  3. Lean-burn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lean-burn

    Lean-burn gas engines are almost always turbocharged, resulting in high power and torque figures not achievable with stoichiometric engines due to high combustion temperatures. Heavy duty gas engines may employ precombustion chambers in the cylinder head. A lean gas and air mixture is first highly compressed in the main chamber by the piston.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air–fuel_ratio

    Mixture is the predominant word that appears in training texts, operation manuals, and maintenance manuals in the aviation world. Air-fuel ratio is the ratio between the mass of air and the mass of fuel in the air-fuel mix at any given moment. The mass is the mass of all constituents that compose the air or fuel, whether they take part in the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixture_fraction

    Mixture fraction is a quantity used in combustion studies that measures the mass fraction of one stream of a mixture formed by two feed streams, one the fuel stream and the other the oxidizer stream. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Both the feed streams are allowed to have inert gases. [ 3 ]

  9. Gas blending - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_blending

    A breathing gas is a mixture of gaseous chemical elements and compounds used for respiration. The essential component for any breathing gas is a partial pressure of oxygen of between roughly 0.16 and 1.60 bar at the ambient pressure. The oxygen is usually the only metabolically active component unless the gas is an anaesthetic mixture.
