Axel O. zur Loye,Omowoleola C. Columbus Akinyemi,Russ P. Durrett,Patrick F. Flynn,Gary L. Hunter,Greg A. Moore,Jackie M. Mudd,George G. Muntean,Julie A. Wagner,John F. Wright +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a premixed charge compression ignition engine, and a control system, is provided which effectively initiates combustion by compression ignition and maintains stable combustion while achieving extremely low nitrous oxide emissions, good overall efficiency and acceptable combustion noise and cylinder pressures.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Diesel combustion: an integrated view combining laser diagnostics, chemical kinetics, and empirical validation
Patrick F. Flynn,Russell P. Durrett,Gary L. Hunter,Axel O. zur Loye,Omowoleola C. Columbus Akinyemi,John E. Dec,Charles K. Westbrook +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a structure for the diesel combustion process based on a combination of previously published and new results is proposed, which is validated with data from production-like direct injection diesel engines.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Detailed Chemical Kinetic Modeling of Diesel Combustion with Oxygenated Fuels
Henry J. Curran,Elizabeth M. Fisher,Pierre-Alexandre Glaude,Nick M. Marinov,William J. Pitz,Charles K. Westbrook,David W. Layton,Patrick F. Flynn,Russ P Columbus Durrett,A. O. zur Loye,Omowoleola C. Columbus Akinyemi,Frederick L. Dryer +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of oxygenated hydrocarbons as additives to diesel fuels on ignition, NOx emissions and soot production has been examined using a detailed chemical kinetic reaction mechanism.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Minimum Engine Flame Temperature Impacts on Diesel and Spark-Ignition Engine NOx Production
Journal ArticleDOI
The inevitability of engine-out NOx emissions from spark-ignited and diesel engines
Patrick F. Flynn,Gary L. Hunter,L. Farrel,Russ P Columbus Durrett,Omowoleola C. Columbus Akinyemi,A. O. zur Loye,Charles K. Westbrook,William J. Pitz +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a combined experimental and modeling study of product gas temperatures in engine combustion and their influence on emission levels is presented, which is the principal cause for the large temperature dependence of the extended Zeldovich NO{sub x} mechanism.
