  1. 1. Empirical combustion modeling in SI engines

    Författare :Fredrik Lindström; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; spark ignited engines; combustion modeling; knock; 1D simulation; Wiebe; divided exhaust period; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis concerns the modeling of spark ignition engine combustion for use in one dimensional simulation tools. Modeling of knock is of particular interest when modeling turbocharged engines since knock usually limits the possible engine output at high load. LÄS MER

  2. 2. On Alternative Fuels for Internal Combustion Engines : A study of biodiesel, gaseous methane and methanol

    Författare :Ludvig Adlercreutz; Andreas Cronhjort; Ola Stenlåås; Magnus Sjöberg; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gaseous methane combustion; spark ignition; single cylinder research engine; particle number; particle emissions; oil ash content; CO2; Green House Gases; engine testing; engine development; emissions; combustion chamber design; injector fouling; environmental impact; road transportation; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning :  This thesis covers some of the environmental impacts of internalcombustion engines running on alternative fuels. The focus of thestudies conveyed is the reduction of greenhouse gases and particleemissions, as these two factors are of great importance for the pathsthat road transportation is facing. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Flow measurements using combustion image velocimetry in diesel engines

    Författare :Henrik Dembinski; Hans-Erik Ångström; Paul Miles; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : This work shows the in-cylinder airflow, and its effects on combustion and emissions, in a modern, heavy-duty diesel engine. The in-cylinder airflow is examined experimentally in an optical engine and the flow field inside the cylinder is quantified and shown during combustion, crank angle resolved. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Experiments on Heat Transfer During Diesel Combustion Using Optical Methods

    Författare :Christian Binder; Andreas Cronhjort; Mattias Richter; Andrew Heyes; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Heat transfer; Internal combustion engines; Phosphor thermometry; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : Transportation is a crucial part of modern societies. This includes their economies. Trade and the transportation of goods have a great influence on prosperity. Nevertheless, the transportation sector with road transport in particular is heavily dependent on fossil fuels and emits a significant amount of greenhouse gases. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Mitigating Knock in Heavy Duty Spark Ignition Engines : Experiments and simulations of diluted ethanol and methanol combustion

    Författare :Senthil Krishnan Mahendar; Anders Christiansen Erlandsson; Christer Spiegelberg; James Szybist; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ethanol; Methanol; Dilution; Spark Ignition; Miller Timing; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : To effectively reduce fossil fuel dependence in the transport sector, an unprecedented increase in renewable fuel production is required. Short chain alcohols, such as ethanol and methanol, are well placed as they can be produced in a variety of renewable pathways from most carbon sources. LÄS MER
