  • Due to the high temperatures at this mixture, the detonation of the fuel-air mix while approaching or shortly after maximum cylinder pressure is possible under high load (referred to as knocking or pinging), specifically a "pre-detonation" event in the context of a spark-ignition engine model. (wikipedia.org)
  • Such detonation can cause serious engine damage as the uncontrolled burning of the fuel-air mix can create very high pressures in the cylinder. (wikipedia.org)
  • For acceleration and high-load conditions, a richer mixture (lower air-fuel ratio) is used to produce cooler combustion products (thereby utilizing evaporative cooling ), and so avoid overheating of the cylinder head , and thus prevent detonation. (wikipedia.org)

  • Mark Campanale, founder and director of the Carbon Tracker Initiative , which has demonstrated that most fossil fuel reserves must be left in the ground if the planet is to escape dangerous overheating, said that most of the "assets" of fossil fuel companies could not be extracted at a profit unless the oil price rose above $50 to $60 dollars a barrel.

  • It will also point the way to reach the nearest gas station Ballenoil and the price is fuel, without having to go to the gas station. (google.com)
  • The fuel surcharge applicable to DHL Parcel services is based on the European gas price index. (dhl.com)
  • For example, the average monthly fuel price in March is used to determine the applicable surcharge for April. (dhl.com)
  • Does the ignition switch control the fuel pump? (doityourself.com)
  • The ignition switch provides the initial power to the fuel pump that allows the vehicle to start. (doityourself.com)
  • If the vehicle is not starting properly due to an ignition failure, the fuel pump will also fail and the engine will fail to "spark. (doityourself.com)
  • You will want to test the ignition switch, the fuel pump relay, or the fuse that powers the pump. (doityourself.com)

  • OXFORD - The head of a global philanthropic foundation says that the world turning away from fossil fuels is a critical moment in human history, akin to the abolition of slavery. (truthdig.com)
  • 21 January 2019, Gaza - The World Health Organization is concerned over the potential impact the evolving fuel crisis in Gaza might have on the lives and health of patients whose treatment requires uninterrupted power supply if no immediate solution to address the aggravating shortages is found.

  • Although there are some ways of harvesting hydrogen as a byproduct of other processes, it usually must be extracted from fossil fuels or electrolyzing water. (forbes.com)
  • The programme will explore all aspects of direct solar fuel production, combining biological, molecular and solid state approaches. (rsc.org)
  • However, producing solar fuel, for example in the form of hydrogen gas or methanol, requires entirely different technology. (lu.se)
  • A device that can do this - a solar fuel cell - is a complicated machine with light-collecting molecules and catalysts", said Villy Sundström. (lu.se)
  • In the present study, Professor Sundström and his colleagues have developed and studied a special molecule that can serve as a model for the type of chemical reactions that can be employed in a solar fuel cell. (lu.se)
  • The molecule comprises two metal centres, one that collects the light and another that imitates the catalyst where the solar fuel is produced. (lu.se)
  • Synthetic fuel is cleaner than natural oil, but its production process needs to be more efficient. (sciencedaily.com)
  • To date, natural oil still serves as our primary source of fuel, even though a much cleaner alternative exists in the form of synthetic fuel. (sciencedaily.com)
  • We're absolutely not there yet, but understanding the early stages of synthetic fuel production forms an essential component of unraveling the entire, complex reaction mechanism. (sciencedaily.com)
  • Even more enticingly, evangelists are being fed the story that they will soon be able to use a hydrogen-based synthetic fuel in the cars they are driving right now, with no change necessary. (forbes.com)
  • Water-fuelled cars have been the subject of numerous international patents, newspaper and popular science magazine articles, local television news coverage, and websites. (wikipedia.org)
  • It is hoped that the research will enable hydrogen cars to manufactured en mass. (inhabitat.com)
  • The sugar found in fruit such as apples and oranges can be converted into a new type of low-carbon fuel for cars, US scientists have said. (bbc.co.uk)
