International Journal of I.C. Engines and Gas Turbines

International Journal of I.C. Engines and Gas Turbines [2582-290X(e)] is a peer-reviewed hybrid open-access journal launched in 2015 that has a wide range of discipline under it and is designed to publish articles that cover current advances in the ever-growing field of combustion engines. The Journals always encourage authors to provide a summary of their recent work as well as reviews of the research that was and is of significant importance. Journal broadly covers Two stroke, four-stroke, and six-stroke engines, steam turbines, and turbine engine failure.

• • Two-Stroke, Four-Stroke, Five-Stroke, and Six-Stroke Engines: Six-stroke cycle with water injection and steam expansion, exhaust heat recovery, acetylene-fueled engines, engine efficiency and performance.
  • Ignition and Combustion: Spark-ignition and compression-ignition engines, dual-fuel and gaseous fuel operation, hydrogen and ammonia as fuels, diesel combustion, flame development, in-cylinder heat flux, transient heat transfer.
  • Engine Cycles and Thermodynamic Modeling: Finite-time thermodynamics, reciprocating heat-engine cycles, quasi-dimensional engine models, thermodynamic cycle models, turbulent flame propagation, performance optimization.
  • Wankel Rotary Engines and Alternative Configurations: Gasoline and hydrogen-fueled Wankel engines, hydrogen enrichment, lean operating limits, asynchronous ignition, emissions.
  • Lubrication: Boundary lubrication, tribochemistry, surface chemistry, lubricant additives, alkyl chain length effects, monomolecular film design, shear strength of surface films.
  • Fuels, Oxidizers, and Propellants: Energetic materials, nano-aluminum, thermites, burning rate, liquid propellants, chlorine oxide oxidizers, specific impulse, liquid rocket engines.
  • Industrial Gas Turbines for Power Generation and Mechanical Drive: Design-point and off-design performance, zero-dimensional models, compressors, turbochargers, combined heat and power, heat recovery, low-emission combustion technologies, exhaust systems, maintenance, downtime, service life.
  • Steam Turbines and Turbine Engine Failure: Steam turbine performance, failure analysis of turbine components, stress and service life assessment.
  • Jet Engines: Aerospace engine control and computer control systems, turboprop engines, gamma titanium aluminide alloys, room-temperature ductility, gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) of engine components.
