2. 1. Torque based combustion property estimation and control for diesel engines

   Author : Mikael Thor; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Crankshaft torque measurements; Engine control; Combustion modeling; Diesel engines; Closed-loop control; Internal combustion engines; Combustion property estimation; Combustion phasing;

   Abstract : Modern diesel engines are becoming increasingly complex as a result of demands on the reduction of both fuel consumption and emissions. This escalating complexity not only applies to the engine itself, but also to its control system. READ MORE

4. 2. Optical Diagnostics Applied to Internal Combustion Engines: Catalysis, Sprays and Combustion

   Author : Stina Hemdal; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sprays; Optical diagnostics; engines; ; combustion; spray-guided; SGDI; Direct-injection; catalys;

   Abstract : Gasoline direct injection with spray-guided charge formation is one of the most promising concepts to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of spark ignited engines. The advantages with the system are owing to un-throttled operation and stratification of the injected fuel resulting in a globally lean combustion. READ MORE

5. 3. Computer Modeling of HCCI Combustion

   Author : Roy Ogink; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; detailed-chemistry; surrogate fuel; homogeneous charge compression ignition; internal combustion engines; modeling; HCCI; gasoline; auto-ignition; combustion;

   Abstract : During the last decade an alternative to conventional internal combustion engines, i.e. spark-ignited and Diesel engines, has been under investigation by an ever-increasing number of research groups. READ MORE

6. 4. On Alternative Fuels for Internal Combustion Engines : A study of biodiesel, gaseous methane and methanol

   Author : Ludvig Adlercreutz; Andreas Cronhjort; Ola Stenlåås; Magnus Sjöberg; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gaseous methane combustion; spark ignition; single cylinder research engine; particle number; particle emissions; oil ash content; CO2; Green House Gases; engine testing; engine development; emissions; combustion chamber design; injector fouling; environmental impact; road transportation; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

   Abstract :  This thesis covers some of the environmental impacts of internalcombustion engines running on alternative fuels. The focus of thestudies conveyed is the reduction of greenhouse gases and particleemissions, as these two factors are of great importance for the pathsthat road transportation is facing. READ MORE

7. 5. Development and application of laser diagnostics - from laboratory devices towards practical combustion engines

   Author : Zhenkan Wang; Förbränningsfysik; []
   Keywords : Combustion diagnostics; Laser induced fluorescence LIF ; Ultra-high-speed; Burst-mode laser; Ballistic imaging; Particle imaging velocimetry; Laser Doppler anemometry; Turbulent premixed combustion; Plasma; Internal combustion engine; Partially premixed combustion PPC ; Auto-ignition; OH radical; CH2O formaldehyde ; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Wang;

   Abstract : For many decades, research work on combustion has been focused on improving combustion efficiency and reducing harmful emissions. Laser diagnostics is one of the best ways to investigate the combustion process and emission formation as it is non-intrusive and it has high spatiotemporal resolution. READ MORE
