  1. The effect of spark timing on residual gas fraction

    Residual gas tests were done on a 2.4 liter commercial engine to find a correlation for the effect on spark timing on residual gas fraction. The tests were done by sampling the charge mass during a non-firing cycle through a small hole into cylinder 4. The residual gas fraction was determined by …
