  2. 6. Waste Heat Recovery in Heavy Duty Diesel Engines

    Author : Jelmer Johannes Rijpkema; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Organic Flash Cycle; Heavy Duty Diesel Engine; Organic Rankine Cycle; Trilateral Flash Cycle; Transcritical Rankine Cycle; Internal Combustion Engines; Waste Heat Recovery;

    Abstract : Over 50% of the energy released by burning fuel in a truck engine is lost as heat rather than being used to propel the vehicle. A promising method for capturing and reusing this heat, and thereby improving engine efficiency, is to exploit thermodynamic cycles for waste heat recovery (WHR). READ MORE

  4. 7. Gasoline Engine HCCI Combustion - Extending the high load limit

    Author : Daniel Dahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NVO; stratified charge; gasoline engine; high load; knock.; HCCI; stoichiometric; CAI; ringing; SCCI;

    Abstract : There is an increasing global focus on reducing emissions of greenhouse gases.For the automotive industry this means reducing CO2 emissions of the vehiclesmanufactured, which is synonymous with reducing their fuel consumption oradapting them for using renewable fuels. READ MORE

  5. 8. Thermal Barrier Coatings for Diesel Engines

    Author : Anders Thibblin; Ulf Olofsson; Stefan Jonsson; Senad Dizdar; Uta Klement; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal barrier coatings; diesel engine; thermal cycling fatigue; heat flux; running-in; exhaust manifolds; yttria-stabilized zirconia; gadolinium zirconate; lanthanum zirconate; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Reducing the heat losses in heavy-duty diesel engines is of importance for improving engine efficiency and reducing CO2 emissions. Depositing thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) onto engine components has been demonstrated to have great potential to reduce heat loss from the combustion chamber as well as from exhaust components.

  6. 9. Thermometry Using Laser-Induced Emission from Thermographic Phosphors: Development and Applications in Combustion

    Author : Alaa Omrane; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; framdrivningssystem; Motorer; Motors and propulsion systems; Laser technology; Laserteknik; Teknik; Technological sciences; Physics; Pyrolysis; Flame spread; Droplet; Engine; Imaging; Temperature; Thermographic phosphors; Combustion; Fysik; Laser diagnostics;

    Abstract : Temperature is a fundamental thermodynamic parameter used to describe physical, chemical and biological processes. Much effort is made to measure temperature accurately in a wide variety of applications, making temperature one of the most extensively measured parameters. READ MORE

  7. 10. System Simulation of Partially Premixed Combustion in Heavy-Duty Engines : Gas Exchange, Fuels and In-cylinder Analysis

    Author : Erik Svensson; Förbränningsmotorer; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Partially Premixed Combustion PPC ; Compression ignition; Direct injection; Methanol; Engine optimization; Stochastic reactor model; T-phi diagrams; Partially premixed combustion; Compression Ignition; Direct Injection; Methanol; Engine Optimization; Stochastic reactor model; Gas exchange; T-phi diagrams;

    Abstract : The concept of partially premixed combustion (PPC), applied to conventional diesel engines, has shown to yield high gross efficiencies and low emissions of oxides of nitrogen and soot. PPC emerged from the knowledge gained from homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) research. READ MORE
