uniform gas quality as it is affected by flow conditions through the gasifier
system, the pressure drop across the gasifier system, and the gas tempera-
ture at the gasifier outlet, varying with both engine design and operating
conditions.
Small gasifier systems operate on engine suction encounter pul-

engine design, especially its operating speed, stroke to bore ratio, and
the extent of damping provided by the gas cooling and cleaning system.
