A mathematical model of a free piston linear engine is established. The motion characteristics as well as the natural frequency map of the free piston are established. Then, its motion characteristics are successfully explained from the oscillation point. The full simulation model is built up in...

A diesel engine is modified for homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion with dimethyl ether. With and without knock, in-cylinder pressure is acquired, and in-cylinder temperature, rate of heat release (ROHR), pressure rise rate and pressure rise acceleration obtained. Wavelet...

As an important policy instrument for climate mitigation, the carbon tax policy design and its consequent social-economic impact calls for more research. In this paper, a dynamic Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model – CASIPM-GE model is applied to explore the impact of a carbon tax and...

With global climate changing, urban microclimate is deteriorating at a faster rate than before in many cities. In this paper, the significant effect of the deterioration of urban microclimate on air-conditioning energy consumption (ACEC) is studied. Cumulative effect (CE) has enormous influence...
