Homogeneous charge compression ignition combustion: Advantages over compression ignition combustion, challenges and solutions

TL;DR: The homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine as mentioned in this paper uses a relatively new mode of combustion technology, and the combustion auto-ignites in multiple spots once the mixture has reached its chemical activation energy.

Experimental study of the dynamics and structure of self-sustaining premixed cool flames using a counterflow burner

TL;DR: In this paper, self-sustaining premixed cool flames are successfully stabilized in a dimethyl ether/oxygen counterflow burner through ozone addition, creating a new platform for the quantitative measurement of cool flame extinction limits, ignition limits, and structure as well as validation of low-temperature chemical kinetic models.

A Comprehensive Modeling Study of n-Heptane Oxidation

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed chemical kinetic mechanism has been developed and used to study the oxidation of n-heptane in flow reactors, shock tubes, and rapid compression machines, where the initial pressure ranged from 1-42 atm, the temperature from 550-1700 K, the equivalence ratio from 0.3-1.5, and nitrogen-argon dilution from 70-99%.

A Conceptual Model of DI Diesel Combustion Based on Laser-Sheet Imaging*

John E. Dec
- 24 Feb 1997 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a phenomenological description of how direct-injection (DI) diesel combustion occurs has been derived from laser-sheet imaging and other recent optical data, which is summarized in a series of idealized schematics that depict the combustion process for a typical, modern-diesel-engine condition.
