EFFECTS OF PRESSURE VARIATIONS AND COMBUSTION DURATION ON THE EMISSION OF HYDROCARBONS AND NITRIC OXIDE

Changes in combustion duration interval alters pressure history in the chamber by changing maximum pressure, rate of pressure rise and the time required for the maximum pressure to occur. This study looks at the relative effects of this on the nitric oxide formation and investigates the hydrocarbon emission when the flame initiation point is changed. /GMRL/
