Evolution, challenges and path forward for low temperature combustion engines
TL;DR: Low temperature combustion (LTC) is an advanced combustion concept for internal combustion (IC) engines, which has attracted global attention in recent years as discussed by the authors, which offers prominent benefits in terms of simultaneous reduction of both oxides of nitrogen (NO x ) and particulate matter (PM), in addition to reduction in specific fuel consumption (SFC).

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

Oxidation of carbon between 1000–2000°c
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the pyro graphite reaction curve reaches a maximum at a temperature of about 1100°C, which is 600°C less than the temperature at which the maximum rate with pyrographite at a pressure of 0.2 atm was observed, and the theory of Blyholder, Binford and Eyring, slightly modified, was shown satisfactorily for this difference between low and high pressure results.
