Retaining the diesel combustion process but burning primarily natural gas offers diesel-like
efficiencies from a natural-gas fuelled heavy-duty engine. This combustion event is limited …

The use of pilot-ignited, direct-injected natural gas fuelling for heavy-duty on-road
applications has been shown to substantially reduce NOx and particulate matter emissions …

Natural gas is an attractive fuel for internal combustion engines in light of its potential for
reduced greenhouse gas and particulate emissions, and significant reserves. To facilitate …

High-pressure direct-injection (HPDI) in heavy duty engines allows a natural gas (NG)
engine to maintain diesel-like performance while deriving most of its power from NG. A small …

The development of the advanced injection low pilot-ignited natural gas (ALPING)
combustion concept that employs very small diesel pilots (1–5 per cent by energy) to …

Heavy-duty natural gas engines offer air pollution and energy diversity benefits. However,
current homogeneous-charge lean-burn engines suffer from impaired efficiency and high …

The high-pressure direct injection (HPDI) of natural gas permits diesel engines to retain their
performance and high fuel economy while reducing regulated emissions. In the work …

The high-pressure direct injection (HPDI) of natural gas (NG) permits diesel engines to
retain their high fuel economy while reducing regulated emissions. In the work presented in …

To maximize payback for operators, it is important that natural gas engines for heavy-duty on-
road applications minimize fuel consumption. To directly replace a diesel engine for a given …

Stringent environmental policies and the ever-increasing demand for energy have triggered
