  1. 21. Optimizing surface texture for combustion engine cylinder liners

    Författare :Andrew Spencer; Michel Cervantes; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Sammanfattning : The Piston Ring - Cylinder Liner (PRCL) contact is the single largest contributor to frictional losses in an internal combustion (IC) engine, causing 20-40% of all mechanical losses. If these mechanical losses can be reduced by 10% then vehicle fuel efficiency could be increased by approximately 1.5-2.5%. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Combustion in PPC and Diesel Engines

    Författare :Rickard Solsjö; Strömningsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; large eddy simulation LES ; turbulent spray combustion; Lagrangian particle tracking LPT ; diesel engines; partially premixed combustion PPC engines.;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with large eddy simulations (LES) of turbulent combustion processes in direct injection internal combustion (IC) engines. Modeling of direct injection IC engine combustion involves modeling of turbulent spray/gas two-phase flow, modeling of chemical reactions of large hydrocarbon fuels and coupling of chemistry with turbulent flows.

  4. 23. Comparative study of residue pellets from cane sugar and palm-oil industries with commercial wood pellets, applied in downdraft gasification

    Författare :Catharina Erlich; Torsten Fransson; Björn Zethraeus; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy engineering; Mechanical and thermal engineering; Mekanisk och termisk energiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : While biomass utilization for energy conversion in the industrialized nations is being largely developed, highly efficient and environmentally friendly, many tropical countries still use biomass at low efficiencies and high emission levels. The main reasons for these gaps are both political and technological: the energy markets are different, the Gross National Product (GDP) differs widely, and the feedstock differs in form and conversion behaviour.

  5. 24. Towards High Efficiency Powertrains

    Författare :Jayesh Khatri; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hybrid powertrain; water injection; Downsized spark-ignition engines; RON; efficient engine starts; knock mitigation; warm engine starts;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years there has been a great shift whereby conventional vehicles powered by an internal combustion (IC) engine are being partially or completely replaced by electrified alternatives; almost all major automotive manufacturers have made statements indicating a shift towards electrification. This shift has been driven in large part by concerns about climate change, which have prompted lawmakers to introduce increasingly strict regulations limiting vehicular emissions, particularly of carbon dioxide (CO2).
