Mechanisms of spray formation and combustion from a multi-hole injector with E85 and gasoline

TL;DR: In this paper, spray formation and combustion characteristics of gasoline and E85 (85% ethanol, 15% gasoline) have been investigated using a multi-hole injector with asymmetric nozzle-hole arrangement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterisation of flame development with ethanol, butanol, iso-octane, gasoline and methane in a direct-injection spark-ignition engine

TL;DR: In this article, an optical study of combustion in a direct-injection spark-ignition research engine with gasoline, iso-octane, ethanol and butanol fuels injected from a centrally located multi-hole injector is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of fuel temperature on in-nozzle cavitation and spray formation of liquid hydrocarbons and alcohols from a real-size optical injector for direct-injection spark-ignition engines

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of fuel properties, temperature and pressure conditions on the extent of cavitation, flash-boiling and, subsequently, spray formation were investigated using real-size transparent nozzles, replica of an injector from a modern direct-injection spark-ignition combustion system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cavitation, primary break-up and flash boiling of gasoline, iso-octane and n-pentane with a real-size optical direct-injection nozzle

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of fuel properties, temperature and pressure conditions on the extent of cavitation, flash boiling and, subsequently, primary break-up were investigated using real-size transparent nozzle of a gasoline injector from a modern direct-injection combustion system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characteristics of Ethanol, Butanol, Iso-Octane and Gasoline Sprays and Combustion from a Multi-Hole Injector in a DISI Engine

TL;DR: In this paper, a single-cylinder direct-injection spark-ignition engine with a centrally mounted multi-hole injector was investigated, and the effects of butanol and ethanol on the performance of the engine were investigated at engine coolant temperatures of 20 °C and 90 °C.
