Modern engine developments result in very different gas pressure-temperature histories to
those in RON/MON determination tests and strain the usefulness of those knock scales and …

The separate use of gasoline or natural gas (NG) in engines has some advantages and
disadvantages, which make it difficult to choose one over the other. It seems that using a …

Turbulent burning rates were measured in an spark-ignition engine with extensive optical
access for a fairly wide range of operating conditions. Skip-fired operation was employed to …

The work was concerned with experimental study of the turbulent flame development
process of ethanol and butanol fuels in an optically accessed spark ignition research …

The current research experimentally studied flame speed and stretch under engine in-
cylinder conditions. A direct-injection, spark-ignition, and optically accessible engine was …

This work is concerned with the analysis of different charge dilution strategies employed with
the intention of inhibiting knock in a high output turbocharged gasoline engine. The dilution …

The need for improving the efficiency and reducing emissions is a constant challenge in
combustion engine design. For spark ignition engines, these challenges have been targeted …

ABSTRACT A holistic modelling approach has been employed to predict combustion, cyclic
variability and knock propensity of a turbocharged downsized SI engine fuelled with …

The spark ignition engine is one of the most widely used power sources for vehicles. Due to
the global warming, the fuel economy is encouraged to contribute in designing spark ignition …

The ever-changing demands from consumers for more fuel efficient vehicles necessitates
automotive manufacturers developing ever more radical proposals for engine design. The …
