Article Experimental Study on the Deflagration to Detonation Transition of Hydrogen Mixture under Elevated Pressure and Temperature Conditions Xiao Yu, Long Jin, Linyan Wang, Navjot Sandhu, and Ming Zheng * Department of Mechanical, Automotive and Materials Engineering, University of Windsor, 401 Sunset Avenue, Windsor, ON N9B 3P4, Canada * Corresp...

Compression ignition diesel engines offer power-dense solutions for heavy-duty vehicles. The purpose of combustion management for diesel engines primarily concerns the balance of high efficiency and low emissions. Conventional single-shot diesel combustion involves extended overlap of fuel injection and combustion, promoting diffusion combustion, w...

Compression ignition diesel engines offer a power dense solution for heavy-duty on-road vehicles. The purpose of combustion management for diesel engines primarily concerns the balance of high efficiency and low emissions. Conventional diesel combustion, i.e. single-shot fuel scheduling, is subject to an extended overlap of fuel injection and combu...

The push for environmental protection and sustainability has led to strict emission regulations for automotive manufacturers as evident in EURO VII and EPA2027 requirements. The challenge lies in maintaining fuel efficiency and simultaneously reducing the carbon footprint while meeting future emission regulations. Nitrogen oxides represent one of t...

Low-carbon fuels can reduce the carbon footprint within the transportation sector significantly. Upcoming emission regulations challenge diesel-fueled combustion engines, especially concerning NOx and smoke. Combustion strategies that enable low-temperature combustion can realize low NOx and soot emissions, simultaneously. Reactivity-charged compre...

div class="section abstract"> Compression ignition engines used in heavy-duty applications are typically powered by diesel fuel. The high energy density and feedstock abundance provide a continuing source for the immense energy demand. However, the heavy-duty transportation sector is challenged with lowering greenhouse gas and combustion by-product...

Modern automotive propulsion technologies must achieve the highest CO2 reduction potential quickly to abide by the requirements of the Paris Climate Agreement. A collective utilization of renewable fuels, e‐fuels, hydrogen, and electrical energy will be able to meet different mobility and transport requirements in an optimal and CO2‐neutral approac...

To realize the potential of DME for clean combustion, fueling control is essential. In this research, the challenges, advantages, and applicability of high-pressure direct injection and low-pressure port injection are reviewed and evaluated, especially in relevance to HCCI combustion. In this study, emphasis is given to the applicable ranges of low...

div class="section abstract"> Meeting the increasingly stringent emission and fuel efficiency standards is the primary objective of the modern automotive research. Lean/diluted combustion is a promising avenue to realize high-efficiency combustion and reduce emissions in SI engines. Under diluted conditions, the flame propagation speed is reduced b...

For decades, alternative fuels have been studied to further engine efficiency and lower combustion emissions. Of these fuels, biodiesel, alcohols, and ethers have shown advantageous benefits of improved mixing capability or reduced combustion emissions. Ether fuels consist of a range of C-O-C chain lengths that offer various noteworthy fuel propert...

The suitability of an energy source for automotive application is determined by its gravimetric and volumetric energy density, portability, and safety characteristics. Hydrocarbon fuels predominate the energy resource in transportation sector mainly because of the favorable energy density and easiness for fuel handling, storage and transportation....

Sustainable transportation solutions for the future would require advanced powertrains which can meet the goals of emission and fuel consumption reduction. One option could be high-efficiency spark ignition (SI) internal combustion engines using conventional or renewable fuels. Such SI engines in the future may operate under lean conditions at whic...

The pragmatic way forward to supply energy for a future quality living has to be threaded on a fusion path, where conventional energy is unceasingly refined as major renewable energy is made more financially sustainable. This proceeding contains a highlight of preeminent advances of energy, including a touch on the associated politics. A general a...
