SAE International Journal of Engines, Vol. 14, No. 3 (2021), pp. 335-344 (10 pages) The addition of a spark plug in place of the original fuel injector and fumigating natural gas (NG) inside the ...

IF combustion of fuel-air mixtures is completed in an engine before chemical reactions have had time to take place, no knock-producing materials are formed-thus solving a chronic, critical problem.

IN the eighty or so pages of this little book Mr. Morgan gives the result of certain experiments by others and himself to determine the nature of electric spark ignition in internal-combustion engines ...

Researchers have theoretically linked ignition and deflagration in a combustion system, unlocking new configurations for stable, efficient combustion engines due to the possible existence of any ...

Ignition coils last far longer than spark plugs and only need replacement when symptoms appear. Here’s how to tell if coils ...

A.Here's a pressure-volume diagram for a combustion engine. Although rough, it is an approximation of the so-called air-standard cycle. '' Point (a) is at atmospheric pressure, after which the air is ...

IRVINE, Calif.—Despite rumors to the contrary, the internal combustion engine is far from dead. Recently we’ve seen several technological advances that will significantly boost the efficiency of ...

Most pickup trucks sold today have internal combustion engines. Passenger vehicles are powered by two main types of engines: compression, aka diesel, and spark ignition, aka gasoline. Besides the type ...

What many consider the Holy Grail of combustion technology is one step closer to prime time. In the race to field energy-efficient vehicles, don’t count out internal combustion technology just yet. GM ...

There is no shortage of people around the world today who seem pretty certain that the days of the internal combustion engine (ICE) as the primary form of propulsion for transportation are effectively ...

Purdue University researchers are working on methods to use jet ignition technology to help power personal cars and other automobiles. (Stock photo) The same technology used in jets soon may be ...
