Diesel Engine Control with Exhaust Aftertreatment Constraints

Exhaust Measurement and Emission Control – Biodiesel Involvement in Diesel Engine

This research focusing the performance and emission characteristics study on the application of biofuel emulsions as alternate fuel used Kirloskar AV1 Direct Injection Diesel engine. Diesel engine performance was compared using different fuels, namely Diesel, Jatropha Methyl Ester and Jatropha Methyl Ester Wood Pyrolysis Oil emulsion, by applying various loads. Emission characteristics were obs...

Analysis of Heavy Duty turbocharged Diesel engine response under cold transient operation with a pre-turbo aftertreatment exhaust manifold configuration

Diesel particulate filters are the most useful technology to reduce particulate matter from the exhaust gas of internal combustion engines. Although these devices have suffered an intense development in terms of the management of filtration and regeneration, the effect of the system location on the engine performance is still a key issue that needs to be properly addressed. The present work is ...

Neural Modeling and Control of Diesel Engine with Pollution Constraints

PSFC/JA-02-30 Onboard Plasmatron Generation of Hydrogen Rich Gas for Diesel Engine Exhaust Aftertreatment and Other Applications

Diesel plasmatron reformer technology can provide substantial throughputs without the need of using a catalyst The use of the special plasma facilitates robust noncatalytic conversion of diesel fuel into hydrogen rich gas with hydrogen yields that could be sufficient for NOx trap regeneration applications. Higher yields can be obtained with the use of a catalyst. Plasmatron reformers could also...

Mutagenicity of diesel exhaust particles from an engine with differing exhaust after treatments.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of engine operating conditions and exhaust aftertreatments on the mutagenicity of diesel particulate matter (DPM) collected directly in an underground mine environment. A number of after-treatment devices are currently used on diesel engines in mines, but it is critical to determine whether reductions in DPM concentrations result in a correspo...
