Flameless combustion in combustion technology is an innovative method with low nox production that few years provided it passes. In this paper the effects of various parameters on flameless combustion chamber with separate fuel and air jets, has been modeled numerically with the help of Fluent 6.3 software. Differences between traditional combustion and flameless combustion were determined and the flame structure has been studied in different scenarios. In numerical modeling, approach were used to modeling turbulence and eddy dissipation concept (EDC) approach use to modeling combustion and turbulence interaction effects. A global Two-step reaction mechanism for propane and a global... 

Cyanide ion is one of the materials used in various industries related to metallurgy, the release of which in the environment causes water, air and soil pollution. Numerous researchers have used different methods to remove this pollutant from the environment. Comparing these methods with each other, photocatalytic processes have attracted a lot of attention due to the use of sunlight as a sustainable energy source, good efficiency, low cost, etc. Therefore, in the present study, first the heat-treated graphite carbon-nitride photocatalyst was synthesized and then characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) tests, infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scattered reflectance spectroscopy (DRS),... 

For policy and decision makers, controlling pollution emissions are a real challenge. The best way to collect fiscal resources, optimal distribution of them to developing businesses in optimal energy production and reducing emissions, are important issues to be decided. Finding a monetary value emissions imposing to community is a key point to find out how they are affecting the whole economy and this will help decision makers to conduct better road maps and policies. Many different approaches and methodologies are used in literature to find appropriate answers to above mentioned questions and phenomena, in this research, integrated assessment modeling methodology is used, an economical... 

Direct injection spark ignition lean burn engine with stratified mixture is concerned recently and research and development are in its initial stage. In this thesis, at first a thermodynamic simulation of these engines was done for investigating of stratified mixture effects on combustion characterization and compare it with homogeneous one. In this modeling we use from turbulent flame speed model for mass burning rate analysis, multizone model for exact measuring of temperature distribution, full chemical kinetic model for emission concentrations and some proposed mixture formation for predicting of stratified mixture. The results shown that stratification is caused to improve combustion... 

Many studies on hybrid vehicles have been done in the past few years. The Full hybrid vehicles need a large number of batteries creating up to 300V to meet the required voltage of electric motor. The size and weight of the batteries cause some problems. This research investigates the mild hybrid vehicle. This vehicle includes a small electric motor and a high power internal combustion engine. In most cases the car’s driving force is created by internal combustion part. A small electric motor, which can operate as engine starter, generator and traction motor, is located between the engine and automatically shifted multi-gear transmission (gearbox). The clutch is used to disconnect the gearbox... 

Considering the importance of environmental issues and the limitation of fuel supplies in the world, car issues have become one of the most important debates of the day. The methods used to reduce fuel consumption and emissions of greenhouse gases are primarily aimed at changing vehicle structure to reduce drag. An external body shape has been developed to reduce drag forces over the years. Due to the existence of limitations in the actual conditions of the theory, such as the beauty and convenience production, other methods should be examined. In this study, the structure of superhydrophobic properties materials with the emphasis on innovation has been considered. In order to investigate... 

This research deals with pricing private automobiles entering a congested area in urban CBD to reduce auto-related air pollution. There are two factors affecting the pollution level: car volumes, and the weather condition. A Markov decision process is employed to find the optimal tolls and determine the prices for different states of the system, under several weather conditions. The demand for travel is elastic. It is assumed that users change modes in the short run. In longer terms, the part of the demand with shopping, recreation, or similar flexible trip purposes change the respective demand levels according to the price level. The study attempts to estimate elastic demand functions for... 

Today, different cities in the world have hurried to consumers, natural resources, and producers of waste. Our cities are not excluded from this rule, especially metropolitan like Tehran, which accounted for only 12% of the country's land area, accounting for 15% of the volume of airborne contamination in the country. Considering the importance of the environmental pollution issue and the many researches done in this field, the present study attempts to investigate and analyze the application of renewable energy to reduce environmental pollution with an emphasis on the automotive industry. This is an applied research in terms of purpose. These types of researches are applicable because these... 

A new magnetic catalytic nanocomposite of Hal-MT-Cys-Ag/MNCD was fabricated and utilized for catalyzing reductive de-colorization of methyl orange and rhodamin B in aqueous media at room temperature. To prepare this material, Cl-functionalized halloysite nanoclay was successively reacted with melamine and 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine to furnish multi-nitrogen containing ligand on halloysite surface. Then, magnetic carbon dots were crafted through a facile method and decorated with Ag nanoparticles and cysteine to furnish Cys-Ag/MNCD species. The final nanocomposite was obtained via incorporation of this latter species onto functionalized halloysite. This was characterized through the XRD,...
