Strategies and methods of RCCI combustion: A review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed previous research activities and recent reviews on RCCI engine performance and emission characteristics with the view to finding information on current RCCi combustion methods and strategies while identifying its shortcomings.

Role of soft-gel substrates on bouncing–merging transition in drop impact on a liquid film

TL;DR: An experimental investigation to assess the role of deformable substrates on bouncing-to-merging transition in droplet impact on the liquid film finds that the Young's modulus of PAAm initially increases with the concentration of crosslinker, and subsequently becomes almost constant due to inhomogeneity of crosslinking.

Improved Chemical Kinetics Numerics for the Efficient Simulation of Advanced Combustion Strategies

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assessed the computational efficiency of a recently developed sparse analytical Jacobian chemistry solver, namely SpeedCHEM, that features both direct and Krylov-subspace solution methods for maximum efficiency for both small and large mechanism sizes.

High Combustion Temperature for the Reduction of Particulate in Diesel Engines

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of temperature T and equivalence ratio Φ on soot formation at high pressures up to 5 MPa were investigated in a diesel engine and the trajectory in relation to both soot and NO formation region gives suggestion of a possibility of high temperature mixture combustion to reduce particulate formation in diesel engines.

Numerical study on the low emission window of homogeneous charge compression ignition diesel combustion

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical study of the low emission window (lower than 10 grams/kg-f CO, 10g/kgf HC, 0.5 grams/ kg-f NO and almost soot-less) of diesel HCCI combustion was performed over wide ranges by changing equivalence ratio, inlet temperature, intake valve closure timing, engine speed and fuel amount.

Investigation of the Roles of Flame Propagation, Turbulent Mixing, and Volumetric Heat Release in Conventional and Low Temperature Diesel Combustion

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-mode combustion model that combines a comprehensive kinetics scheme for volumetric heat release and a level-set-based model for turbulent flame propagation is applied over the range of engine combustion regimes from non-premixed to premixed conditions.
