Experiments have been conducted in a laminar flow system and in a research engine to investigate the effect of additives on the combustion of gasoline-like fuels. The purpose of the laminar system is ...

A Laminar Flow system plays a crucial role in controlling particulate contamination. It refers to a steady, uniform flow of air. Inside the Laminar Flow Cabinet, the air initially passes through an ...

There are two main types of fluid flow - laminar flow, in which the fluid flows smoothly in layers, and turbulent flow, which is characterised by chaotic motion and large amounts of mixing. In this ...

ABSTRACT The effects of charge motion and laminar flame speeds on combustion and exhaust temperature have been studied by using an air jet in the intake flow to produce an adjustable swirl or tumble ...

That seems to be the reasoning behind Otto Aviation's Phantom 3500 jet aircraft that dumps the portholes in favor of super-laminar flow to lose weight and burn less fuel. Ask an aerospace engineer ...

Aerion's determination to be first to market with a supersonic business jet remains as dogged as ever as the US aerodynamics research company embarks on a another round of testing with NASA's Dryden ...

Ever seen a pitch that moves in a way no one can explain? That might be laminar flow—a rare aerodynamic phenomenon that can make a baseball defy expectations and completely fool hitters! Here’s what ...
