Researchers studying a hydrogen combustion concept built around argon gas say the technology could reach 60% thermal ...

Scientists at Johns Hopkins APL successfully tested an innovative chemical destruction system known as the Pulse Combustion ...

Direct-injection spark-ignition (DISI) engines have been investigated for many years but only recently have shown promise as a next generation gasoline engine technology. Much of this new enthusiasm ...

If the reaction takes place at constant volume, no work is done and application of the first law indicates that the energy release, Q v, is the change in the internal energy of the system: Q v = (DU) ...

The existing methods of synthesis of thermoelectric (TE) materials remain constrained to multi-step processes that are time and energy intensive. Here we demonstrate that essentially all compound ...

Chinese automaker GAC Motor claims to have successfully tested a hydrogen combustion engine, although it's unclear if the engine will ever reach production. Instead of using fuel cells to generate ...

The X-Engine technology used in the XTS-210 is a direct drive rotary approach that can be viewed as an "inverted" Wankel engine. It has a trochoidal rotor with a three-lobed housing, but it utilizes a ...

THIS book opens with a general discussion on the thermodynamic principles involved in the properties of gases and mixtures of gases, followed by a chapter descriptive of experiments on rates of ...

A modern Formula 1 power unit squeezes more useful work from a liter of fuel than any production car on the planet. Mercedes-AMG High Performance Powertrains publicly stated that its hybrid V6 ...
