2. 1. Spark Assisted Compression Ignition, SACI

   Author : Håkan Persson; Förbränningsmotorer; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flame propagation; PLIF; LDV; chemiluminescence imaging; residuals; negative valve overlap; low temperature combustion; SACI; spark assistance; HCCI; turbulence; charge stratification; cycle to cycle;

   Abstract : The strong focus on decreasing carbon dioxide emissions due to limited natural resources of fossil fuel as well as alarming climate changes drives the research and development of our prime mover, the combustion engine, faster then ever. The minimum requirement is a power source with increased efficiency while emitting ultra low levels of hazardous local and regional emissions. READ MORE

4. 2. 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

5. 3. Theoretical and Experimental Studies of the Formation of Ionized Gases in Spark Ignition Engines
