Improving Internal Combustion Engine Performance by Using Reduced Power Air Conditioning System
Abstract: The paper studies and analyzes the effects of adsorption air conditioning system instead of the classical compression unit on the vehicle internal combustion engine (ICE) performance. The adsorption system uses the residual heat from the ICE cooling circuit to create the necessary thermodynamic conditions to reduce the temperature in the vehicle cockpit. The proposed system has the advantage of no mobile parts for operating since it works on pressure difference …

Numerical Study of Vibration Stress and Deformation of Rotating Fan Blade of a Gas Turbine
Abstract: The vibration stress caused by resonance is the main cause of failure in aircraft engine blades. The study is aimed at investigating the vibration stress of a single-stage fan blade influenced by the interaction of aerodynamic and structural behavior at multiple critical speeds. A three-dimensional finite element model of the blade was developed for the simulation of vibration stress and its subsequent effects. The blade was verified by modal test. …
