ABSTRACT High-load HCCI combustion has recently been demonstrated with conventional gasoline using intake pressure boosting. The key is to control the high combustion heat release rates (HRR) by using ...

Fuel effects on combustion characteristics, including combustion robustness/stability, for partially premixed compression ignition (PPCI) combustion was investigated using Delphi’s second-generation ...

Potent gasoline-like biofuels are needed to fuel millions of cars with internal combustion engines, and current biofuels don't pack the necessary power. Now scientists have programmed bacteria to ...

With Project Pure Poncho fully broken-in and its power documented (491.8 hp/551 lb-ft), it was now time to begin our research and development work. As a review to those who may not have followed the ...

Does your street-driven car ping now when it didn't use to? It may be suffering from octane creep caused by deposit buildup inside the combustion chambers. New engines on the dyno and regularly ...

Anyone that’s ever topped off their tank or filled up a jerry can knows gasoline comes in different grades, from regular unleaded to pricey premium. Each “flavor” has a number that corresponds to its ...

Many passenger vehicles, including three-wheelers and motorcycles are fueled by octane 95 gasoline when octane 92 gasoline (petrol) is available at a lower price. Otto engine (petrol engine) is an ...

While our automobiles have experienced remarkable changes over the past several decades, the fuels we put in them have not. Specifically, the octane rating of regular gasoline today is the same as it ...

In mid-December we showed you the second custom build based on the new liquid-cooled engine Victory introduced a month ago at EICMA 2015, and we can now confirm that Victory Octane will be equipped ...
