Comparing physical and chemical properties of soot from laboratory tests and heavy-duty engines used in field operations (2024)
Journal Article
Pacino, A., La Rocca, A., Smith, J., Berryman, J., Fowell, M., Cairns, A., & Fay, M. W. (2024). Comparing physical and chemical properties of soot from laboratory tests and heavy-duty engines used in field operations. SAE International Journal of Fuels and Lubricants, 18(1), Article 04-18-01-0002. https://doi.org/10.4271/04-18-01-0002

Morphology, nanostructure, and composition of soot extracted from the oil sump of different heavy-duty engines operated under dynamometer and field conditions were investigated. Soot characteristics were then compared to a carbon black sample. Soot w...

Experimental Comparison of Spark and Jet Ignition Engine Operation with Ammonia/Hydrogen Co-Fuelling (2024)
Journal Article
Ambalakatte, A., Cairns, A., Geng, S., Varaei, A., Hegab, A., Harrington, A., Hall, J., & Bassett, M. (2024). Experimental Comparison of Spark and Jet Ignition Engine Operation with Ammonia/Hydrogen Co-Fuelling. SAE Technical Papers, 2024, Article 01-2099. https://doi.org/10.4271/2024-01-2099

Ammonia (NH3) is emerging as a potential fuel for longer range decarbonised heavy transport, predominantly due to favourable characteristics as an effective hydrogen carrier. This is despite generally unfavourable combustion and toxicity attributes,... Read More about Experimental Comparison of Spark and Jet Ignition Engine Operation with Ammonia/Hydrogen Co-Fuelling.

Research and innovation identified to decarbonise the maritime sector (2024)
Journal Article
Ling-Chin, J., Simpson, R., Cairns, A., Wu, D., Xie, Y., Song, D., …Roskilly, A. P. (2024). Research and innovation identified to decarbonise the maritime sector. Green Energy and Sustainability, 4(1), Article 1. https://doi.org/10.47248/ges2404010001

The maritime sector requires technically, environmentally, socially, and economically informed pathways to decarbonise and eliminate all emissions harmful to the environment and health. This is extremely challenging and complex, and a wide range of t... Read More about Research and innovation identified to decarbonise the maritime sector.
