THE FUEL CHEMISTRY IMPACTS OF GASOLINE/ETHANOL
BLENDS IN AN HCCI SINGLE CYLINDER RESEARCH ENGINE
CRC Project No. AVFL-13b
Leaders: S. W. Jorgensen
K. J. Wright
Scope and Objective
The objective of this project is to identify
fuel chemistry that impacts operation in 'gasoline' homogenous charge
compression ignition (HCCI) engines.
Current Status and Future Program
This project is a
follow-on to AVFL-13, using the same contractor, test engine, and protocol, with
a different fuel set that explores the effect of ethanol on the HCCI combustion.
This project is ongoing, and is expected to continue into 2008.
