In development of Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engines, simultaneous control of combustion phasing and power output has been a major challenge. In this study, a new strategy is developed to control the engine power output and combustion phasing at any desired operating condition. A single zone thermodynamic model coupled to a full kinetic mechanism of Primary Reference Fuels (...

the hcci combustion process is initiated due to auto-ignition of fuel/air mixture which is dominated by chemical kinetics and therefore fuel composition has a significant effect on engine operation and a detailed reaction mechanism is essential to analysis hcci combustion. a single zone-model permits to have a detailed chemical kinetics modeling for practical fuels. in this study a single-zone ...

A theoretical study analyzing three-dimensional combustion acoustic instabilities in a liquid propellant rocket engine combustor has been conducted. A linear theory based on Crocco’s pressure sensitive time lag model is used. To apply this theory the combustor is divided into two main components, including the combustion chamber and the converging part of the nozzle. The assumption of concentra...

The present work presents the comparative simulation of a diesel engine fuelled on diesel fuel and biodiesel fuel. Two models, based on tabulated chemistry, were implemented for the simulation purpose and results were compared with experimental data obtained from a single cylinder diesel engine. The first model is a single zone model based on the Krieger and Bormann combustion model while the s...

the premixed counterflow flames propagation in combustion of mixture which is a uniform mixture of fuel particles and air is analytically studied. this analysis framework is based on thermal-diffusion model with assumption that the lewis number is unit and the strain rate is constant. velocity profile is assumed as a function of one variable like x. the structure of the flame is presumed to con...

diesel engine emission standards are being more stringent as it gains more publicity in industry and transportation. hence, designers have to suggest new controlling strategies which result in small amounts of emissions and a reasonable fuel economy. to achieve such a target, multi-objective optimization methodology is a good approach inasmuch as several types of objective are minimized or maxi...
