Modelling the Transmission of Coxiella burnetii within a UK Dairy Herd: Investigating the Interconnected Relationship between the Parturition Cycle and Environment Contamination (2022)
Journal Article
Patsatzis, D. G., Wheelhouse, N., & Tingas, E. (2022). Modelling the Transmission of Coxiella burnetii within a UK Dairy Herd: Investigating the Interconnected Relationship between the Parturition Cycle and Environment Contamination. Veterinary Sciences,

Q fever infection in dairy herds is introduced through the transmission of the bacterium Coxiella burnetii, resulting in multiple detrimental effects such as reduction of lactation, abortions and chronic infection. Particularly in the UK, recent evid...

Computational investigation of ammonia-hydrogen peroxide blends in HCCI engine mode (2022)
Journal Article
Shafiq, O., & Tingas, E. (2023). Computational investigation of ammonia-hydrogen peroxide blends in HCCI engine mode. International Journal of Engine Research, 24(5), 2279-2294. https://doi.org/10.1177/14680874221117686

The potential use of hydrogen peroxide as an ignition promoter to enable the use of ammonia in compression ignition engines is explored in the current study. A simplified numerical HCCI engine model within the Chemkin Pro suite is employed. The numer... Read More about Computational investigation of ammonia-hydrogen peroxide blends in HCCI engine mode.

Numerical analysis of zero-carbon HCCI engine fuelled with steam diluted H2/H2O2 blends (2022)
Journal Article
Fernie, O., Megaritis, T., Ganippa, L. C., & Tingas, E. (2022). Numerical analysis of zero-carbon HCCI engine fuelled with steam diluted H2/H2O2 blends. Fuel, 326, Article 125100. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2022.125100

The addition of hydrogen peroxide and steam to a hydrogen-fuelled HCCI engine was investigated at various fuel lean conditions ( = 0.2–0.6) and compression ratios (15–20) using a 0-dimensional numerical model. The use of hydrogen peroxide as an ignit... Read More about Numerical analysis of zero-carbon HCCI engine fuelled with steam diluted H2/H2O2 blends.

Computational analysis of an HCCI engine fuelled with hydrogen/hydrogen peroxide blends (2022)
Journal Article
Dimitrova, I. D., Megaritis, T., Ganippa, L. C., & Tingas, E. (2022). Computational analysis of an HCCI engine fuelled with hydrogen/hydrogen peroxide blends. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 47(17), 10083-10096. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhyden

In the current work, Chemkin Pro's HCCI numerical model is used in order to explore the feasibility of using hydrogen in a dual fuel concept where hydrogen peroxide acts as ignition promoter. The analysis focuses on the engine performance characteris... Read More about Computational analysis of an HCCI engine fuelled with hydrogen/hydrogen peroxide blends.
