2. 1. Discribing the Auto-Ignition Quality of Fuels in HCCI Engines

   Author : Per Risberg; David E. Foster; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Auto-Ignition Quality; RON; MON; Cetane Number; HCCI; CAI and Fuels; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : The Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine is a promising engine concept that emits low concentrations of NOx and particulates and still has a high efficiency. Since the charge is auto-ignited, the auto-ignition quality of the fuel is of major importance. READ MORE

5. 3. Biodiesel Spray Combustion Modeling Based on a Detailed Chemistry Approach

   Author : Junfeng Yang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reduction and Validation; Spray Characteristics; Detailed Chemistry; Biodiesel;

   Abstract : Replacing conventional diesel fuels with biodiesel has the potential to drastically reduce engine-out emissions of soot, carbon monoxide, and total unburnt hydrocarbons, at the cost of slightly increased nitrogen oxide emissions. However, to realize the full benefits of using biofuels in this way, there is a need for theoretical models describing their combustion in internal combustion engines. READ MORE
