BioEthanol for Sustainable Transport

The project included demonstration of two types of bioethanol-powered buses, a diesel engine Scania bus running on ED95 (sugarcane ethanol plus an ignition improver) and a Dongfeng bus capable of running on both E100 and petrol (flexible-fuel bus).

Cagiva Mito

On a technical level, the bike retains much the same rolling chassis as the Evo and the engine is still a 125 cc two-stroke, but has had several changes, notably a new Electronic Carburetion System (developed in conjunction with Dell'Orto) governing both fuel-air, oil-mix and ignition, allowing it to pass tougher Euro 3 emissions regulations.

Capacitor discharge ignition

The history of the capacitor discharge ignition system can be traced back to the 1890s when it is believed that Nikola Tesla was the first to propose such an ignition system.

Carbureted compression ignition model engine

The fuel used contains Diethyl ether, which is highly volatile and has an extremely low flash point, combined with kerosene and a lubricant plus a very small proportion (typically 2%) of ignition improver such as Amyl nitrite or preferably Isopropyl nitrate nowadays.

CCAI

Calculated Carbon Aromaticity Index, an index to calculate the ignition quality of residual fuel oil

Circus Lupus

Circus Lupus was a post-hardcore band based in the area of Washington, DC, U.S. The band originally formed in Madison where one-time Ignition and Soul Side bassist Chris Thomson met guitarist Chris Hamley and drummer Arika Casebolt while attending school.

Dual ignition

The Hewland AE75, an inline 3-cylinder aero-engine created for the ARV Super2, had three ignition circuits, one for each cylinder.

Ducati SuperSport

The Marelli Digiplex ignition was used in early models, and then replaced by a Kokusan ignition.

Edward Andrew Deeds

In 1909, Henry Leland of the Cadillac Company ordered 5,000 ignition sets and Deeds and Kettering formed the Dayton Engineering Laboratories company, Delco.

Fart lighting

In the 1999 episode "Spontaneous Combustion" of South Park, spontaneous human combustion is attributed to people's flatulence acting as the ignition.

Although there is little scientific discourse on the combustive properties of flatus, there are many anecdotal accounts of flatus ignition and the activity has increasingly found its way into popular culture with references in comic routines, movies, and television; including cartoons.

Ford EEC

Like the General Motors H.E.I. module that preceded it, it was created with Surface-mount technology parts, allowing it to be much smaller than the previous Dura-Spark ignition module.

EEC-III uses a Dura-Spark III module (Brown grommet where wires emerge) and a Dura-Spark II ignition coil.

Fréjus Rail Tunnel

The construction, directed by Germain Sommeiller, was scheduled to take 25 years, but was completed in only 14 years thanks to technical innovations such as pneumatic drilling machines and electrical ignition of explosive charges.

Hiero 6

The engine had the typical features of an inline vertical 6-cylinder: aluminum bed, cast iron cylinders, one inlet and one exhaust valve per cylinder controlled by bars and rockers, with the cam-shaft in the bed, and dual ignition by two Bosch magnetos.

High energy ignition

A predecessor system was optional on Pontiacs as "code 704 UPC K65 unitized ignition system" for the 1972-73 model year.

Ignition Management

Between 2000-2010 Ignition also managed North American clients Mercury Rev and Black Mountain, as well as New Zealand based Crowded House.

Ignition system

The first ignition system to use an electric spark was probably Alessandro Volta's toy electric pistol from the 1780s.

It consisted of a single coil, points (the switch), a capacitor and a distributor set up to allocate the spark from the ignition coil timed to the correct cylinder.

Insurgency weapons and tactics

A Molotov cocktail is a breakable glass bottle containing a flammable substance such as gasoline/petrol or a napalm-like mixture, with some motor oil added, and usually a source of ignition such as a burning cloth wick held in place by the bottle's stopper.

Jay Frank

He then acted as a marketing and A&R for Ignition Records before serving as senior music director at The Box Music Network.

Lancia Delta

A larger capacity Garrett T3 turbocharger with improved air flow and bigger inter-cooler to aid volumetric efficiency, together with revised settings for the electronic injection/ignition control unit and a knock sensor, boost power output to 185 bhp (DIN) (136 kW) at 5300 rpm and maximum torque of 31 m·kgf (304 N·m, 224 lbf·ft) at 3500 rpm.

Lighter

It consists of a metal or plastic container filled with a flammable fluid or pressurized liquid gas, a means of ignition, and some provision for extinguishing the flame.

Lucas 14CUX

The 14CUX is capable of storing diagnostic trouble codes in a 32-byte segment of its internal memory that is maintained (even while vehicle ignition is off) by applying 5VDC (regulated down from 12VDC from the vehicle's battery.) Because of this maintainer voltage, the ECU is always drawing a small amount of current.

Mobile radio

In time, problems with sources of electrical noise showed that frequency modulation (FM) was superior for its ability to cope with vehicle ignition and power line noise.

Nitrogen oxide sensor

However, owing to much higher combustion temperatures due to high cylinder compression and turbo or supercharging, diesel engines produce much higher engine-out NOx emissions than do spark-ignition gasoline engines, but the nonexistent NOx after-treatment causes diesel engines to emit significantly more NOx at the tailpipe compared to a typical gasoline engine with a 3-way catalyst.

POMCUS

During the late 1960s-1980s, the above-ground POMCUS facilities were updated into large aluminum-over-steel warehouses, which provided the benefits of less weathering and lower maintenance requirements for the systems stored in them, as well as providing first-line defense against EMP radiation which could affect the electronics in both the communications systems and the recently implemented solid-state ignition systems on some vehicles.

Position Ignition

Position Ignition is a Careers Guidance Service that provides career support, advice and guidance to individuals and organizations.

Rock Ignition

Rock Ignition has shared the stage with bands like Uriah Heep, Jon Oliva's Pain, Axxis, Mike Tramp, Circle II Circle, Vanden Plas, At Vance, Elvenking, Kamelot, Sons of Seasons, headlined the AguiRock Festival 2008 in Tarragona (Spain) and opened the IV German Metal Meeting in Kerkrade (Netherlands).

RP-1

John D. Clark mentions in "Ignition!" that while the RP-1 specification was being developed, Rocketdyne was experimenting with diethyl cyclohexane.

Saab Direct Ignition

In the illustration to the right, the spark plugs are directly coupled to the "DIC" (or "IDM") which houses the ignition coils and electronics that measure cylinder ionization for use by the Trionic engine management system.

Sechseläuten

On 14 April 2008, heavy rains soaked the Böögg and the wood pyre materials so much that "firemen" in the style of Fahrenheit 451 had to spray the pyre with kerosene or fuel oil after initial ignition in addition to 15 liters of fire accelerant which was initially thrown on the pyre.

Secret Agent Clank

Secret Agent Clank (known as Clank & Ratchet: Mission Ignition in Japan) is a platform game developed by High Impact Games for the PlayStation Portable and published by Sony Computer Entertainment.

ST Voorbode

Because the explosion occurred on Adolf Hitler's birthday, there was some suspicion of sabotage, but investigations revealed that the explosion was an accident caused by self-ignition.

Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Mission

March 28, 2011: Swift detected GRB 110328A, which subsequent analysis showed to possibly be the signature of a star being disrupted by a black hole or the ignition of an active galactic nucleus.

Volvo B4B engine
