Evaluation of comparative engine combustion, performance and emission characteristics of low temperature combustion (PCCI and RCCI) modes
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative investigation of engine combustion, performance and emission characteristics of low temperature combustion modes namely premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI) and reactivity controlled compression ignition with conventional compression ignition combustion mode was performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tribological studies of epoxy composites with solid and liquid fillers
TL;DR: In this article, the tribological properties of epoxy composites with filler materials such as graphene, graphite, and liquid lubricants (base-oil SN150 and perfluoropolyether) are studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gaseous emissions (regulated and unregulated) and particulate characteristics of a medium-duty CRDI transportation diesel engine fueled with diesel-alcohol blends
TL;DR: In this paper, different diesel-alcohol (methanol, ethanol, and butanol) blends termed as "diesohols" were used to investigate the performance and emission characteristics of a modern common rail direct injection (CRDI) transportation diesel engine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptation of Methanol–Dodecanol–Diesel Blend in Diesel Genset Engine
Avinash Kumar Agarwal,Nikhil Sharma,Akhilendra Pratap Singh,Vikram Kumar,Dev Prakash Satsangi,Chetankumar Patel +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a single-cylinder engine fueled with MD10 and MD15 was compared with baseline mineral diesel using a fuel additive (1-dodecanol), and the results indicated that methanol blending with mineral diesel resulted in superior combustion, performance, emissions, and particulate characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigations of mineral diesel/methanol-fueled reactivity controlled compression ignition engine operated at variable engine loads and premixed ratios:
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the major concerns for the road transport sector globally, which has motivated researchers to explore advanced combustion technologies, such as fuel cells and fuel injectors.
