in this study the performance and emissions characteristics of a heavy-duty, direct injection, compression ignition (ci) engine which is specialized in agriculture, have been investigated experimentally. for this aim, the influence of injection timing, load, engine speed on power, brake specific fuel consumption (bsfc), peak pressure (pp), nitrogen oxides (nox), carbon dioxide (co2), carbon mon...

nowadays, due to the increasing power of diesel engines, especially heavy duty diesel engines, and increasing gas pressure inside the combustion chamber, the forces acting on the engine bearings have dramatically raised. on the other hand, becaus eof the competition in the market, it is necessary to increase the engine bearing life and reduce its failure as much as possible. the engine bearings...

in this study, the mf285 tractor engine vibrations resulting from the use of different combinations of biodiesel, bioethanol and diesel as fuel were studied. engine vibrations in three directions and three engine speeds: 1000, 1600 rpm 2000 and ten fuel level was measured. to investigate the influence of measured parameters on engine vibration of factorial design in a randomized complete block ...

in this paper, the amount of wasted heat from different parts of a 12 liter compression ignition engine and their potential for waste heat recovery were investigated. then, two-stage configuration of organic rankine cycle was introduced for simultaneous heat recovery from exhaust gases and coolant. finally, parameters like hybrid generated power, engine thermal efficiency and brake specific fue...

In Scania’s single speed engines for industrial and marine use, the engine speed is controlled by a PI-controller. This controller is tuned independent of engine type and application. This brings certain disadvantages since the engines are used in a wide range of applications where the dynamics may differ. In this thesis, the possibility to tune the controller automatically for a specific engin...

A reverse driving control method for hydrostatic double-drum vibratory rollers is devised in this paper. Based on the analysis of dynamic characteristics of stopping process, the relationship equation between engine speed and pump displacement is established. To restrict the peak value of engine overspeed within the allowable region, an offline parameter determination approach complied with the...

We present a novel hierarchical modular decision engine for lung nodule detection from CT images implemented by Artificial Neural Networks. The proposed Computer Aided Detection (CAD) technique encompasses several desirable properties such as mimicking physicians by means of geometric multi-perspective analysis, computational efficiency, and most importantly archiving high performance in detect...

in order to comply with stringent pollutant emissions regulations, a detailed analysis of the engine combustion and emission is required. in this field, computational tools like cfd and engine cycle simulation play a fundamental role. therefore, the goal of the present work is to simulate a high speed di diesel engine and study the combustion and major diesel engine emissions with more details,...
