It starts with a brief review of injector technologies and the impact of the spray characteristics on the combustion system optimization.
In order to respond to the next generation Tokamak need, PELIN Laboratory at Saint Petersburg, CEA-DRFC at Cadarache and CEA-SBT at Grenoble started in 2000 a tripartite collaboration to promote new pellet injector technologies.
Extracted FAMEs were analyzed by gas chromatography - flame ionization detector (GC-FID) (Agilent Technologies 6850 with 7683B Series injector and FID detector) and a HP-5 column, length 30 m, I.D. 0.25 mm, film 0.25 μm (Agilent Technologies).
Advances in injector technology are needed to operate at shorter wavelengths, such as X-rays, or higher average powers.
Such new insight could help improve technologies like fuel injectors in internal combustion engines, the researchers say.
MIT reported on injector technology in the online January issue of the journal Medical Engineering & Physics.
Analysis of FAME was performed using a quadruple GC System (Agilent Technologies, 6890N Network GC System, 7683 Series Injector) equipped with a split/splitless injector.
The GC-MS analysis was carried out using an Agilent 6890 N Series network gas chromatograph equipped with a 7683B series auto injector (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA).
An Agilent 6890 N gas chromatography instrument coupled with an Agilent MS-5975 inert XL mass selective detector and an Agilent auto sampler 7683-B injector (Agilent Technologies, Little Fall, NY, USA) was used.
GC-MS hardware comprised an Agilent 6890 series GC system fitted with a 7683 series autosampler injector (Agilent Technologies GmbH, Waldbronn, Germany) coupled to a Leco Pegasus 2 time-of-flight mass spectrometer (LECO, St. Joseph, MI, USA).
