Effects of fuel injection speed on supersonic combustion using separation-resistant struts

Modeling and Control of Combustion Instability Using Fuel Injection

Active control using periodic fuel injection has the potential of suppressing combustion instability without radically changing the engine design or sacrificing performance. In this paper, we carry out a study of optimal model-based control of combustion instability using fuel injection. The model developed is physically based and includes the acoustics, the heat-release dynamics, their couplin...

CFD Investigation into Diesel PCCI Combustion with Optimized Fuel Injection

A multi-pulse injection strategy for premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI) combustion was investigated in a four-valve, direct-injection diesel engine by a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation using KIVA-3V code coupled with detailed chemistry. The effects of fuel splitting proportion, injection timing, spray angles, and injection velocity were examined. The mixing process and fo...

Active control using fuel-injection of time-delay induced combustion instability

Active control using periodic fuel injection has the potential of suppressing combustion instability without radically changing the engine design or sacrificing performance. In this paper, we carry out a study of optimal model-based control of combustion instability using fuel injection.

Simulation of Dual Fuel Combustion of Direct Injection Engine with Variable Natural Gas Premixed Ratio

Nowadays, the major challenge of diesel engines development is simultaneous nitrogen oxides and soot emissions reduction without the thermal efficiency drop. Hence, different combustion concepts should be investigated to reach optimum emission and performance conditions in diesel engines without expensive aftertreatment systems. This paper presents the results of a study on a dual fuel (DF) eng...
