Eksempler på brug af COMBUSTION i en sætning

• Ashes as the end product of incomplete combustion are mostly mineral, but usually still contain an amount of combustible organic or other oxidizable residues.
• They were used in 18th-century chemical studies for burning materials in closed glass vessels where the products of combustion could be trapped for analysis.
• A Bunsen burner, named after Robert Bunsen, is a kind of ambient air gas burner used as laboratory equipment; it produces a single open gas flame, and is used for heating, sterilization, and combustion.
• Combustion, or burning, is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.
• The compression ratio is the ratio between the volume of the cylinder and combustion chamber in an internal combustion engine at their maximum and minimum values.
• In it, fuel is ignited by heat generated during the compression of air in the combustion chamber, into which fuel is then injected.
• The diesel engine, named after the German engineer Rudolf Diesel, is an internal combustion engine in which ignition of the fuel is caused by the elevated temperature of the air in the cylinder due to mechanical compression; thus, the diesel engine is called a compression-ignition engine (CI engine).
• Electricity is most often generated at a power plant by electromechanical generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by combustion or nuclear fission, but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind.
• Fire is the rapid oxidation of a material (the fuel) in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products.
• It is also the world's largest manufacturer of internal combustion engines measured by volume, producing more than 14 million internal combustion engines each year.
• Gasoline (North American English) or petrol (Commonwealth English) is a petrochemical product characterized as a transparent, yellowish, and flammable liquid normally used as a fuel for spark-ignited internal combustion engines.
• The main types are: the internal combustion engine, used extensively in motor vehicles; the steam engine, the mainstay of the Industrial Revolution; and the Stirling engine for niche applications.
• The rotary engine is an early type of internal combustion engine, usually designed with an odd number of cylinders per row in a radial configuration.
• A ramjet is a form of airbreathing jet engine that requires forward motion of the engine to provide air for combustion.
• Smoke is a suspension of airborne particulates and gases emitted when a material undergoes combustion or pyrolysis, together with the quantity of air that is entrained or otherwise mixed into the mass.
• Allegedly, humans can also ignite and burn without an obvious cause; this phenomenon is known as spontaneous human combustion.
• Cordless irons can be heated by combustion of gas stored in a small tank, often using a catalytic heater rather than a flame.
• In an internal combustion engine, a turbocharger (also known as a turbo or a turbosupercharger) is a forced induction device that is powered by the flow of exhaust gases.
• The purpose of a turbopump is to produce a high-pressure fluid for feeding a combustion chamber or other use.
• Fuel injection is the introduction of fuel in an internal combustion engine, most commonly automotive engines, by the means of a fuel injector.
• In an atmospheric context, specific impulse can include the contribution to impulse provided by the mass of external air that is accelerated by the engine, such as by fuel combustion or by external propeller.
• Lignite combustion produces less heat for the amount of carbon dioxide and sulfur released than other ranks of coal.
• A simple calorimeter just consists of a thermometer attached to a metal container full of water suspended above a combustion chamber.
• Reservoirs of such compound mixtures, such as coal, petroleum and natural gas, can be extracted and burnt as a fuel for human consumption to provide energy for direct use (such as for cooking, heating or lighting), to power heat engines (such as steam or internal combustion engines) that can propel vehicles, or to generate electricity via steam turbine generators.
• Some legends say it dies in a show of flames and combustion, while others that it simply dies and decomposes before being born again.
