Knocking Combustion Observed in a Spark-ignition Engine with Simultaneous Direct and Schlieren High-speed Motion Pictures and Pressure Records


Book Description

This report support simultaneous direct and schlieren photographs at 40,000 frames a second and correlated pressure records taken of knocking combustion in a special spark-ignition engine to ascertain intensity of certain end-zone reactions previously seen by schlieren photography alone.




Fuel Systems for IC Engines


Book Description

This book presents the papers from the latest conference in this successful series on fuel injection systems for internal combustion engines. It is vital for the automotive industry to continue to meet the demands of the modern environmental agenda. In order to excel, manufacturers must research and develop fuel systems that guarantee the best engine performance, ensuring minimal emissions and maximum profit. The papers from this unique conference focus on the latest technology for state-of-the-art system design, characterisation, measurement, and modelling, addressing all technological aspects of diesel and gasoline fuel injection systems. Topics range from fundamental fuel spray theory, component design, to effects on engine performance, fuel economy and emissions. - Presents the papers from the IMechE conference on fuel injection systems for internal combustion engines - Papers focus on the latest technology for state-of-the-art system design, characterisation, measurement and modelling; addressing all technological aspects of diesel and gasoline fuel injection systems - Topics range from fundamental fuel spray theory and component design to effects on engine performance, fuel economy and emissions
