Predicting the Physical and Chemical Ignition Delays in a Military Diesel Engine Running n Hexadecane Fuel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: There are currently numerous efforts to create renewable fuels that have similar properties to conventional diesel fuels. One major future challenge is evaluating how these new fuels will function in older legacy diesel ...
The Effects of Fuel Injection Pressure and Fuel Type on the Combustion Characteristics of a Diesel Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In an effort to understand the effects of injection system pressure on alternative fuel performance, a singlecylinder diesel engine was outfit with a modern common rail fuel injection system and piezoelectric injector. As ...
An Experimental and Modeling Study Into Using Normal and Isocetane Fuel Blends as a Surrogate for a Hydroprocessed Renewable Diesel Fuel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new hydroprocessed renewable diesel (HRD) fuel comprised both straight chain and branched alkane fuel components. In an effort to find a research surrogate for this fuel, single cylinder engine testing was performed with ...
Startup and Steady State Performance of a New Renewable Hydroprocessed Depolymerized Cellulosic Diesel Fuel in Multiple Diesel Engines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new hydroprocessed depolymerized cellulosic diesel (HDCD) fuel has been developed using a process which takes biomass feedstock (principally cellulosic wood) to produce a synthetic fuel that has nominally آ½ cycloparaffins ...
