Soot Modeling in Diesel Engine

This paper presents an advanced version of the original software developed by the author in order to simulate the combustion in the Diesel engines, focusing on simulate soot formation. Complex kinetic mechanisms are need for realistic modeling of shoot formations, but this is applicable only for simple flame computations (e.g. one dimensional, laminar, etc.). For real turbulent flame calculatio...

Free-Piston Diesel Engine Dynamics and Control

Free-piston diesel engines are characterized by freely moving pistons without any rigid crankshaft or camshaft connected to the pistons. This allows a highly compact and e cient engine design, but requires automatic control of the piston motion. This paper present a dynamic mathematical model of a free-piston diesel engine, a control oriented dynamic analysis, and a novel computer-based piston ...

Ecological Impacts of Diesel Engine Emissions

This article deals with the ecological impacts of chemical substances that are found in the structure of Diesel engine exhaust gases and provides an overview of legislation that limits their maximum allowable emissions. Special consideration is given to the previously mostly neglected negative impact of particulate matter compared to the impact of carbon dioxide. Negative impact of particulates...

First Law Analysis of Diesel Engine Performance Using Diesel and Bio-diesel Fuel

In this study, the performance of a single cylinder four stroke direct injection (DI) diesel engine is analyzed in the light of first law of thermodynamics. An energy balance study is carried out to quantify the various losses associated with diesel engine processes on the basis of experimental performance and emission data. The engine was fuelled with normal diesel and Jatropha Methyl Ester (J...
