Abstract: Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is a novel combustion strategy for IC engines that exhibits dramatic decreases in fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. Originally conceived in ...

Abstract: This paper describes an accurate, flexible, and computationally efficient whole engine model incorporating a multizone, quasidimension combustion submodel for a 6.7-l six-cylinder turbocharged diesel ...

Abstract: One practical method for achieving homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) in internal combustion engines is to modulate the valves to trap or reinduct exhaust gases, increasing the energy ...

Abstract: A substantial opportunity exists to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, as well as dependence on foreign oil, by developing strategies to cleanly and efficiently use biodiesel, a renewable ...

Abstract: Premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI), an advanced mode combustion strategy, promises to simultaneously deliver the fuel efficiency of diesel combustion and the ultralow NOx emissions that ...

Abstract: As engine designers look for ways to improve efficiency and reduce emissions, piezoelectric actuated fuel injectors for common rail diesel engines have shown to have improved response characteristics ...
