Models with different validation are available for the 0D simulation for the initial design of a counter-piston combustion up to the 3D CFD, e.g. of the charge change. By automating and interacting ...

Composite propellant combustion represents a critical area of research, combining the complexities of chemical kinetics, fluid dynamics, and material science to understand and predict the performance ...

In order to make the simulation on tens of thousands of processors possible, Stefan Kerkemeier, a doctoral student at LAV, and Paul Fischer from ANL optimized and further expanded the code over the ...

Imagine more efficient internal combustion engines with lower emissions, sparked by computer simulation. Scientists across the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have ...

In this video from the PASC15 conference in Switzerland, Jacqueline Chen from Sandia National Lab presents: Towards Exascale Simulation of Turbulent Combustion. Exascale computing will enable ...

Sandia National Laboratory led by Sandia researcher Peter Van Blarigan that has been testing physical components of free-piston engines which could be 50% efficient. This is about twice as good as ...

It's amazing that an object as simple as a piston can withstand the rigors of combustion for hundreds of thousands of miles without failing. There's a lot more to a piston than meets the eye, matey.

For hundreds of years of human history, the invention that has defined our ability to travel, explore, and expand our boundaries has been the combustion engine. This hallmark of mechanical development ...

In an effort to increase the basic understanding of automobile technology for those new to the hot rod world or those who have been involved for a while but don't have a good foundation of knowledge.
