Knocking combustion research is crucially important because it determines engine
durability, fuel consumption, and power density, as well as noise and emission performance …

The fundamental combustion and emissions properties of advanced biofuels are reviewed,
and their impact on engine performance is discussed, in order to guide the selection of …

Even in the laminar regime, lean H 2-air flames are prone to intrinsic Thermo-Diffusive (TD)
instabilities which contribute to flame acceleration. Applying the Thickened Flame (TF) …

Model error estimation remains one of the key challenges in uncertainty quantification and
predictive science. For computational models of complex physical systems, model error, also …

This paper presents a new experimental and Large Eddy Simulation (LES) database to
study upscaling effects in vented gas explosions. The propagation of premixed flames in …

In this study, knock during HCCI (homogeneous charge compression ignition) was studied
based on LES (large eddy simulation) with methanol chemical kinetics (84-reaction, 21 …

A hybrid approach is proposed to develop reduced kinetic models for complex engine-
relevant fuels. The reduced mechanism is composed of a core submechanism including C 0 …

Fuel-lean or diluted combustion is widely used in advanced internal combustion engines
(ICEs) such as homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines, low temperature …

Abstract Large Eddy Simulation of knocking in piston engines requires high-fidelity physical
models and numerical techniques. The need to capture temperature fields with high …

Hydrogen engines with zero-carbon emissions have recently drawn attention while they
often suffer from pre-ignition and knocking issues. It is generally understood that knocking …
