Varying Ignition Quality of a Fuel for a HCCI Engine Using a Photochemically-Controlled Additive: The Development of a ‘Smart’ Fuel
TL;DR: In this paper, a photo-chemical "smart" fuel additive was used to significantly change the ignition quality of a fuel in HCCI mode combustion and demonstrated the concept of on-board "smart fuel" applications for ICE.
Optimization and Experimental Research of Combustion of Direct-injection Diesel Engine
TL;DR: In order to improve the performance of the diesel engine, the fuel injection advance angle of original engine is optimized, and a new advance angle for fuel injection is proposed in this paper, which greatly improves the diesel combustion and emission performance.

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
Sungwook Park,Rolf D. Reitz +1 more
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
Sage L. Kokjohn,Rolf D. Reitz +1 more
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.
