Investigation of Cold Starting and Combustion Mode Switching as Methods to Improve Low Load RCCI Operation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) is an engine combustion strategy that utilizes incylinder fuel blending to produce low NOx and particulate matter (PM) emissions while maintaining high thermal efficiency. ...
Investigation of Combustion Phasing Control Strategy During Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition (RCCI) Multicylinder Engine Load Transitions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The dual fuel reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) concept has been successfully demonstrated to be a promising, more controllable, high efficiency, and cleaner combustion mode. A multidimensional computational ...
Use of Adaptive Injection Strategies to Increase the Full Load Limit of RCCI Operation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dualfuel combustion using portinjection of low reactivity fuel combined with direct injection (DI) of a higher reactivity fuel, otherwise known as reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI), has been shown as a ...
Experimental Comparison of Gasoline Compression Ignition and Diesel Combustion in a Medium-Duty Opposed-Piston Engine
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Achates Power Inc. (API) opposed-piston (OP) engine architecture provides fundamental advantages that increase thermal efficiency over current poppet valve 4 stroke engines. In this paper, the combustion performance ...
Initial Results on a New Light-Duty 2.7-L Opposed-Piston Gasoline Compression Ignition Multi-Cylinder Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Gasoline compression ignition (GCI) is a cost-effective approach to achieving diesel-like efficiencies with low emissions. The fundamental architecture of the two-stroke Achates Power Opposed-Piston (OP) Engine enables GCI ...
