Numerical Investigation of the Effects of Equivalence Ratio and EGR on Combustion Characteristics in an n-Heptane Fueled HCCI Engine
Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) combustion offers low nitrogen oxides and soot emissions with high thermal efficiency, but direct control of combustion phasing is lacking. In this study, the effects of fuel-air equivalence ratio and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) on the combustion characteristics of an...
