Formula 1’s next-generation power units are not even on the grid yet and they are already reshaping the competitive landscape ...

ABSTRACT This study investigated neat n-butanol combustion, emissions and thermal efficiency characteristics in a compression ignition (CI) engine by using two fuelling techniques - port fuel ...

A.Here's a pressure-volume diagram for a combustion engine. Although rough, it is an approximation of the so-called air-standard cycle. '' Point (a) is at atmospheric pressure, after which the air is ...

ABSTRACT Depleting fossil resources, a constantly rising energy demand and worries about greenhouse gas emissions force society to explore novel concepts for future mobile propulsion. In the context ...

Let's discuss something that is well known by diesel mechanics and hard-core enthusiasts but may not be fully understood by new diesel owners or people who may have heard the term "compression ...

We love ourselves a good oddball engine, and tiny, scrappy Mazda certainly must be responsible for more such engine concept patents per market-capitalization dollar than any other. We just discovered ...

For more than a decade, automotive engineers and researchers have been struggling to come to grips with a way to build an engine that runs on gasoline while harnessing the efficiency and torque ...

Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines combine a diesel's torque and fuel efficiency with a gas engine's cleaner emissions. The HCCI technique has been a goal of automakers since the ...
