Metal fuels, as recyclable carriers of clean energy, are promising alternatives to fossil fuels
in a future low-carbon economy. Fossil fuels are a convenient and widely-available source …

This paper critically reviews the theoretical and experimental literature regarding the
fundamental aspects of flames in nonvolatile solid fuel suspensions. Unlike volatile fuels that …

The combustion of aluminum particle dust in a laminar air flow is theoretically studied under
fuel-lean conditions. A wide range of particle sizes at nano and micron scales is explored …

Metal powder combustion has traditionally been studied to mitigate the risk of industrial
accidents and to determine the contributions of metals as additives to the performance of …

In a context of growing concerns over climate change, aluminum has the potential to serve
as a dense energy carrier in order to replace fossil fuels and reduce greenhouse gases …

The burning velocity is a fundamental parameter in combustion that has been accurately
measured with different methods for a variety of gaseous and liquid hydrocarbon fuels …

Thermo photovoltaic (TPV) power generation systems have attracted a great deal of
attention in the field of portable electronic devices. The high and uniform temperature of TPV …

Metal fuel is one of the attractive alternative fuels for its high energy density and zero carbon
emission. In the past, they were often used as additives in fireworks and propellants. More …

This work presents an experimental study of the combustion characteristics of micron-sized
aluminum and magnesium powders under constant volume combustion experiments …

Aluminum particle burn rates are known to be a strong function of particle size as the mode
of burning transitions from diffusion to kinetically controlled. To better understand the rate …
