ABSTRACT An optically accessible Rapid Compression Expansion Machine (RCEM) has been used to investigate the homogeneous auto-ignition of five candidate fuels for Homogenous Charge Compression ...

A homogeneous mixture is also known as a solution. It is a substance composed of two or more substances that are distributed uniformly at a molecular level or microscopic. In easier terms, homogeneous ...

In the interest of making sure we all know they've got a mapped strategy for powertrain technology, GM is taking its message on the road. Recently, we got the chance to talk to a few of GM's experts ...

Researchers have created the first computational model to track engine performance from one combustion cycle to the next for a new type of engine that could dramatically reduce oil consumption and the ...

NOx emissions can be controlled through engine operation with lean homogeneous air/fuel mixtures. This emission control approach precludes the need for exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and secondary ...

Every new car sold in the United States today uses fuel injection, but not all fuel injection systems are the same. Some cars use port injection, while others use direct injection. Some even use both.

Creativity flows from the smallest of automakers: The SkyActiv-X engine compresses gasoline until it self-combusts. It uses ultra-lean air/fuel mixtures, low enough to sometimes need a spark plug to ...
