  2. 1. Zero and Multi-Dimensional Modeling of Internal Combustion Engines with respect to Ion Current and Soot Formation

    Author : Abdelhadi Ahmedi; Institutioner vid LTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; engine knock; pollutant emissions; detailed chemical kinetics; thermal ionization.; ion current sensor; method of moments; ionization; soot formation oxidation; modeling; auto-ignition; Spark ignition engine; diesel engine;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis can be divided into the three following fields of investigation: First of all the ionization model developed in this thesis is meant to simulate the thermal ionization process or the so-called second peak. Equilibrium assumptions have been adopted for the modeling of the thermal ionization, in which Saha’s equation was derived for singly ionized molecules. READ MORE

  4. 2. Theoretical and Experimental Studies of the Formation of Ionized Gases in Spark Ignition Engines

    Author : Raymond Reinmann; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thermal Ionization; Calorimetry; Interferometry; Spark Ignition Engine; Current and Voltage Measurements; Engine Control.; fluid dynamics; Gases; plasmas; Gaser; plasma; fluiddynamik; Breakdown; Arc; Glow; Flame Ionization; Chemi-Ionization; Spark; Townsend; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Reinmann;

    Abstract : The processes that govern the formation, existence and consumption of ions in gases have been studied both experimentally and theoretically. The aim of the work is targeted at increasing the understanding of these phenomena in the working gases inside an engine. READ MORE

  5. 3. Characterization of an Electrical Sensor for Combustion Diagnostics

    Author : Axel Franke; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ion sensor; combustion; nitric oxide; chemi-ionization; equilibrium; Physics; ionized gases; Fysicumarkivet A:2002:Franke; ionization sensor; Fysik;

    Abstract : The ionization sensor is an electrical probe for diagnostics in internal combustion engines. The combustion process affects the electrical properties of the gas in the cylinder. Thus the sensor signal contains copious information about the conditions in the combustion chamber. READ MORE

  6. 4. Ion Current and Torque Modeling for Combustion Engine Control

    Author : Ingemar Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Engine control development constantly requires more information about the combustion process, to meet present and future environmental regulations for vehicles. The demand for combustion monitoring and control from enginedevelopers drives the research in several parallel fields of technology to find the best and most cost effective sensor solution for each case.

  7. 5. Spark Advance Modeling and Control

    Author : Lars Eriksson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The spark advance determines the efficiency of spark-ignited (SI) engines by positioning the combustion in relation to the piston motion. Today's spark-advance controllers are open loopsystems that measure parameters that effect the spark-advance setting and compensate for their effects. READ MORE
