2. 1. Experimental Studies of Advanced Ignition Systems for Lean Burn Natural Gas Engines

   Author : Jessica Dahlström; Förbränningsmotorer; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ignition system; spark energy; internal combustion engine; engine; spark ignition; natural gas;

   Abstract : One of the greatest challenges for the transport sector today is reducing its environmental impact. This applies especially to the emission aspects, much due to increasingly stringent emissions legislations. READ MORE

4. 2. Particle Emissions from Ships

   Author : Maria Zetterdahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LNG; marine fuel; fuel sulphur content; particle emission; sulphur emission control area; aromatics; SECA; heavy fuel oil; marine diesel oil; liquefied natural gas; ship emission;

   Abstract : Since 1st of January 2015 ships operating in sulphur emission control areas (SECAs) have to use marine fuels with a fuel sulphur content less than 0.1 %m/m. This regulation forces the ship owners to make a fuel shift and use low-sulphur marine fuel oils, use alternative fuels or use scrubbers on-board their ships. READ MORE

5. 3. Development of Methods for Analysis and Optimization of Complex Jet Engine Systems

   Author : Tomas Grönstedt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; optimal control; variable cycle engine; performance analysis; double bypass variable cycle engine; jet engine; BDF methods; selective bleed variable cycle engine; turbofan; ODAE;

   Abstract : This thesis describes the development of GESTPAN (GEneral Stationary and Transient Propulsion ANalysis), a generalized system for the design, steady-state and transient simulation of gas turbine systems. Some of the main achievements in the thesis are related to the development of new algorithms or integration of existing numerics tailored to simplify the structure and use of generalized gas turbine simulation systems.

6. 4. Development of high temperature SiC based field effect sensors for internal combustion engine exhaust gas monitoring

   Author : Helena Wingbrant; Anita Lloyd-Spetz; Karin Larsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; field effect sensor; gas detection; selective catalytic reduction; lambda; cold start; ammonia; silicon carbide; engine exhaust.; Physics; Fysik;

   Abstract : While the car fleet becomes increasingly larger it is important to lower the amounts of pollutants from each individual diesel or gasoline engine to almost zero levels. The pollutants from these engines predominantly originate from high NOx emissions and particulates, in the case when diesel is utilized, and emissions at cold start from gasoline engines. READ MORE

7. 5. Laser Spectroscopic Techniques for Combustion Diagnostics Directed Towards Industrial Applications

   Author : Hans Seyfried; Förbränningsfysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Teknik; Technological sciences; Fysik; Physics; Combustion; Gas turbine; HCCI; Engine; High-Speed; Thermographic phosphors; PLIF; LIF; Laser Diagnostics; Laser-Induced Fluorescence; Laser technology; Laserteknik; Motors and propulsion systems; Motorer; framdrivningssystem;

   Abstract : In the work presented in the thesis, different laser spectroscopic techniques were utilized for measurement of species concentrations, as well as for surface thermometry. Experiments were conducted in various combustion environments, ranging from laboratory burners to truck-sized internal combustion (IC) engines, gas turbine combustors and a full-size aircraft turbofan engine.
