presented to account for the non-equilibrium between the solid and liquid phases. In this approach, two energy equations for solid and gas phases were solved. Kerosene fuel, issued from an air-blast atomizer, was injected on to a heated porous medium. Governing equations were applied on a 2-D axisymmetric, computational domain of 20.3 cm × 2.5 cm. Computer simulations were conducted using a commercial code Fluent 6.0. Heat transfer from combustion porous medium was simulated by setting a volumetric heat source in the porous region. Accordingly, the peak temperatures in porous media varied from 473 K to 590 K. Axial temperature profiles within the porous media were obtained with equilibrium and non-equilibrium models. Results indicated that the equilibrium models slightly underpredicted the peak temperature. Using non-equilibrium models, radial profiles of kerosene vapor concentration were obtained at different axial locations and the results showed that the thermal effects of the porous medium dominated in the evaporation process. Numerical results were also compared with available data and the agreement was found to be good.

Abstract:
The development of higher thermal stability fuels and the development of onboard fuel deoxygenation systems may permit the preheating of fuel up to about 755 K before the onset of pyrolysis. At a sufficiently high fuel temperature for a given combustion chamber pressure, the flash vaporization of liquid or supercritical state fuel can ensue upon injection into the chamber. The performance of standard aviation turbine engine fuel nozzles, designed for mechanically breaking up liquid sprays, may thus be significantly altered by the employment of severely preheated fuel. An evaluation of heated and superheated Jet A-1 sprays from a pressure-swirl atomizer was implemented in a purpose-built test facility. Laser sheet imaging of the spray yielded simultaneous axial cross-sectional maps of Mie-scatter and fluorescence signals. In addition, particle image velocimetry was also used to measure the spray droplet velocity-field. The results indicated that increasing the fuel’s dimensionless level of superheat ΔT* from −1.8 to 0.6 yielded significant changes in the spray structure; specifically, finer droplet sizes, a more uniform dropsize distribution across the spray, increased spray cone angle till about ΔT* = −0.8 followed by a contraction thereafter, marginally increased spray penetration, and significantly higher localised near nozzle tip droplet velocities. The measurements supported the hypothesis that the initial hollow-cone spray structure evolves to a near solid-cone structure with a central vapour core as the fuel is superheated.

Abstract:
The concept of endothermic fuels is not a strange thing to the aeronautical community. Research is going on, globally, to achieve these kinds of fuels experimentally; but restricted to laboratory scale test setup. This is because of the stringent and controlled method of cracking the fuel thermally as well as catalytically. In this research work we have followed a systematic approach, i.e, developed a laboratory scale reactor for the preliminary feasibility studies and a realistic experimental set up, for the development and analysis of the cracked fuel by simulating the conditions of combustor walls. Developing this technology indigenously involves many steps, namely identification of the suitable catalysts, developing the technology of preparation of catalytically active coatings and then the design and fabrication of the catalytic cracking core. Finally the catalytic cracking core has to be integrated to the test combustor with the experimental setup. To carry out the catalytic cracking reaction, a high pressure and high temperature catalytic reactor was designed and developed. The reactor can heat kerosene up to 725 K and maintain pressures up to 10 bar. The catalytic coatings were prepared with ZSM-5 and molecular sieves (20:80); coated on aluminum cylinders. A temperature drop of 114 K was obtained when kerosene fuel was passed through the catalytic system. This clearly shows the cooling effect by the endothermic fuel. A mixed bed catalytic system (Molecular sieves, Reformax-100 and ZSM-5) was also developed for the in-situ generation of Hydrogen gas along with the catalytic cracking process. The presence of Hydrogen gas in the cracked fuel is confirmed by gas chromatographic (GC) Retention time Vs Voltage investigation. The experimentation in test rig was carried out in two modes, one is for thermal cracking (absence of catalyst) of kerosene fuel and the other one is catalytic cracking. In both the cases, the combustor duct is heated by hot air to 1200 K. Skin temperatures were measured to study the cooling effect of the endothermic fuel and the results are reported in this paper. It is noticed that the chemical composition of the kerosene fuel has been changed and fragmented into lighter chains. It is evident in the Gas Chromatography results that the catalytically cracked kerosene samples (gaseous and liquid samples) are having 30% higher of lighter chains (Ethane, Propane and Butane) of chemical compounds than thermally cracked kerosene samples. As expected, the fuel has got cracked thermally and catalytically while cooling the wall of the duct (simulating the actual flight conditions to realize the practical feasibility of generating endothermic fuels rather than restricting it to laboratory scale experiments).

Abstract:
This paper presents an experimental study on spray impingement and fuel evaporation processes in porous media. Aviation-type kerosene (Jet-A) was used as the fuel and an open-cell, silicon carbide coated, carbon-carbon ceramic foam was used as the porous medium. The fuel was sprayed into a coflowing, preheated air environment using an air-blast atomizer. A Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer (PDPA) was used to measure Sauter mean diameter (SMD), liquid mass flux, and axial velocity of the droplets. The porous medium was resistively heated to simulate heat feedback from the combustion zone. An organic vapor analyzer, based on catalytic oxidation, was used to measure the concentration of kerosene vapor downstream of the porous medium. The temperature and flow rate of coflow air were held constant, while the fuel flow rate, and hence, the overall equivalence ratio, was varied from 0.3 to 0.6. Higher liquid mass flux was recorded away from the spray core region, due to the swirling action of atomizing air. Surface temperature measurements of porous media revealed the uniformity of thermo-electrical properties of the medium. Vapor concentration measurements with combustion heat feedback (a heat input of 33 kW/m2) increased the average vapor concentration by 63% and 43% than that of no heat feedback case for 0.3 and 0.6 equivalence ratios respectively.

Abstract:
Abstract In recent years, there has been an interest in finding a jet fuel alternative to the crude oil-based kerosene. Gas-to-liquid (GtL) fuel is being derived via Fischer-Tropsch synthesis processes by converting natural gas to longer-chain hydrocarbons which form the basis for jet fuel. In this study, new experimental ignition delay time measurements of GtL jet fuels have been determined at elevated pressures and temperatures. The measurements were conducted in a heated, high-pressure shock-tube facility capable of initial temperatures up to 200°C. Two GtL jet fuels were investigated, Shell GTL and Syntroleum S-8, which can be used in aviation applications at concentrations up to 50% blended with conventional oil-based kerosene. The ignition delay time measurements were conducted behind reflected shock waves for gaseous-phase fuel in air at a pressure around 10 atm and over a temperature range of 966 to 1266 K for two equivalence ratios, fuel lean (ϕ = 0.5) and stoichiometric (ϕ = 1.0). Ignition delay time was determined by observing the pressure and electronically excited OH chemiluminescence around 307 nm at the endwall location. Similar ignition delay times were observed for the two fuels at the fuel lean condition, while Syntroleum S-8 showed shorter ignition delay times at the stoichiometric condition.
