The increasingly stringent emission regulations, such as US 2010, Tier 2 Bin 5 and beyond,
off-road Tier 4 final, and Euro V/5 for particulate matter (PM) reduction applications, will …

This paper reviews the recent advances in the management of nitrogen oxide (NOx)
emissions from the internal combustion engine of light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles …

The exhaust energy can represent up to 40% of the fuel chemical energy in turbocharged
internal combustion engines. In order to calculate properly the available energy of the …

In this study, the energy, exergy, sustainability, thermoeconomic, exergoeconomic,
environmental and environmental-economic based analyses are applied to the …

The development of highly efficient engines with lower exhaust gas temperatures leads to
new challenges for catalysts in the aftertreatment system. One option for overcoming this is a …

Reactivity controlled compression ignition is a promising combustion strategy due to the
combination of excellent thermal efficiency with ultra-low nitrogen oxides and particulate …

Worldwide emission regulations are driven the efforts of the automotive industry to meet
challenging targets concerning pollution reduction. Nowadays, advances in exhaust …

The increasingly restrictive legislation on pollutant emis-sions is involving new
homologation procedures driven to be representative of real driving emissions. This context …

The implementation of tight vehicle emission standards has forced manufactures to use
aftertreatment systems extensively. In addition to pollutant emissions abatement, these …

In this work, an experimental setup is established to investigate the heat transfer and flow
resistance of wire gauzes. Five woven metal sheets of plain-square type differing in wires …
