The development of surface based measurements for monitoring self heating of fuel stockfilesAnderson, Paul January 1991 (has links)
A thesis submitted to the faculty of engineering university of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy
Johannesburg
1991 / Analysis of temperatures measured in an experimental coal bed
(using the classical conductive-convective approach) confirm
previously published permeabilities of similar beds, and
furthermore validate the use of heat- transfer coefficients at
exposed surfaces of coal stockpiles, The range of the estimated
heat transfer coefficients is similar to natural convective
coefficients at flat horizontal surfaces, which is expected.

Microwave data reduction technique for calculation of solid propellant burning ratesBoley, Jeffery Bruce January 1984 (has links)
A microwave measurement system for obtaining continuous burning-rate information from a solid propellant slab-burning rocket motor is described. A previous derivative-based method for reducing the microwave data is reviewed and an improved data reduction technique is introduced. The improved microwave modeling technique is analyzed using simulated data to determine the accuracy of the burning-rate calculations and the sensitivity of the burning-rate calculations to errors in the model parameters. The microwave model is then used to calculate the burning rate of the propellant for a selected firing of the slab motor. / Master of Science

The use of chemiluminesence for light-off detection of flamesHamer, Andrew John January 1989 (has links)
A fast response method for detection of light-off in gaseous flames and liquid spray flames has been developed. The method used chemiluminescent signals from the 2Σ - ²π OH system centered at 309 nm and the ²Δ - ²π CH system centered at 430 nm to indicate the presence of a flame. Spectral scans (performed on gaseous methane, liquid hexane and liquid Jet-A aircraft fuel) from 280 nm to 610 nm indicated that these two species produced the strongest signals available for flame detection. As their light is emitted in the ultraviolet spectrum, using the OH and CH radicals will potentially provide a good signal-to-noise ratio since, in combustion chambers, most of the broadband background emissions are in the infrared and visible wavelengths. These scans also showed that the hexane and Jet-A gave OH and CH signals of approximately equal intensity. The transient histories of OH and CH were investigated by performing light-off ignition tests and intermittent light-off ignition tests. These various flame conditions showed that both signals were good indicators of flame presence, showing on average, a response time of better than 3 milliseconds. It was found that when the Hydrogen to Carbon ratio of the fuel was decreased, the CH signal strength increased as a percentage of OH signal intensity. Finally, the output signal intensity was found to be sensitive to both the flame image magnification and to the part of the flame observed. / Master of Science

A model based approach for determining data quality metrics in combustion pressure measurement. A study into a quantitative based improvement in data qualityRogers, David R. January 2014 (has links)
This thesis details a process for the development of reliable metrics that could be used to assess the quality of combustion pressure measurement data - important data used in the development of internal combustion engines.
The approach that was employed in this study was a model based technique, in conjunction with a simulation environment - producing data based models from a number of strategically defined measurement points. A simulation environment was used to generate error data sets, from which models of calculated result responses were built. This data was then analysed to determine the results with the best response to error stimulation. The methodology developed allows a rapid prototyping phase where newly developed result calculations may be simulated, tested and evaluated quickly and efficiently.
Adopting these newly developed processes and procedures, allowed an effective evaluation of several groups of result classifications, with respect to the major sources of error encountered in typical combustion measurement procedures. In summary, the output gained from this work was that certain result groups could be stated as having an unreliable response to error simulation and could therefore be discounted quickly. These results were clearly identifiable from the data and hence, for the given errors, alternative methods to identify the error sources are proposed within this thesis.
However, other results had a predictable response to certain error stimuli, hence; it was feasible to state the possibility of using these results in data quality assessment, or at least establishing any boundaries surrounding their application for this usage. Interactions in responses were also clearly visible using the model based sensitivity analysis as proposed. The output of this work provides a solid foundation of information from which further work and investigation would be feasible, in order to achieve an ultimate goal of a full set of metrics from which combustion data quality could be accurately and objectively assessed.
