Advances in Internal Combustion Engines and Fuel Technologies

Description

InTech, 2013. 318 p. — ISBN:9535110484, 9789535110484This book highlights the important need for more efficient and environmentally sound combustion technologies that utilise renewable fuels to be continuously developed and adopted. The central theme here is two-fold: internal combustion engines and fuel solutions for combustion systems.The book allows extremes of the theme to be covered in a simple yet progressive way.Contents Preface Advances in Internal Combustion Engines Premixed Combustion in Spark Ignition Engines and the Influence of Operating Variables Combustion Process in the Spark-lgnition Engine with Dual-Injection System Stratified Charge Combustion in a Spark-lgnition Engine With Direct Injection System Homogenous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) Engines Advances in The Design of Two-Stroke, High Speed.
