Extensive usage of automobiles has certain disadvantages and one of them is its negative
effect on environment. Carbon dioxide (CO 2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC) …

The goal of this work is to solve the problem of low thermal efficiency of stoichiometric
natural gas engines by combining the Miller cycle with a high geometric compression ratio …

A single-cylinder, wall-guided, spark ignition direct injection engine was used to study the
impact of engine operating parameters on engine-out particle number (PN) emissions …

Comparisons between dual-fuel combustion and conventional diesel combustion (CDC) are
often performed using different engine hardware setups, exhaust gas recirculation rates, as …

A full-cycle computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation coupled with detailed chemical
kinetics mechanism has been used to investigate the effect of start of injection (SOI) timing …

A Miller cycle and higher geometric compression ratio (GCR) can be adopted to improve the
brake thermal efficiency (BTE) of an engine. The principle of the Miller cycle is to change the …

Biomass is the largest and most important renewable energy option at present. Because of
similar physicochemical properties to gasoline and improved production methods, 2, 5 …

Fuel efficient thermal management of diesel engine aftertreatment is a significant challenge,
particularly during cold start, extended idle, urban driving, and vehicle operation in cold …

Variable compression ratio (VCR) and variable valve timing (VVT) are two effective
strategies to adjust the effective compression ratio, which is beneficial for controlling the …

Previously, the authors have designed and implemented an active motion control “virtual
crankshaft” for a free piston engine, which enables precise piston tracking of desired …
