Ethanol has been extensively used worldwide as a renewable biofuel to partly substitute
fossil fuels, aiming to reduce pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. However, due to the …

Sustainably produced biofuels, especially when they are derived from lignocellulosic
biomass, are being discussed intensively for future ground transportation. Traditionally …

RCCI (reactivity controlled compression ignition) engines are found to be capable of
achieving higher thermal efficiency and ultra-low NOx and PM emissions. The reactivity …

Low-temperature combustion is an emerging engine technology that has the ability to yield
low NOx and soot emissions while maintaining high fuel efficiency. Low-temperature …

The expanding energy demand, surging oil prices, depleting oil reserves, environmental
pollution and climate change problems associated with the utilization of fossil fuels have …

LTPCI (low temperature premixed compression ignition) strategies are capable of causing
simultaneous reduction in NOx and PM (particulate matter) emissions and increment in HC …

RCCI (reactivity controlled compression ignition) has drawn much attention since it was
proposed, as it could lead to high performance and clean combustion. The original concept …

ABSTRACT A single-cylinder light-duty diesel engine was used to investigate dual fuel
reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) operated with two different fuel …

The paper explores the use of water injection in a turbocharged, direct injection, spark
ignition engines fuelled with ethanol where port injection of water numerically prove to be …

A 3-D numerical simulation platform based on the KIVA4-CHEMKIN code was constructed
by incorporating a newly developed skeletal chemical kinetics mechanism to study the …
