2. 6. Reducing Diesel Engine Emissions - An Experimental Investigation

   Author : Arjan Helmantel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Optical methods; Soot; Diesel; Emissions; HCCI;

   Abstract : In the recent past, the Diesel engine has been improved considerably in the areas ofperformance, fuel efficiency and exhaust emissions. In Europe, these improvements haveresulted in a strong increase in the sales of passenger cars equipped with a Diesel engine. READ MORE

4. 7. Optical Diagnostics of Soot in Combusting Sprays

   Author : Raul Lima Ochoterena; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Optical diagnostics.; Laser Induced Incandescence LII ; Elastic Light Scattering ELS ; Soot formation; Flame temperature; Spray combustion; Light Extinction LE ;

   Abstract : Optical diagnostics in combusting diesel sprays were carried out in the Chalmers High Pressure, High Temperature (HP/HT) spray rig at conditions similar to those in an internal combustion engine, reaching up to 100 bar and 630 ◦ C. Spray development studies and combustion characterisation were done by high speed shadowgraphs that were digitally processed to measure the start of combustion, break-up, droplets and vapour penetration.

5. 8. High Repetition Rate Laser Diagnostics for Combustion Applications

   Author : Johan Sjöholm; Förbränningsfysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spray; diesel; optical engine; simultaneous; laser-induced fluorescence; fuel tracer; SLIPI; Raman; LII; laser diagnostic; combustion; high repetition rate; high-speed; PLIF; multi-YAG; LIF; fuel jet; Fysicumarkivet A:2012:Sjöholm;

   Abstract : High repetition rate laser diagnostics has proven to be a useful tool for studying combustion phenomena. Laser techniques are, in general, relatively non-intrusive and have the potential to measure specific species at very low concentrations and with extremely high temporal resolution. READ MORE

6. 9. Processes in Optical Diesel Engines - Emissions Formation and Heat Release

   Author : Ulf Aronsson; Förbränningsmotorer; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Diesel Engines; Optical Engines; Heat Release; Combustion; Emissions Formation; Mechanical Deformation;

   Abstract : This project deals with questions related to generic diesel combustion research and optically accessible engines are used to study the combustion process. Images of the combustion are analyzed together with in-cylinder pressure and exhaust gas emission measurements. READ MORE

7. 10. Engine Knock: Characteristics and Mechanisms

   Author : Klaas Burgdorf; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SWACER; SI engines; quasi-detonation; autoignition; developing detonation; knock;

   Abstract : Knock in SI engines limits both power density and fuel conversion efficiency. The main mechanisms with the potential to generate the cylinder pressure fluctuations generally observed during knocking combustion are discussed. It is reasoned that some mechanisms of flame acceleration can further amplify a shock wave generated by autoignition. READ MORE
