Alcohol Fuels in Advanced Combustion Strategy Mode Diesel Engines

Alcohol Fuels in Advanced Combustion Strategy Mode Diesel Engines investigates the utilization of alcohol-based fuels in diesel engines with specific emphasis on advanced combustion modes, including homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI), premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI), partially premixed compression ignition (PPCI), and dual fuel reactivity-controlled compression ignition (RCCI). Exploring the application of wavelet power spectrum analysis, the book demonstrates its use as a technique for evaluating the stability of combustion in a diesel engine operating in low-temperature combustion (LTC) mode. It identifies the most effective injection timing when using alcohol-diesel blended fuels across different engine loads to achieve the low-temperature PPC strategy. The book will interest industry professionals in automotive and fuels engineering working with alcohol fuels, advanced combustion mode diesel engines, engine instrumentation, and environmental challenges.
