Availability of clean and sustainable energy is of greater importance now than ever before in all sectors of energy, power, mobility and propulsion. Written by internationally renowned experts, the latest fundamental and applied research innovations on cleaner energy production as well as utilization for a wide range of devices extending from micro scale energy conversion to hypersonic propulsion using hydrocarbon fuels are provided. The tailored technical tracks and contributions from the world renowned technical experts are portrayed in the respective field to highlight different but complementary views on fuels, combustion, power and propulsion and air toxins with special focus on current and future R&D needs and activities. The energy and environment sustainability require a multi-pronged approach involving development and utilization of new and renewable fuels, design of fuel-flexible combustion systems that can be easily operated with the new fuels, and develop novel and environmentally friendly technologies for improved utilization of all kinds of gas, liquid and solid fuels. This volume is a useful book for practicing engineers, research engineers and managers in industry and research labs, academic institutions, graduate students, and final year undergraduate students in Mechanical, Chemical, Aerospace, Energy and Environmental Engineering.Green Energy and Technology,1865-3537EnginesFire preventionBuildingsProtectionThermodynamicsHeat engineeringHeat transferMass transferEnergy harvestingEngine TechnologyFire Science, Hazard Control, Building SafetyEngineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass TransferEnergy HarvestingEngines.Fire prevention.BuildingsProtection.Thermodynamics.Heat engineering.Heat transfer.Mass transfer.Energy harvesting.Engine Technology.Fire Science, Hazard Control, Building Safety.Engineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transfer.Energy Harvesting.629.134353Gupta A.
