In this paper, the statues and development trends of combustion research in internal combustion engines are discussed from several aspects. Some key issues in combustion of internal combustion engines are raised. The combustion in internal combustion engines is a complex process with chemical reaction and energy conversion and there are still many aspects needed to be clarified, especially the chemical reaction mechanism and soot formation. Meanwhile, combustion diagnostic is playing an increasing role in the understanding of combustion. The motivation to deepen the research is the continuous requirement of high-efficiency and low-emission engines. Remarkable progress has been achieved in developing low-emission combustion concept like HCCI and low-temperature combustion. Alternative fuel engines become an important aspect in engine research and development. Advanced combustion technology combined with fuel control technology and after-treatment can realize the high-efficient and low-emission target.

Orthogonal array tests were carried out to investigate the optimal temperature(T), hydraulic retention time (HRT), pH and C/N ratio of anaerobic fermentative hydrogen production using a 20 L continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR). The results showed that hydrogen production rate, hydrogen content, glucose utilization ratio and hydrogen yield reached the maximum of 6.00 L/h, 55.0%, 99.0%, 157.86 mL/g in appropriate conditions, respectively. The optimal pH, T, HRT and C/N ratio were 5.0, 33.5-36.5 °C, 8.34 h, 112/1.55, respectively. A confirmation experiment was carried out to verify the optimal parameters obtained by orthogonal array tests. Hydrogen production rate, hydrogen content, glucose utilization ratio and potential hydrogen yield reached the maximum of 5.66 L/h, 54.0%, 0.97, 191.18 mL/g, respectively. The results of the confirmation experiment showed that hydrogen production with the optimal parameters was more efficient than that in the orthogonal array tests, and that suggested the orthogonal array tests were successful.

The structural properties of CdS thin films obtained by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis at different substrate temperature were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scan electron microscope (SEM), Raman spectrum and Uv-vis absorption spectrum. The experimental results show that the crystallinity level gets higher with increasing substrate temperature while the bandgap remains constant. This deposition method should be an effective method as the deposited film looks uniform and smooth in the SEM image. Furthermore, the photoelectrochemical activities of CdS thin films used as electrode to split water to hydrogen and oxygen were investigated. The photoelectrochemical activity increases and then decreases with increasing substrate temperature which forms a peak value at 300 °C . Under a light intensity of 187 mW/cm, the electrode deposited at 300 °C gives a saturated photocurrent of 4.1 mA/cm with increasing electrode potential. The highest energy conversion efficiency was calculated as 0.68% at electrode potential of -0.13 V (vs SCE).

As coal was transported homogeneously at high pressure by adding the sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), the hydrogen production from catalytic gasification of coal/CMC in supercritical water (SCW) was investigated. The experimental results showed that the molar fraction of hydrogen is higher than that in conventional gasification. H2, CO2 and CH4 are the main product gases, the higher pressure and higher CMC content is advantage of hydrogen production. Longer residence time is favorite to gasification of coal/CMC, but it is not advantage of hydrogen production from coal/CMC gasified in SCW at 20-25 MPa, 15-30 s and 650°C.

The equilibrium sand transport is simulated by Lagrange model combined with the probabilistic distributions of initial speed and angle of ejection sand grain in this paper. Five forms of the possible distributions are summarized from the previous study results published in literature. Since the macro-quantities simulated by rational distribution should be coincident well with experimental result, the rationality of the distributions can be tested by comparing the quantities simulated from these distributions with the experimental quantities. Detailed analysis indicates that the distribution of initial speed and angle of ejected grains in equilibrium sand transport should be a monotonous decline function. According to the experimental data a segmented function comprised by an exponential distribution and a normal distribution is suggested in this paper. This distributions is confirmed by further comparison with experimental data.

As an important performance diagnosis tool, in-situ measurement of current distribution in PEM fuel cells is helpful for better understanding of internal transport phenomena and optimization of fuel cell structures and operating parameters. With a specially developed current distribution measurement gasket, the effects of reactant gas flow rates on the current distribution in a PEM fuel cell with single serpentine flowfield were investigated. Experimental results show that insufficient hydrogen or air leads to decreased current density along the gas flow direction. Higher reactant gas flow rate favors not only the local performance but also the homogeneity of current distribution. But current distribution almost ceases to change with further increase of hydrogen flow rate when it reaches certain value.

The velocities of liquid slugs in continuous slug flow were studied experimentally in a 133 m long horizontal pipeline. Measurements were performed by cross-correlating the signals of two pairs of probes installed along the pipeline. Correlations of liquid slug velocities with the mixed velocities are presented. It is found that the correlations depend on Froude numbers. At low Froude numbers, the correlation from the measurements of the upstream probes is consistent with that from the measurements of the downstream probes and both correlations agree well with the results of other researchers. But there is difference between the correlation of the upstream probes and that of the downstream probes at high Froude numbers. Compared with the experimental data of other researchers, it is expected that the velocities of liquid slugs are affected by the void fraction in liquid slugs and the evolution of the lengths of liquid slugs and elongated bubbles along pipeline. However, the wake effect may have no influence on the liquid slug velocities.
