Poor in-cylinder mixing processes due to ineffective fuel delivery are problematic in large-bore, slow-speed, natural gas two-stroke cycle engines. High levels of combustion variability and documented engine performance improvements due to mixing…
Mixing is viewed as being problematic in many internal combustion engines, particularly large bore natural gas engines. In reviewing the literature an attempt is made to distinguish between the influences of mixing and turbulence, although for much…
This work collected the necessary data and then perform testing and analysis of Enhanced Mixing and Combustion Techniques (EMCT) on large bore reciprocating engines to assess the non-emissions related benefits offered by this technology.
An evaluation study was conducted of the Hoerbiger/Altronic HYPERfuel™ high-pressure fuel injection system. This work was performed by the EECL under contract to Hoerbiger Corporation of America. The project was funded by the Gas Technology Institute…
