Petroleum-derived gasoline is currently the most widely used fuel for transportation
propulsion. The design and operation of gasoline fuels is governed by specific physical and …

Biofuels have grabbed the attention of engine researchers ever since the oil-crisis and
escalating costs of petro-chemicals cropped up in the׳ 70s. Ethanol and methanol were the …

Methanol is a widely used engine fuel, blend component, and additive. However, no
systematic auto-ignition data or laminar flame speed measurements are available for kinetic …

Alternative transportation fuels, preferably from renewable sources, include alcohols with up
to five or even more carbon atoms. They are considered promising because they can be …

The fundamental combustion and emissions properties of advanced biofuels are reviewed,
and their impact on engine performance is discussed, in order to guide the selection of …

Rapid compression machines (RCMs) are widely used to acquire experimental insights into
fuel autoignition and pollutant formation chemistry, especially at conditions relevant to …

Rapid compression machines (RCMs) are used to simulate a single compression stroke of
an internal combustion engine without some of the complicated swirl bowl geometry, cycle …

Ammonia has been essential to human activities for centuries. It is widely used as feedstock
for fertilizers, industrial chemicals, and emission after-treatment systems. Owing to its …

Ongoing progress in synthetic biology, metabolic engineering, and catalysis continues to
produce a diverse array of advanced biofuels with complex molecular structure and …

In this study, effects of i-amyl alcohol/gasoline fuel blends on spark ignition (SI) engine
performance and emissions were investigated experimentally, predicted by Artificial Neural …
