Surrogates of transportation fuels are useful design tools for developing engines with cleaner and more efficient combustion. It is important that information about the sooting tendency of the target fuel be incorporated in the formulation of these surrogates. Toward that end, in this work we report experimentally measured sooting tendencies of several diesel and jet fuels, surrogates of these fuels,...
While strategies employing early or late direct-injection of fuel can improve emissions, they also can lead to impingement of liquid-phase fuel on the piston and/or cylinder wall due to low in-cylinder temperatures and densities during the injection event. Previous work has shown that liquid-phase fuel films formed in this way can lead to pronounced degradations in efficiency and emissions. To avoid...
