The adverse environmental impact of fossil fuel combustion in engines has motivated
research towards using alternative low-carbon fuels. In recent years, there has been an …

Petroleum resources are finite and, therefore, search for their alternative non-petroleum
fuels for internal combustion engines is continuing all over the world. Moreover gases …

Towards the effort of reducing pollutant emissions, especially soot and nitrogen oxides, from
direct injection Diesel engines, engineers have proposed various solutions, one of which is …

In the effort to reduce pollutant emissions from diesel engines various solutions have been
proposed, one of which is the use of natural gas as supplement to liquid diesel fuel, with …

Analytical functions approximating the burn rate in internal combustion engines are useful
and cost-effective tools for engine cycle simulations. Most functions proposed to date are …

This book explains the benefits and challenges associated with internal combustion,
compression ignition, gas-fueled, and premixed dual-fuel engines. It explores methane and …

Among the different efforts towards the reduction in pollutant emissions from direct injection
(DI) diesel engines, the use of gaseous fuels as a partial supplement for diesel fuel has …

During the last years a great effort has been made to reduce pollutant emissions from direct
injection (DI) diesel engines. Towards this, engineers have proposed various solutions, one …

In the dual fuel engine much of the energy release comes from the combustion of the
gaseous fuel while only a small amount of diesel liquid fuel provides ignition through timed …

Coal, still used to generate more than half of the electric power in the US, will likely be part of
any future global energy plan. But this finite resource is also responsible for 80 percent of …
