The Effect of Compression Ratio on the Performance and Emissions of Internal Combustion Engine Using Oxy Fuels
Abstract: Energy sources are becoming a major issue, with the main concern being cost and continuous supply. The production of oxy fuels is cheap, simple and environmentally friendly, as well as being able to be produced locally, reducing the cost of transporting fuel. Oxy fuels are used as a pure fuel directly in an engine or can be mixed with fossil fuel. The fuels granted under oxy fuels are methanol, ethanol, …

TurbochargedTwo-Stroke SI Engine as Back-up Range Extender for Battery Electric Vehicles
Abstract: Installation studies indicates that a compact single-cylinder two stroke Spark Ignited (SI)-engine with a swept volume of 400-500 cc is small enough to install in the heavy-duty Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) application considered here. Four-stroke engines of similar power to the two-stroke engine would need additional installation volume because of the larger cylinder heads, bulky oil pans and the need for more cylinders to create the same number of power-pulses …

Design and Analysis of Multicylinder Four Stroke Spark Ignition Axial Engine (Duke Engine)
Abstract: Engine is a very important component in automobiles and it is act as a prime mover. The engine transmits power to the road wheels trough linkages (Clutch, gearbox, propeller shaft and differential) against to the self-weight of the vehicle and external load, which results the engine components undergo stressed. The engine components also exposed to the heat so that the thermal stress are induced. Based on the above said points …

Turbocharging of Spark Ignited Wankel engine for High Altitude Application Using 1-D Simulation Approach
Abstract: Wankel engines are increasingly finding their application in unmanned aerial vehicles, especially where high power-to-weight ratio is of utmost importance. This advantage makes the Wankel engines outperform the reciprocating engines despite several shortfalls. 1-D simulation model of the Wankel engine has been constructed from commercially available software for reciprocating piston engines. This model was then used to study the matching of turbocharger for the required application and the effect of …
