ignition method
1Ignition timing — in an internal combustion engine is the process of setting the time that a spark will occur in the combustion chamber (during the power stroke) relative to piston position and crankshaft angular velocity. Setting the correct ignition timing is… …
2Ignition — occurs when the heat produced by a reaction becomes sufficient to sustain a chemical reaction. The sudden change from a cold gas to a hot plasma in a plasma source is also called ignition.: See also: Making fire or Ignite (disambiguation)Other… …
3National Ignition Facility — NIF s basic layout. The laser pulse is generated in the room just right of center, and is sent into the beamlines (blue) on either side. After several passes through the beamlines the light is sent into the switchyard (red) where it is aimed into …
4Homogeneous charge compression ignition — Thermodynamics …
5Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition — Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition, or HCCI, is a form of internal combustion in which well mixed fuel and oxidizer (typically air) are compressed to the point of auto ignition. As in other forms of combustion, this exothermic reaction… …
6Dual ignition — A Hirth 2702 twin cylinder, two stroke aircraft engine. Equipped with dual ignition, the photo shows the two spark plugs per cylinder. Dual Ignition is a system for spark ignition engines, whereby each cylinder has every critical ignition… …
7Cleveland open-cup method — The Cleveland open cup method is one of three main methods in chemistry for determining the flash point of a petroleum product using a Cleveland open cup apparatus, also know as a Cleveland open cup tester. First, the test cup of the apparatus… …
8waste spark method — In distributorless ignition systems, dual spark coils fire two spark plugs at the same time; one of these sparks is in a cylinder during its exhaust stroke, where the spark has no effect (waste spark); the other spark occurs in the cylinder near… …
9Furnace — For other uses, see Furnace (disambiguation). Industrial Furnace from 1907 A furnace is a device used for heating. The name derives from Latin fornax, oven. In American English and Canadian English, the term furnace on its own is generally used… …
10Flare (countermeasure) — A Lockheed AC 130U Spooky releasing decoy flares. An IAF AH 64 Apache releasing decoy flares. A (decoy) flare is an aerial infrared countermeasure …
