There are few reported situations in which a drop of liquid will remain intact in ambient conditions for an indefinite period of time. The paper describes a situation where this happens. The phenomenon was noticed during experiments concerned with the development of a novel rotational speed sensor. It proved to be a substantial rather than a passing occurrence.

This paper presents a conception of a system designed for monitoring combustion process in a multi-cylinder combustion engine. The proposed system is based on the application of a pressure sensor installed in one of the engine’s cylinders. The analysis of the combustion process in the remaining cylinders is possible as a result of analyzing the course of the rotational speed by means of a sensor with a large resolution integrated with engine control phase sensor. This paper presents results of the initial testing of its operation and results of research into a system named CPMOS (Combustion Process Onboard Monitoring System) dedicated to a self-ignition engine of an off-highway vehicle. The use of an algorithm which applies a synthesis of a pressure sensor signal and rotational speed sensor offers the possibility of gaining a reconstructed course of pressure in all cylinders in the engine. The proposed measurement of pressure in a cylinder not involving fuel injection system can provide more detailed information regarding the course of the combustion process in the particular cylinders. The proposed concept of the CPMOS system leads to a decrease in the overall system cost as a result of the application of a single pressure sensor in a single cylinder. The future potential application of the monitoring of the combustion in each cylinder can enable the improvement of the operating parameters of the cylinders as a result of optimizing the control of the fuel injection system, EGR system and systems used for limiting exhaust gases used in the vehicle.

Turbodrills play an important role in underground energy mining. The downhole rotational speed of turbodrills is one of the key parameters for controlling the drilling technology. Therefore, it is necessary to measure the rotational speed of the turbodrills in real time. However, there is no dedicated speed sensor for the working environment of turbodrills at present. Therefore, based on the working principle of triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), a self-powered speed sensor which can measure the speed of the turbodrills is proposed in this study. Besides, since the sensor is self-powered, it can operate without power supply. According to the laboratory test results, the measurement error of the sensor is less than 5%. In addition, the self-powered performance of the sensor was also explored in this study. The test shows that the maximum generating voltage of the sensor is about 27 V, the maximum current is about 7 μA, the maximum power is about 2 × 10−4 W, and the generated electricity can supply power for ten LED (light-emitting diode), which not only meets the power supply requirements of the sensor itself, but also makes it possible to further power other underground instruments.
