Sridhar recently forwarded us information about his paper about Producer Gas Engines. It is an interesting paper, and we've posted a link to it from the gasification web site, but you can also get it directly from the publisher with this link.
G. Sridhar and Ravindra Babu Yarasu (2010). Facts about Producer Gas Engine , Paths to Sustainable Energy, Jatin Nathwani and Artie Ng (Ed.), ISBN: 978-953-307-401-6, InTech, Available from: http://www.intechopen.com/articles/show/title/facts-about-producer-gas-engin e To sum up, they connected an engine that has been designed to run on producer gas, to a downdraft gasifier, and recording and analyzing the results. There may be some surprises here, like the lack of knock at higher compression ratios, and the information gathering is both sound, and beautifully presented.
