Advanced diesel combustion systems continue to push the peak cylinder pressure limit of engines upward to allow high-efficiency combustion with high compression ratios (CR). The air-standard Otto and ....
This paper presents experimental results of a 10.6L, three-cylinder opposed-piston (OP) operating on diesel fuel designed for heavy duty (Class 8) operation. The paper will describe the engine configu....
Knock in gasoline engines at higher loads is a significant constraint on torque and efficiency. The anti-knock property of a fuel is closely related to its research octane number (RON). Ethanol has su....
Despite the advantages of turbocharging in improved engine performance and reduced exhaust emissions, commercial single-cylinder engines used for automotive applications remain naturally aspirated (NA....
The electrification of powertrains provides a critical opportunity to change the way that engines are designed and developed, allowing their efficiency to be increased and their cost reduced. This pap....
A more accurate combustion model, based on Fluent simulations including the effect of flame stretching and extinction, has been added to cycle and road simulations of an Adaptive Cycle Engine (ACE), w....
