缅北强奸 project on zero-carbon metal fuels launches into space
Recently, a project testing metal combustion led by the Alternative Fuels Laboratory at 缅北强奸 launched on a European Space Agency rocket.
The project, an international collaboration between the Alternative Fuels Laboratory at 缅北强奸, the European Space Agency, the Canadian Space Agency, and Airbus Defence and Space, aims to improve scientific understanding of metal flames, laying the groundwork for a new type of green engine that burns iron powder, with only rust as a by-product.
鈥淏urning metal powders, such as iron, doesn鈥檛 produce CO2 emissions. Unlike oil, natural gas, or coal, metals can serve as a truly sustainable way for storing and transporting clean renewable energy,鈥� says J.M. Bergthorson, Professor of mechanical engineering at 缅北强奸.
For six minutes in zero gravity before falling back to Earth, 缅北强奸鈥檚 PERWAVES experiment provided a unique glimpse at discrete fire, a new type of combustion that jumps from one fuel source to another. This experiment is not possible on earth because the metal particles settle too quickly with gravity.
The results will be analyzed to explore the ideal conditions for such combustion on earth and could one day be used to power things like vehicles with zero-carbon emissions.
