In this study, MIE values measured with two different explosion tubes, HARTMANN and MIKE 3, are compared. Generally, MIKE 3 apparatus provides MIE results, which are equal or lower to those measured with the HARTMANN apparatus; this is particularly true for the energy ranges between 1 and 10mJ and higher than 100mJ. Differences observed can modify samples classification according to their sensi...

Abstract In the context of CO2 challenge, oxy-fuel combustion in internal engines (OFC-ICE) arises as a promising technology for carbon capture and almost zero-NOx solutions. Although literature shows some experimental theoretical works on OFC-ICE, there is lack systematic studies dealing with dilution strategies or where non-synthetic EGR used. Using combination 0D-1D CFD modeling measurements...

nowadays, increased attention has been focused on internal combustion engine fuels. regarding environmental effects of internal combustion engines particularly as sources of pollution and depletion of fossil fuels, compressed natural gas has been introduced as an alternative to gasoline and diesel fuels in many applications. a high research octane number which allows combustion at higher compre...
