Efficient and low-emission diesel engine combustion processes require an optimal fuel-air mixing and combustion process. Therefore, already in an early engine design phase there is a strong interest among injector and engine developers for a simple and reliable method to predict fuel spray penetration characteristics at engine-like conditions. At the Institute of Piston Machines and Internal Combustion Engines of Rostock University a new application-oriented spray penetration model considering injector type individual behaviour was developed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
