“…The spark is triggered during the occurrence of the discharge between the central electrode, powered by high voltage and placed inside a ceramic insulator, and a side grounded electrode is inserted through the threaded plug body. The body is used to mount the spark plug in the socket of the engine head and to transfer heat from the electrode to it [18][19][20].…”

This paper analyses the influence of the type of electrode in a spark plug on exhaust gas emission. The objects of the research were the following vehicles of different years of production: the Volkswagen Beetle 1300, the Honda Nighthawk 650, the BMW e46 318i, the Hyundai i10, and the Audi A4 B6. The vehicles were powered by petrol and LPG. Spark plugs were selected for the vehicles, with different kinds of construction for the main electrodes and different numbers of poles but with similar heat values. A comparative analysis of the composition of the exhaust gas mixture was performed, depending on the set of spark plugs used. The amount of CO, HC, CO2, and O2 emissions was analysed. The results were compared with the applicable exhaust gas emission standards. Both in the case of E5 95 petrol and LPG gas, lower exhaust gas emissions were observed when iridium spark plugs were used.

“…As a result, the combustion process improves, the engine can be started quickly, and acceleration is increased [12]. Setting the spark plug gap also needs to properly control the fuel consumption, noise, hydrocarbon emissions, and vehicle-generated vibrations [13][14][15][16]. The wide gap between the spark plugs requires a greater electrical voltage to reduce the chance of misfire.…”

Motorcycle performance is influenced by many factors, including combustion chamber dimension, fuel characteristic, type of spark plug, spray flame, ignition timing, and the combustion chamber's cooling system to avoid incomplete combustion and knocking processes. The spark plug is an essential component of SIE. Several studies, such as spark plug gap, material type, multiple-ground Electrode, roughness, etc., have been conducted to examine the effect of spark plug modifications on the combustion process. Some previous research investigates the impact of a multiple-ground electrode spark plug in biofuel combustion. However, a study about the effect of multiple-ground electrode spark plugs on the gasoline combustion process has not been conducted. This research was conducted to determine the impact of multiple-ground electrode on Supra 125 cc performance. The data displayed in this study are power, torque, BHP, and BMEP in single, double, and triple ground electrode. The results showed that the double ground electrode spark plug produced better performance than other variations.

“…The increase in green gas emissions in the atmosphere is warning us to decrease carbon dioxide emissions through more environmentally friendly solutions. [1][2][3] One of the most likely solutions for solving this problem is the improvement of electric-based technologies. 4,5 Electrical vehicles, such as electric cars and smart portable devices, need an advanced energy storage system for high efficiency.…”

In this work, an insoluble three dimensional (3D) porous polymeric structure and their metal complexes were synthesised by the condensation reactions of meta(m)-phenylenediamine, para(p)-phenylenediamine and glutaraldehyde. The morphological and spectral features of the porous polymeric structures were determined using different analytical and spectroscopic methods, including field emission scanning electron microscopy, four-point probe electrical conductivity, photoluminescence spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, surface area Brunauer–Emmett–Teller and magnetic and thermal behaviours. According to the obtained data, the shape, size and photoluminescence properties of the compounds, especially the conductivity, were clearly changed after the metalation processes.
