Knocking combustion in spark-ignition engines

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided deep insights into the processes occurring during knocking combustion in spark ignition engines, and future research directions, such as turbulence-shock-reaction interaction theory, detonation suppression and utilization, and super-knock solutions, are also discussed, including use of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), injection strategy, and the integration of a high tumble - high EGR-Atkinson/Miller cycle.

The Impact of Ethanol Fuel Blends on PM Emissions from a Light-Duty GDI Vehicle

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of ethanol on particulate matter (PM) emissions from gasoline direct injection (GDI) vehicles was explored and two engine calibrations were examined to gauge the robustness of the results.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effect of Compression Ratio, Fuel Octane Rating, and Ethanol Content on Spark-Ignition Engine Efficiency

TL;DR: An empirical calculation method is provided that allows estimation of expected vehicle efficiency, volumetric fuel economy, and CO2 emission benefits for future LDVs through higher compression ratios for different assumptions on fuel properties and engine types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Particulate matter indices using fuel smoke point for vehicle emissions with gasoline, ethanol blends, and butanol blends

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the use of experimental smoke point measurements and various fuel volatility metrics to better characterize these effects, including branching, degree of saturation, carbon chain length, and oxygenate functional group effects.

KIVA-3V: A Block-Structured KIVA Program for Engines with Vertical or Canted Valves

A.A. Amsden
TL;DR: KIVA-3V as discussed by the authors is an extended version of KIVA3 that can model any number of vertical or canted valves in the cylinder head of an internal combustion (IC) engine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kiva-4

TL;DR: The KIVA family of codes was developed to simulate the thermal and fluid processes taking place inside an internal combustion engine and the numerics have been generalized to unstructrured meshes, which facilitates grid construction in complicated geometries and affords a higher degree of flexibility.

Development of V-6 3.5-liter Engine Adopting New Direct Injection System

TL;DR: In this paper, a new V-6 3.5-liter gasoline engine (2GR-FSE) uses a newly developed stoichiometric direct injection system with two fuel injectors in each cylinder (D-4S: Direct injection 4-stroke gasoline engine system Superior version).
