  2. 11. Lagrangian CFD Modeling of Impinging Diesel Sprays for DI HCCI

    Author : Per Strålin; Hans-Erik Ångström; Christian Kreuger; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HCCI; Diesel; early direct-injection; impinging nozzle; CFD; Lagrangian modeling; collision models; O’Rourke; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : The homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) concept has been acknowledged as a potential combustion concept for engines, due to low NOx and soot emissions and high efficiency, especially at part-load. Early direct-injection (DI) during the compression stroke is an option when Diesel fuel is used in HCCI. READ MORE

  4. 12. Combustion Bowl Heat Transfer Analysis in Diesel and PPC Engines

    Author : Helgi Fridriksson; Värmeöverföring; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Heat Transfer; CFD; Internal Combustion Engine; Diesel; PPC;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns a numerical investigation on heat transfer in internal combustion engines, with the aim of increasing engine efficiency. The efficiency gains are to be extracted from reduced heat transfer losses, by increasing the knowledge on how the heat transfer process is affected by various hardware and operational parameters in the engine.

  5. 13. Cardiovascular effects of diesel exhaust : mechanistic and interventional studies

    Author : Magnus Lundbäck; Anders Blomberg; Benoit Nemery; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; air pollution; diesel exhaust; nitrogen dioxide; endothelin-1; cardiovascular effects; exhaust particle trap; Lung diseases; Lungsjukdomar; lungmedicin; Lung Medicine;

    Abstract : Background: Air pollution is associated with negative health effects. Exposure to combustion-derived particulate matter (PM) air pollution has been related to increased incidence of cardiovascular and respiratory morbidity and mortality, specifically in susceptible populations. Ambient particles, with a diameter of less than 2. READ MORE

  6. 14. Modeling of Diesel Fuel Spray Formation and Combustion in OpenFOAM

    Author : Anne Kösters; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Combustion; Break-up; OpenFOAM; PaSR; CFD; Diesel; VRFM; VSB2; Spray;

    Abstract : The formation, ignition, and combustion of fuel sprays are highly complex processes and the available models have various shortcomings. The development and application of multidimensional CFD models, that describe the different phenomena have rapidly increased through the use of commercial and public software (e.g. READ MORE

  7. 15. Experimental Investigations of Combustion Chamber Heat Transfer in a Light-Duty Diesel Engine

    Author : Jessica Dahlström; Förbränningsmotorer; []
    Keywords : internal combustion engines; heat transfer; diesel engine; Diesel combustion; combustion chamber geometry; piston geometry; spray parameters;

    Abstract : This work concerned experimental studies of heat transfer in a light-duty diesel engine. Combustion is affected by several parameters, such as pressure, engine speed, mass of injected fuel and in-cylinder gas flow. These parameters are in turn affected by the combustion chamber geometry and fuel spray characteristics. READ MORE
