1. Large-eddy simulation on the effects of fuel injection pressure on gasoline spray characteristics
Sammanfattning : Increasing the injection pressure in gasoline direct injection engines has a substantial potential to reduce emissions while maintaining high efficiency in spark ignition engines. Present gasoline injectors operate at pressures of 20 to 30 MPa. LÄS MER
2. Modeling Diesel spray combustion using a Detailed Chemistry Approach
Sammanfattning : The rapid development of computer hardware during the past decade has contributed substantially to advances in almost all branches of science. Computer modeling is being applied to increasingly small physical scales and increasingly large domains, facilitating the generation of advanced phenomenological models and models based on first principles.

3. Sustainable Lubrication and Tribotronics enabled by Ionic Materials
Sammanfattning : Developments in machine design play a crucial role in the global endeavor towards sustainability. The potential for energy conservation and emission reduction has pushed lubrication research to the forefront, with the lubricant considered to be a vital machine component. LÄS MER
4. Perceived Quality of Cars. A Novel Framework and Evaluation Methodology
Sammanfattning : The supremacy of the automotive manufacturers today is no longer driven by them achieving a superior manufacturing quality but increasingly depends on the customer’s quality perception. Average car consumers see a car’s quality as a fancy mixture of design, aesthetics, their own previous experiences and performance characteristics of the vehicle, unlike a combination of mechanical parts, software pieces, advanced materials, cutting-edge manufacturing processes, with technical knowledge, skills and high production volumes – all ingredients involved in the modern car creation.

5. The effects of long chain alcohol blends on engine performance and spray characteristics in CI engines
Sammanfattning : Replacing fossil fuels with alternatives derived from renewable sources is one way of meeting society’s increasing need for mobility while also significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles with internal combustion engines. To facilitate such a replacement, this thesis presents optical spray studies and engine experiments conducted to evaluate the potential of blends of biomass-derived alcohols and vegetable oils to serve as drop-in fuels for compression ignition engines.
