Research on the new combustion chamber design to operate with low methane number fuels in an internal combustion engine with pre-chamber
(Elsevier, 2023-07)
Gas flaring is the burning process of unwanted raw natural gas (NG) that cannot be processed during the oil and gas extraction and process operations. This research work aims to continue with the experimental prototyping ...
Experiments on a lab scale TES unit using eutectic metal alloy as PCM
(Elsevier, 2015-05)
The behavior of a magnesium and zinc eutectic metal alloy used as thermal energy storage (TES) material is tested in a
laboratory scale TES unit. The TES unit consists of two concentric tubes with the central tube surrounded ...
Methodological Design Optimization of a Marine LNG Internal Combustion Gas Engine to Burn Alternative Fuels
(MDPI, 2023-06-08)
Marine emission policies are becoming more demanding; thus, ship propulsion and power generation technologies need to be adapted to current scenarios. LNG is already considered to be a transition fuel, and new alternative ...
Latitude error in compass deviation: mathematical method to determine the latitude error in magnetic compass deviation
(Gdansk University of Technology, 2014-10)
This article aims to provide the seafarer with a tool to calculate the deviation for a righted ship in any geographical
position using only the information available on board. In this way the accidental errors in the ...
