Effect of Spark-Ignition on Combustion Periods during Spark-Assisted Compression Ignition

Combustion Science and Technology, 2009
Previous works employed pressure-based heat release analysis, spark-discharge current/voltage measurements, and cycle-resolved combustion imaging to identify four periods of stratified-charge spark-assisted compression ignition: spark discharge, early kernel growth (EKG), flame propagation, and compression ignition.

High Efficiency Stoichiometric Spark Ignition Engines

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1994
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Nowadays most passenger cars are equipped with spark ignition engines with a three way catalyst. Thus, the improvement of fuel consumption of this type of engine represents a very attractive goal. In fact, it may cause a reduction of pollutant emission, and simultaneously, it may give a contribution to the lowering

Hydrocarbon Emissions from Spark-Ignition Engines

2009
To contrast the phenomenon of HC formation in a Diesel and a spark ignition engine, a chapter is included on the latter. The absorption and desorption of fuel by cylinder lubricating oil films has been modelled using principles of mass transfer in this Chapter.

Spark and Laser Ignition

2009
In the context of nonshock initiation of secondary explosives, electric sparks and lasers represent sources of external power that may stimulate exothermic reaction in energetic materials, and generate enough heat and reaction product gases to ignite a propagating combustion reaction.
