Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports

Advanced combustion strategies have been proposed to improve fuel efficiency while minimizing exhaust emissions. Gasoline compression ignition (GCI) combustion featuring partially premixed compression ignition (PPCI) and diffusion combustion has been recognized as an attractive, viable combustion strategy for its potential and advantages over conventional diesel and gasoline engines. The optimization of the GCI engine system requires the development of a quasi-dimensional GCI combustion model capable of simulating GCI combustion while requesting less computational burden than CFD simulation, which is very critical in engine system simulation. This study developed a quasi-dimension, phenomenological combustion model for PPCI and diffusion combustion to facilitate …
