Spark ignition gasoline vehicles comprise most light duty vehicles worldwide. These
vehicles were not historically associated with PM emissions. This changed about 15 years …

The ever more stringent vehicle emissions rules are leading gasoline engine research and
development toward the use of direct injection systems. This technology is already present …

Understanding of plume direction and mixture quality in a combustion chamber is crucial to
improve engine performance. While a variety of diagnostics using laser and x-ray facilities …

This work features a numerical study of the spray collapse process that occurs under flash-
boiling, gasoline-direct-injection conditions. The Engine Combustion Network's Spray G …

Internal flow is closely related to energy consumption and emissions because of its
dominant role in the atomization process. The intricate three-phase flow patterns in an orifice …

This paper presents an approach that uses Large Eddy Simulation under the Eulerian–
Lagrangian framework to model the gasoline direct-injection (GDI) spray from Engine …

The injection and atomization of gasoline fuels are critical to the performance of gasoline
direct injection engines. Due to the complex nature of the primary breakup of the liquid jet in …

Flash-boiling of fuel sprays occurs when a super-heated fuel is discharged into an
environment whose pressure is lower than the saturation pressure of the fuel and can …

Flash boiling sprays have been widely studied recently because of its potential in generating
fuel sprays with improved atomization efficiencies. Due to the strong multiphase influence …

A detailed prediction of injection and air–fuel mixing is fundamental in modern direct
injection, spark-ignition engines to guarantee a stable and efficient combustion process and …
