Fuel wall impingement commonly occurs in small-bore diesel engines. Particularly during
engine starting, when wall temperatures are low, the evaporation rate of fuel film remaining …

The thermal and chemical state of residual gas is known to influence the likelihood of
autoignition, ignition delay and combustion phasing of the subsequent diesel engine cycle …

The impact of fuel injection pressure on the development of diesel flames has been studied
in a light-duty optical engine. Planer laser-induced fluorescence imaging of fuel (fuel-PLIF) …

This paper presents an experimental investigation conducted to determine the parameters
that control the behavior of autoignition in a small-bore, single-cylinder, optically-accessible …

ABSTRACT Emissions of Unburned Hydrocarbons (UHC) from diesel engines are a
particular concern during the starting process, when after-treatment devices are typically …

The diffusion flame lift-off length of isolated, free diesel jets in quiescent atmospheres is
known to have a strong influence on soot formation by affecting fuel/air mixing prior to …

The performance of dual-fuel engines in terms of fuel conversion efficiency and unburned
hydrocarbon emission is strongly influenced by the turbulent flame propagation through the …

End-of-injection transients have recently been shown to be important for combustion and
emissions outcomes in diesel engines. The objective of this work is to develop an …

Simultaneous high-speed natural luminosity and OH* chemiluminescence imaging is used
to characterize high-temperature ignition processes in conventional diesel combustion with …

The fuel penetration and reacting diesel jet development have been studied in a small-bore
optical engine to better understand a swirl-influenced, wall-interacting diesel flame. The fuel …
