Dual fuel conversion of a direct-injection diesel engine
Dual fuel pilot-injected diesel natural gas engines offer significant potential to reduce oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and particulate matter (PK emissions while maintaining diesel-like efficiency. A 1994 Navistar T444E turbocharger V-8 diesel engine was converted to dual fuel diesel and compressed …

CFD investigation on hydrogen enrichment effect to dual-fuel direct injection diesel engine
The engine as an integral and most important part of the vehicle which the mechanical power used in moving the automobile. Compression Ignition (CI) engines are use in driving heavy duty machines and power generation plants due to the 40% higher efficiency and torque compared to the Spark Ignition …

Rural electrification from local resources : biomass pyrolysis oil combustion in a direct injection diesel engine
… renewable fuels. Combustion of pyrolysis oils in diesel engines has been scarcely studied, and the few studies which have been performed indicate that these fuels exhibit excessively long ignition delay, rendering them dependant on auxiliary ignition sources for diesel engine operation. This work …

Mixing and Combustion Studies in an Optically-Accessible Small-Bore High-Speed Direct -Injection Diesel Engine
… single cylinder small-bore HSDI diesel engine equipped with a Bosch common-rail injection system was used to study the effects of injection strategies on mixing and combustion. A single main and multiple injection strategy were investigated in this study, varying injection …

Profiling the Organic Emissions from a Light-Duty Direct Injection Diesel Engine over a range of Speeds and Loads
Diesel engines account for a large percentage of the particulates in urban city environments. Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAC), some proven carcinogens, have been found on diesel particulates. The trace level nitro-PAC emissions, such as 1-nitropyrene and dinitropyrenes, contribute a large …

Single- and Two -Photon Fluorescence for the Detection of Nitric Oxide in an Optically-Accessible Direct -Injection Diesel Engine
… of two-photon NO LIF in an internal-combustion engine. The technique avoids many of the problems associated with in cylinder, single-photon NO PLIF measurements including: (1) fluorescence interference from the Schumann-Runge bands of hot O2, (2) broadband absorption of a UV excitation beam by …

Investigation of the Combustion, Emissions, and Engine Performance Characteristics of Cottonseed Biodiesel for use in Power Generation
… of cotton seed FAME (C100 and C20), in a direct injection diesel engine. The research compares the combustion and emissions characteristics of cotton seed FAME to ultra-low sulfur diesel #2 (ULSD#2) to investigate possible use in a startup boiler to produce steam for large boiler …
