World demand for energy, in general, and for transportation, in particular, is increasing
rapidly. The internal combustion engines, fuelled mostly by petroleum-derived liquid fuels …

This work seeks to characterize the fidelity needed in a gasoline surrogate with the intent to
replicate the complex autoignition behavior exhibited within advanced combustion engines …

To this date, extensive research has been conducted to understand the low-temperature
auto-ignition chemistry of gasoline. The detection of low-temperature chemical reactions …

This study examines fuel auto-ignitability and shows a method for determining fuel
performance for HCCI combustion by doing engine experiments. Previous methods …

Several researchers are investigating strategies to lower the emissions and increase the
efficiency of combustion engines to reduce the negative impact on the environment and the …

The low-temperature combustion (LTC) is an attractive concept that enables the modem
combustion engines to move toward sustainability mainly by increasing the efficiency and …

The blending of ethanol with primary reference fuel (PRF) mixtures comprising n-heptane
and iso-octane is known to exhibit a non-linear octane response; however, the underlying …

The combustion behavior of five full boiling range RON98 gasoline blends was evaluated for
multi-mode operation in a GDI and the CFR octane rating engine. The GDI engine tests were …

A multi-mode operation strategy, wherein an engine operates compression ignited at low
load and sparkignited at high load, is an attractive way to achieve better part-load efficiency …

A new metric for ranking the suitability of fuels in LTC engines was recently introduced,
based on the fraction of potential fuel savings achieved in the FTP-75 light-duty vehicle …
