A combination of a fuel injector with staggered nozzle hole arrangement with a combustion
chamber divided into upper and lower layers by placing a lip at the middle of the side wall is …

The durability of thermal barrier coatings for reciprocating internal combustion engine
applications was investigated using a coupled, unsteady fracture-based thermomechanics …

A comprehensive investigation was carried out to understand diesel spray combustion
processes and heat transfer by applying multiple injection strategies. Experiments were …

Simultaneous measurements of global engine heat transfer and subsurface piston
temperatures were utilized to evaluate the potential of an extended duration combustion …

A new temporally resolved spatially averaged heat transfer correlation was developed using
the local piston heat flux data presented in the first part of this paper. The new correlation …

Five different commercially available high-temperature martensitic steels were evaluated for
use in a heavy-duty diesel engine piston application and compared to existing piston alloys …

An analytical mechanics model was employed to predict the delamination of several thermal-
barriercoated pistons that had been previously tested in a high-output, single-cylinder diesel …

Heat transfer between combustion gases and walls is one of the most important phenomena
for internal combustion engines; however, its mechanisms have not yet been elucidated …

Fatigue analysis of pistons is reliant on an accurate representation of the high temperatures
to which they are exposed. It can be difficult to represent this accurately, because …

Understanding the transient heat transfer mechanism of impinging flames is a crucial
pathway for further improving the thermal efficiency of already efficient compression ignition …
