The furan series of chemicals such as 2, 5-dimethylfuran (DMF) and 2-methylfuran (MF) are
promising alternative fuel candidates for internal combustion engines due to their …

An experimental investigation has been performed on the potential of the Atkinson cycle and
reducing intake oxygen concentration for pollutant control in a heavy-duty diesel engine. In …

High-speed imaging, spectroscopy and thermodynamical characterization are applied to an
optically accessible, heavy-duty diesel engine in order to compare sooting and …

A study of in-cylinder fuel–air mixing distributions in a firing gasoline-direct-injection engine
is reported using planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) imaging. A multi-component fuel …

Nitric oxide (NO) is an atmospheric pollutant responsible for the destruction of the ozone
layer and the creation of photochemical smog. As a result, NOx emissions from combustion …

This paper presents local experimental in-cylinder concentrations of nitric oxide, obtained by
laser-induced fluorescence measurements in a heavy-duty diesel engine. Quantitative …

The present work reports quantitative planar imaging of Nitric Oxide (NO) concentration in a
dilute spray flame at atmospheric pressure, contributing to CORIA Rouen Spray Burner …

Cycle-to-cycle variations in combustion have been observed in diesel engines when
operating under long ignition delay conditions. In this work, cyclic variations of NO emissions …

Quantitative spatially resolved measurements of temperature and species are lacking
particularly in the core of combusting diesel jets. Major problems are light attenuation and …

Climate change, environmental problems, urban pollution, and the dependence on fossil
fuels demand cleaner, renewable energy strategies. However, they also ask for urgent …
