The article deals with method of purifying the exhaust gases in an automobile muffler or other transport equipment using electrical pulses. Electrical pulses are formed between the two ring electrodes (anode and cathode) installed in series along the gas flow. The physical picture of the process is described. A mathematical model has been developed and studied. A deterministic relationship has been established between the engine volume, the number of the crankshaft revolutions, the electric field strength and the charge strength and dynamic viscosity of the gas. Experimental studies have been carried out. The goal of the experiment was to confirm the hypothesis of impact ionization of exhaust gases. The effectiveness of electrical pulse purification has been proven.
The article deals with the existing methods of cleaning vehicle radiators from sedimentary scale. A method of cleaning radiator tubes by ultrasonic radiation is proposed. An experimental bench has been developed for studying ultrasonic cleaning processes. Based on the results of the experiment, dependences have been obtained that determine the efficiency of the process depending on the mass of scale removed and the liquid outflow rate from the tubes. There are proposed the purification degree coefficients. The hypothesis about the possibility of cleaning radiators with ultrasonic vibrations has been confirmed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
