The hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engine : a technical review.
TL;DR: In this article, a review is given of contemporary research on the hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engine and the emphasis is on light-to medium-duty engine research, where it is shown that due to low volumetric efficiencies and frequent preignition combustion events, the power densities of premixed or port-fuel-injected hydrogen engines are diminished relative to gasoline-powered engines.

Soot processes in compression ignition engines
Dale R. Tree,Kenth I. Svensson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a conceptual model based on in-cylinder soot and combustion measurements was used to explain the trends seen in exhaust particulate emissions and showed that diesel engine emissions control involves multi-injection combustion strategies which are transforming the picture of diesel combustion rapidly into a series of low temperature, stratified charge, premixed combustion events where NO x formation is avoided by leaning the mixture or increasing air entrainment prior to ignition.

Toward accommodating realistic fuel chemistry in large-scale computations
Tianfeng Lu,Chung K. Law +1 more
TL;DR: The need and prospect of incorporating realistic fuel chemistry in large-scale simulations of combustion phenomena and combustor performance are reviewed in this paper, where skeletal reduction especially through directed relation graph, time-scale reduction based on the concepts of quasi-steady species enabled through computational singular perturbation, the lumping of isomers and of species with similar diffusivities; on-the-fly stiffness removal; the relative merits of implicit versus explicit solvers; and computation cost minimization achieved through tabulation and the judicious re-sequencing of the computational steps in arithmetic evaluations.
