The performance and the gaseous emissions of two small marine craft diesel engines fuelled with biodiesel (2007)
Journal Article
Roskilly, A., Nanda, S., Wang, Y., & Chirkowski, J. (2008). The performance and the gaseous emissions of two small marine craft diesel engines fuelled with biodiesel. Applied Thermal Engineering, 28(8-9), 872-880. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.applthermaleng.2007.07.007

An experimental investigation of the application of biodiesel (recycled cooking fat and vegetable oil) on small marine craft diesel engines was completed. The tests were performed on Perkins 404C-22 (Marinised) in Boat No. 1 (Fair Countess) and on Na...

A technical and environmental analysis of co-combustion of coal and biomass in fluidised bed technologies (2007)
Journal Article
McIlveen-Wright, D., Huang, Y., Rezvani, S., & Wang, Y. (2007). A technical and environmental analysis of co-combustion of coal and biomass in fluidised bed technologies. Fuel, 86(14), 2032-2042. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2007.02.011

The use of biomass, which is considered to produce no net CO2 emissions in its life cycle, can reduce the effective CO2 emissions of a coal-fired power generation system, when co-fired with the coal, but may also reduce system efficiency.

The tech... Read More about A technical and environmental analysis of co-combustion of coal and biomass in fluidised bed technologies.

Comparative assessment of sub-critical versus advanced super-critical oxyfuel fired PF boilers with CO2 sequestration facilities (2007)
Journal Article
Rezvani, S., Huang, Y., McIlveen-Wright, D., Hewitt, N., & Wang, Y. (2007). Comparative assessment of sub-critical versus advanced super-critical oxyfuel fired PF boilers with CO2 sequestration facilities. Fuel, 86(14), 2134-2143. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2007.01.027

This work focuses on the techno-economic assessment of bituminous coal fired sub- and super-critical pulverised fuel boilers from an oxyfuel based CO2 capture point of view. At the initial stage, two conventional power plants with a nominal power out...

The application of FLOX/COSTAIR technologies to reduce NOx emissions from coal/biomass fired power plant: A technical assessment based on computational simulation (2007)
Journal Article
Wang, Y., McIlveen-Wright, D., Huang, Y., Hewitt, N., Eames, P., Rezvani, S., …Roskilly, A. (2007). The application of FLOX/COSTAIR technologies to reduce NOx emissions from coal/biomass fired power plant: A technical assessment based on computational simulation. Fuel, 86(14), 2101-2108. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2007.01.013

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) is one of the harmful emissions from power plants. Efforts are made to reduce NOx emissions by researchers and engineers all the times. NOx emissions are from three resources during the combustion: prompt NO, fuel NO and thermal...

An analytic study of applying Miller cycle to reduce NOx emission from petrol engine (2007)
Journal Article
Wang, Y., Lin, L., Roskilly, A. P., Zeng, S., Huang, J., He, Y., …Yang, J. (2007). An analytic study of applying Miller cycle to reduce NOx emission from petrol engine. Applied Thermal Engineering, 27(11-12), 1779-1789. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.applthermaleng.2007.01.013

An analytic investigation of applying Miller cycle to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions from a petrol engine is carried out. The Miller cycle used in the investigation is a late intake valve closing version. A detailed thermodynamic analysis of...
