Modelling Spark Ignition Combustion
Lakshminarayanan, P A / Agarwal, Avinash Kumar / Ge, Haiwen / Mallikarjuna, J M
The book provides a comprehensive overview of combustion models used in different types of spark ignition engines. In the first generation of spark ignition (SI) engines, the turbulence is created by the shear flow passing through the intake valves, and significantly decays during the intake and compression strokes. The residual turbulence enhances the laminar flame velocity, which is characteristic of the fuel and increases the relative effec...
