The high efficiency of diesel engines, their low operating costs, high durability and reliability have provided them with a leadership role in the heavy-duty vehicle market. Recently, diesel engines also achieved a growing share of the light-duty vehicle market, especially in those areas where fuel costs are high. This trend of growth of the diesel market requires a careful evaluation of the re...

this research uses computational modeling to explore another method to increase diesel engine performance while maintaining low pollutant emission levels. previous studies have shown that injection-rate profiles and injector configurations play important roles on the performance and emissions of particulate and nox in di diesel engines. since the most important engine design parameters, includi...

Original scientific paper The doctoral, thesis: “Expert System for Diagnosis and Optimisation of Marine Diesel Engines” is the result of many years of extensive practical and theoretical work on problems in the field of testing marine diesel engines and incorporating new technology during diagnosis. This work deals with problems of a complex analysis and testing a system of Diesel engine parame...

Homogenous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) is a mode of combustion in IC engines in which premixed fuel and air are ignited spontaneously. There is a belief that HCCI engines have a great potential to improve fuel consumption and reduce NOx emissions. In this study, a single zone, zero dimensional, thermo-kinetic model has been developed and a computer program with MATLAB software is use...

Sharma, Anuj Kalidas MSECE, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, May 2016. Sensing, actuation, and embedded control for a custom SCR nitrogen oxides emissions reduction system. Diesel engines are the main power source for medium and heavy duty on road vehicles. With the rising standards for mileage of vehicles set by the Corporate Average Fuel Economy and the Environmental Protection Agency, d...

The paper presents introduction to the research on possible supplying ship diesel engines with mixtures of diesel oils and vegetable oils or their esters with accounting for ecological aspects – exhaust gas purity. Characteristics of vegetable oils and their esters are compared with those diesel oils. Consequences of their application to diesel engines, mainly for their working process and exha...

New engines are submitted to emission standards that are becoming more and more restrictive. Diesel engines are typically equipped with variable geometry turbo-compressor, exhaust gas recirculation system, high-pressure common rail system and post-treatment devices in order to meet these legislative requirements. Consequently, the control of diesel engines becomes a very difficult task involvin...

Diesel engines are widely used to power trucks, buses, passenger cars, locomotives, and ships. These engines power the heavy equipment that plants and harvests crops, tills soil, clears and reshapes land for roads and buildings, and hauls ores from mines to processing centers. Diesel engines generate electricity as portable power sources, peaking units, and emergency backups when line power is ...
