Unscavanged prechamber ignition has been developed at the Laboratory of Industrial Energy Systems to reduce the emissions from cogeneration spark ignition gas engines, operating with both natural gas and biogas. Demonstration has been made that a lean burn ...
The increasing interest in new software engineering technologies for application integration such as Service Oriented Computing and Service Orchestration has resulted in a proliferation of workflow management systems as the underlying representation and ex ...
Unscavenged prechamber ignition has recently been developed at LENI-EPFL to reduce the emissions from cogeneration spark ignition gas engines (natural gas and biogas) within the Swiss Motor project supported by the Federal Office of Energy. Prechambers fit ...
The object of this work is to test the unscavenged prechamber ignition system on a 150 kW cogeneration engine feed with biogas. The engine performances in term of fuel conversion efficiency are observed and the reduction potential f the exhaust emissions b ...
The effects and the consequences of transferring the ignition point of the conventional combustion chamber into a small unscavenged prechamber were evaluted through a numerical simulation based on the CFD-code KIVA- 3V. The prechamber flow characteristics ...
Test of the unscavenged prechamber ignition system on a 150kW cogeneration engine fed with biogas are presented. The objective was to reach at least 36% in fuel conversion efficiency with exhaust gas emissions lower than the Swiss regulations limits (NOx, ...
Gaseous fuels produced, for example, by waste or agricultural by-products fermentation (biogas) can be burned in-situ by cogeneration systems like spark- ignition internal combustion engines. However, the more and more stringent legislation for exhaust gas ...
Investigation of the rotor-stator interactions of a reduced-scale model 0.19 ν= pump-turbine in generating mode is presented for the maximum discharge operating condition. This operating point is chosen in order to have the most important rotor-stator inte ...
