Recent turbocharged Gasoline engines based on MPFI offer excellent power output and high nominal torque, however, also some disadvantages. The most significant restrictions of TC-engines - like poor f....
The spray-guided BMW DI combustion system eliminates the most important disadvantages of the wall-and air-guided 1st generation DI combustion systems. With its central injector position, the spray-gui....
Ignition stability was studied in an optical spray guided spark ignition direct injection engine. The impact of intake air dilution with nitrogen, spark plug orientation, ignition system dwell time, a....
A Spray Guided Direct Injection (SGDI) engine has been shown to emit less Particulate Matter (PM) than a first generation (wall guided) Direct Injection Spark Ignition (DISI) engine. The reduction is ....
An experimental investigation into the structure and flame propagation characteristics of stratified and homogeneous combustion has been performed in an optically-accessible, direct-injection spark ig....
In this paper, results of experimental and numerical investigations of stratified exhaust gas recirculation in a single-cylinder gasoline engine are presented. The engine was operated in spray guided ....
There is a great deal of interest in new technologies to assist in reducing the CO2 output of passenger vehicles, as part of the drive to meet the limits agreed by the EU and the European Automobile M....
A new V-6 3.5-liter gasoline engine (2GR-FSE) uses a newly developed stoichiometric direct injection system with two fuel injectors in each cylinder (D-4S: Direct injection 4-stroke gasoline engine sy....
Spray angle and penetration length data were taken under cold start conditions for a Direct Injection Spark Ignition engine to investigate the effect of transient conditions on spray development. The ....
Droplet size and velocity measurements were taken under cold start conditions for a Direct Injection Spark Ignition engine to investigate the effect of transient conditions on spray development. The r....
This paper focuses on the possibility of enhancing the atomization process by testing several type of needle for the pressure-swirl gasoline direct injector. Under similar operating condition, three t....
Spray guided DISI, a next-generation DISI system, is now under development as a gasoline engine which will contribute to improving fuel consumption. The authors have carried out a study to improve fue....
The slit nozzle in the fuel injection valve for a direct injection spark ignition gasoline engine forms a thin, fan-shaped spray. The fan-shaped spray is characterized by high dispersion, comparativel....
This paper presents the experimental results of a new look at throttle body injection (TBI) for LPG, targeting the same objectives as fourth generation LPG systems. The TBI system is configured from C....
Flame stretch arises due to strain and change in flame curvature and is extremely important in spark ignition (SI) engine combustion. It can significantly alter the flame speed and hence, the burning ....
Bench fuel injection experiments were performed to investigate the levels of generated fuel vapor immediately after fuel injection into a closed vessel. A synthetic fuel mixture was used consisting of....
A second law analysis of spark ignition (SI) engines has been conducted to identify areas in which work capability is presently lost due to either thermodynamic irreversibilities or undesirable work t....
Novel Combustion technologies and strategies show high potential in reducing the fuel consumption of gasoline spark ignition (SI) engines. In this paper, a comparison between various gasoline combusti....
The relation between in-cylinder mixture formation and combustion, i.e. knocking is investigated with using 1cylinder firing tests, CFD calculations, LIF measurements for the various direct injection ....
In an effort to both increase engine efficiency and generate new, consistent, and reliable data useful for the development of engine concepts, a modern single-cylinder 4-valve spark-ignition research ....
