What is it about?
Chemically, combustion is an oxidation process that releases heat energy and by-products, mostly gases. They are used to do work by expansion process. It's not just the gaseous volume that does work but its associated heat energy. This heat energy is highly randomized in nature. My work, will reveal how any kind of combustion process (not limited to internal combustion engines), can behave orderly or in other words, more useful and follow a particular pattern in the process of releasing heat energy and doing physical work as a bulk of working fluid.

Why is it important?
We are at the verge of finding and switching over to a stable renewable energy platform. Experimenting on combustion will not only prove useful in saving natural energy resources, but will also help us understand how energy transforms and transits. My primary motive behind this work of mine is take a stand on global pollution from combustion-driven systems. Process efficiency is a compliment.
Perspectives
This analytical work will help engineers to design combustion efficient engines and other work abstracting systems that would consume exact fuel and give out only combustion products that wont harm living beings. The hazardous pollutants from incomplete combustion will be stopped from being produced. Heat intensity will also be reduced by patterned burning of fuel-air mixture, thereby avoiding formation of nitrogen oxides, which too are hazardous.
