This review covers efforts to optimize combustion in spark ignition and compression ignition
engines using pre-chamber ignition systems, with a focus on the fuel used in the pre …

Providing high ignition energies to low reactivity (hard-to-ignite) fuels in premixed
combustion modes is a challenging task. This is especially true if diluted combustion and …

The optimization of the combustion process in spark ignition engines has led to novel
strategies to ignite lean and low reactivity mixtures, such as the application of turbulent jet …

Diesel engines use diffusion-controlled combustion of a high-reactivity fuel and offer high
efficiencies because they combine lean combustion with a high compression ratio. For low …

The efficiency of spark-ignition engines can be increased by increasing the excess air
dilution using active pre-chambers (PCs), which are characterized by larger inner PC …

An effective way to ignite low-reactivity mixtures in engines is to allocate the ignition source,
usually a sparkplug, inside a pre-chamber (PC); the ignition of the premixed charge in the …

Abstract Spark-induced Breakdown Spectroscopy was used for local fuel-air equivalence
ratio measurements of premixed methane-air mixtures by a discharge from an inductive …

A numerical model is developed to predict the combustion processes in large-bore gas
engines featuring prechamber ignition systems and being coupled with Computational Fluid …

The temporal evolution of the kinematic properties of hydrogen enriched, lean premixed
methane-air flames was studied experimentally in a rapid compression expansion machine …

Lean air-gas mixture combustion systems seem to be very promising solutions for IC
engines in terms of lower emission indexes and higher thermal efficiency, especially in part …
