Combustion is a reactive oxidation process that releases energy bound in chemical
compounds used as fuels─ energy that is needed for power generation, transportation …

Chemical energy carriers are crucial for addressing challenges that arise from time lag,
large distances, and temporal fluctuations in renewable energy production, which lead to …

Micrometric spherical particles of iron in two narrow size ranges of (38–45) µm and (45–53)
µm were injected in a bench scale, transparent drop-tube furnace (DTF), electrically heated …

We present a numerical study of the combustion of single iron particles in an O 2–N 2
atmosphere. By resolving the full boundary layer, mass and heat transfer are accurately …

This paper presents the results of experimental measurements of the laminar burning
velocity of iron-air-flames in a model tube burner. Carbonyl iron powder with an average …

In the present study, a novel and initiative approach towards a self-sustainable metal
combustion burner called the “Metal Cyclonic Combustor (MC 2)” is introduced. The results …

In the present study, a novel in situ particle sizing approach is proposed and used to
measure the characteristic timescales of micron-sized iron particle combustion under low …

In this study, the metal cyclonic combustor (MC 2) was utilized to investigate the formation of
nanoparticles (nPMs) and NO x during the combustion of iron powder under varying input …

This manuscript reports on the combustion of powdered iron, for the purpose of utilizing it as
an environmentally friendly circular energy carrier. The conducted research investigated the …

Ignition temperatures of metal particles play an essential role in not only the fundamental
theories of non-volatile dust flames but also the robust operation of practical metal fuel …
