Natural gas fueled compression ignition engine performance and emissions maps with diesel and RME pilot fuels

Imran, S.; Emberson, D.R.; Diez, A.; Wen, D.S.; … - In: Applied Energy 124 (2014) C, pp. 354-365

When natural gas is port/manifold injected into a compression ignition engine, the mixture of air and the natural gas is compressed during the compression stroke of the engine. Due to the difference in the values of specific heat capacity ratio between air and natural gas, the temperature and...
