Evaluating a novel gasoline surrogate containing isopentane using a rapid compression machine and an engine
Sandro Gail,Roger Cracknell,Daire Corrigan,Andrea Festa,Varun Shankar,Benoit Poulet,Guy Lovett,Rene Daniel Büttgen,Karl Alexander Heufer,Roberto Mariconti,Matteo Cucchi,Fabio Mortellaro +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative to TPRF is presented with a focus on premium fuel (RON98 EN228), which consists of replacing some or all of isooctane by isopentane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and Experimental Validation of an Adaptive, Piston-Damage-Based Combustion Control System for SI Engines: Part 1—Evaluating Open-Loop Chain Performance
Alessandro Brusa,Nicolò Cavina,Nahuel Rojo,Jacopo Mecagni,Enrico Corti,Vittorio Ravaglioli,Matteo Cucchi,Nicola Silvestri +7 more
TL;DR: This work is focused on the development and validation of a spark advance controller, based on a piston “damage” model and a predictive knock model, which represents an integrated and innovative way to manage both the knock intensity and combustion phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and Experimental Validation of an Adaptive, Piston-Damage-Based Combustion Control System for SI Engines: Part 2—Implementation of Adaptive Strategies
Alessandro Brusa,Nicolò Cavina,Nahuel Rojo,Jacopo Mecagni,Enrico Corti,Davide Moro,Matteo Cucchi,Nicola Silvestri +7 more
TL;DR: This work focuses on the implementation of innovative adaptive strategies and a closed-loop chain in a piston-damage-based combustion controller, which is validated with specific tests defined to verify the robustness and the accuracy of the adaptive strategies.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A Methodology for Modeling the Cat-Heating Transient Phase in a Turbocharged Direct Injection Spark Ignition Engine
Federico Millo,Luciano Rolando,Alessandro Zanelli,Francesco Pulvirenti,Matteo Cucchi,Vincenzo Rossi +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the transient phase of catalyst heating on a high-performance turbocharged spark ignition engine with the aim to accurately predict the exhaust thermal energy available at the catalyst inlet and to provide a "virtual test rig" to assess different design and calibration options.
