In the face of ever-tightening emissions regulations, the world's car manufacturers are finding innovative ways to cut fuel consumption. In its quest for greater fuel efficiency, Audi has developed a ...

Researchers have developed a new method for capturing the complex behavior of turbulent flames produced during combustion. Insights provided by this high-speed 3D imaging approach could be used to ...

A new X-ray technique to measure temperatures in combustion flames could lead to cleaner biofuels. Understanding the dynamics of combustion of biofuels—fuels made from plants, algae or animal waste—is ...

This figure illustrates the "scale-free" nature of the turbulence network during spray combustion instability. (A) The spatial distribution of node strength reveals highly connected hubs (red regions) ...

Although car manufacturers are embracing alternative power sources, they haven't given up on internal combustion just yet. Along with a push towards downsized turbo power, some of the smartest ...

As countries search for alternatives to fossil fuels, biomass has gained attention as a renewable energy source capable of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However, not all methods of burning ...
