Improvement of gasoline combustion efficiency and its emission reduction are the hot theses
of the gasoline components and its surrogate fuels. In this paper, the mechanism and …

It is generally accepted that the real petroleum fuels are composed of many various
hydrocarbon components. The various gasoline surrogate fuels are typically employed in …

Numerical study of energetic and emission characteristics of HCCI engine operating on iso-
octane based fuel blends comprising hydrogen or syngas as additives is conducted on the …

Increases in both chemical kinetics knowledge and the capacity of computers have led to the
availability of very large detailed kinetic mechanisms for many problems. These …

For CFD-simulations, superposed with combustion phenomena, simplified reaction models
are needed to reduce calculation times. In the present study, a global kinetic model for …

The main limiting factor for the efficiency of spark ignition engines is knock, caused by the
auto-ignition of the unburned mixture in front of the flame. The use of alternative renewable …

A reduced chemical mechanism for primary reference fuels (PRFs) and their mixtures has
been developed to investigate the homogeneous charge combustion ignition (HCCI) …

Molecular dynamics simulations are applied to model fuel droplet surrounded by air in a
spatially and temporally evolving environment. A numerical procedure is developed to …

Knock is often the main limiting factor for brake efficiency in spark ignition engines and is
mostly attributed to auto-ignition of the unburned mixture in front of the flame. In order to …

Downsizing by turbo charging is a current approach for the reduction of fuel consumption of
Spark Ignition (SI) engines. For downsized engines compression ratio has to be set as high …
