Government regulations on vehicle tailpipe emissions have steadily become more stringent
in the last few decades, mainly to reduce gaseous and particulate pollutants from internal …

The “curse of dimensionality” has limited the applicability and expansion of tabulated
combustion models. While the tabulated flamelet model and other multi-dimensional …

In a collaborative effort to identify key aspects of heavy-duty diesel injector behavior, the
Engine Combustion Network (ECN) Spray C and Spray D injectors were characterized in …

Experimental and numerical studies on the soot characteristics of Spray A flames were
conducted with a focus on the effects of different split injection strategies in high-pressure …

The Engine Combustion Network (ECN) spray A under diesel engine conditions is
investigated with a non-adiabatic 5D Flamelet Generated Manifolds (FGM) model with the …

Simulation of turbulent mixing and combustion at supercritical pressures requires the use of
a real-fluid equation of state (EOS) to represent the nonideal, nonlinear thermodynamic …

Supersonic combustion is characterized by spatial and temporal pressure gradients coupled
with stiff chemical kinetics. Tabulated combustion models can significantly lower computa …

Oxymethylene ethers (OME n, n= 1–6) are a class of synthetic liquid fuels that carry a great
potential to reduce carbon dioxides (CO 2) and particle matter emissions. However, the …

The use of fuels made from renewable resources can be beneficial in reducing the CO 2
emission balance of the existing vehicle fleet. These fuels should be drop-in-capable, ie …

This study presents a detailed methodology to verify and correct the chemical consistency of
any reaction model based on collision limit violations (CLV) analyses, thermochemical data …
