Premixed charge compression ignition engine with optimal combustion control

TL;DR: In this paper, a premixed charge compression ignition engine, and a control system, is provided which effectively initiates combustion by compression ignition and maintains stable combustion while achieving extremely low nitrous oxide emissions, good overall efficiency and acceptable combustion noise and cylinder pressures.

Demonstrating the Multi Fuel Capability of a Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition Engine with Variable Compression Ratio

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate the multi fuel capability of a homogeneous charge compression Ignition Engine with Variable Compression Ratio (VCR) and demonstrate its multi-fuel capability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fuel design and management for the control of advanced compression-ignition combustion modes

TL;DR: The most prominent characteristic of new combustion modes, such as HCCI, Stratified-charge Compression-Ignition (SCCI), and Low-Temperature Combustion (LTC), is the requirement of creating a homogenous mixture or controllable stratified mixture prior to ignition as discussed by the authors.

Supercharged Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of supercharging on HCCI was investigated and three different fuels were used during the experiments: iso-octane, ethanol and natural gas, and two different compression ratios were used, 17:1 and 19:1.
