To make an HCCI engine as a useful commercial product, the engine has to be capable of performing quick transients in a large operating range, especially in vehicle applications. HCCI combustion is ki....
Controlling ignition delay is the key to successfully enable partially premixed combustion in diesel engines. This paper presents experimental results of partially premixed combustion in an optically ....
Partially premixed combustion has the potential of high efficiency and simultaneous low soot and NOx emissions. Running the engine in PPC mode with high octane number fuels has the advantage of a long....
The HCCI engine offers the potential of low NOx emissions combined with diesel engine like high efficiency, however HCCI operation is restricted to low engine speeds and torques constrained by narrow ....
A reduced kinetic model for n-heptane, i-octane, n-cetane and heptamethylnonane is developed based on that for the primary reference fuel (n-heptane and i-octane). The present model, which can be easi....
Reactivity controlled compression ignition through in-cylinder blending gasoline and diesel to a desired reactivity has previously been shown to give low emission levels and a clear simultaneous effic....
Prior studies have shown that fuel addition during negative valve overlap (NVO) can both increase temperature and alter composition of the charge carried over to main HCCI combustion. Late NVO fuel in....
The most common car engine is a 4-cylinder 4-stroke engine. The car manufacturers have a great pressure to lower the cost of the cars and this deal also with the engines. The challenges are the coming....
