    Assessment of the Ignition and Lift-off Characteristics of a Diesel Spray with a Transient Spreading Angle

    Multi-hole diesel fuel injectors have shown significant transients in spreading angle during injections, different than past fundamental research using single-hole injectors. We investigated the effect of a this transient spreading angle on combustion parameters such as ignition delay and lift-off length by comparing a three-hole nozzle (Spray B) and single-hole nozzle (Spray A) with holes of the same size and shape as targets for the Engine Combustion Network (ECN). With the temperature distribution for a target plume of Spray B characterized extensively in a constant-volume combustion chamber, the ignition delay and lift-off length were measured and compared. Results show that the lift-off length of Spray B increases and grows by approximately 1.5 mm after the initial stages of ignition, in an opposite trend compared to Spray A where the lift-off length decreases with time. The Spray B lift-off length increase is consistent with a transition to from wide to narrow spreading angle that would tend to increase lift-off length, but lift-off is stabilized for a substantial period of time by a wide annular region of combustion products formed when the plume was initially wide

    Natalie Vivian Scott: The Origins, People and Times of the French Quarter Renaissance (1920-1930).

    No full text
    This is the interwoven story of Natalie Vivian Scott, war hero, author, adventurer and humanitarian, and the French Quarter Renaissance during the 1920s, when Natalie Scott was a vital member of the talented coterie of writers and artists whose talents prospered there, including Sherwood Anderson, William Faulkner, William Spratling, Lyle Saxon, Roark Bradford, Oliver La Farge, John Dos Passos, Hamilton Basso, Meigs Frost, among others. This work\u27s premise is that the decayed, crumbling French Quarter, falling into irreversible decline, was saved during the early 1920s by an outburst of local creativity and organizational energy that inspired restoration and a unique, historically significant cultural revival. The participants included a remarkable array of artists, writers, stage performers, poets and journalists, the most famous being major products of this renaissance, but not its progenitors. This artistic and literary colony was the most significant in Southern U.S. history, and among the most important of the American twentieth century. Natalie Scott was instrumental in each of the key forces that created and shaped the French Quarter Renaissance. After being awarded France\u27s highest medal, the Croix de Guerre, for her heroism during World War I, this Southern bred and Newcomb educated war heroine returned to New Orleans and became a feature writer, social editor, and columnist for the New Orleans States. As a founder, playwright and performer with the Petit Theatre du Vieux Carre; a staff member of the Double Dealer literary magazine; close friend of Anderson, Spratling, Faulkner, La Farge, Saxon and other key figures; a pioneer in Vieux Carre; renewal investments and the leading social columnist in the city, Natalie Scott serves as an ideal vehicle to document the recovery of the French Quarter, and its service as the creative incubator for an astonishing array of important young talents

    Assessment of content knowledge in the industrial enterprise practicum course at UW-Stout

    No full text
    Plan BThe purpose of this descriptive study was to describe the level of content knowledge acquired (alpha change) as measured by the difference between a pre-test and post-test examination administered to students enrolled during the Spring 2000 semester in the Industrial Enterprise Practicum course (INMGT-314/514) at the University of Wisconsin-Stout. The pre/post-test instrument was identical and was composed of content that emphasized technology and business. The sample was 56 students consisting of technology education, industrial technology, business, and apparel design majors. The findings of the study revealed that there was change in the level of content knowledge acquired by the technology education, industrial technology, business, and apparel design majors

    Experimental Characterization of DI Gasoline Injection Processes

    This work investigates the injection processes of an eight-hole direct-injection gasoline injector from the Engine Combustion Network (ECN) effort on gasoline sprays (Spray G). Experiments are performed at identical operating conditions by multiple institutions using standardized procedures to provide high-quality target datasets for CFD spray modeling improvement. The initial conditions set by the ECN gasoline spray community (Spray G: Ambient temperature: 573 K, ambient density: 3.5 kg/m3 (∼6 bar), fuel: iso-octane, and injection pressure: 200 bar) are examined along with additional conditions to extend the dataset covering a broader operating range. Two institutes evaluated the liquid and vapor penetration characteristics of a particular 8-hole, 80°full-angle, Spray G injector (injector #28) using Mie scattering (liquid) and schlieren (vapor). Diffused back-illumination (DBI) imaging, which is the ECN standard liquid length diagnostic, was also used to provide a reference for the Mie scatter measurements. In addition to imaging the full liquid field, the DBI measurements included long-distance microscopy collection to permit characterization of near-nozzle, end-of-injection details. Interpretation of plume-to-plume variation was assisted by nozzle geometry measurements performed using optical microscopy and x-ray tomography. Results indicate that global spray parameters such as liquid and vapor penetration as well as spray angle are similar between the two facilities. The spray development and mixing is largely affected by charge gas conditions (mainly density). For instance, under the standard Spray G density, the individual plumes remained separated until the end of injection, while at higher ambient densities the plumes merged together. Spray development results, together with spray mechanical patternation supported the correlation with measured nozzle internal geometry. Long-distance microscopy measurements showed that the main flow was attracted toward the injector centerline after the end of injection, supporting the convergence of the plumes as observed in the spray angle measurements
