Simulation study on in-cylinder combustion and pollutant generation characteristics of PODE/methanol blends

Junheng Liu et al.

Summary: This study investigates the cooperative control of particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions from compression ignition engines using polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers (PODE) and methanol as diesel alternative fuels. The results show that the addition of methanol increases combustion pressure, shortens combustion duration, and reduces NOx emissions and soot emission.

Thermodynamic modelling of dimethyl ether steam reforming

Joshua O. Ighalo et al.

Summary: Hydrogen as a clean energy source can be obtained through steam reforming of hydrogen-rich materials like DME. This study utilized thermodynamic analysis of DME steam reforming to develop predictors for molar yield of chemical species. Factors such as temperature, pressure, and steam to carbon ratio were found to have significant effects on the process, with the model predictors playing a crucial role in the design of DME reforming systems.

Performance and emissions of renewable blends with OME3-5 and HVO in heavy duty and light duty compression ignition engines

Josefine Preuss et al.

Summary: Interest in using poly(oxymethylene)dimethyl ether (OME3-5) as an alternative to fossil fuels in compression ignition engines has grown due to its potential for reducing soot emissions. Blending OME3-5 with other substances is necessary to prevent damage to engine components. Research showed that blended oxygenated fuels had slightly higher thermal efficiency and shorter combustion duration, leading to reduced soot emissions.

Experimental and numerical study on the effect of oxymethylene ether-3 (OME3) on soot particle formation

Federica Ferraro et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the impact of oxymethylene ether-3 (OME3) blended with ethylene on carbon particulate formation, indicating a reduction in total number and size of soot particles at various equivalence ratios, with little change in the number of small nanoparticles. The results suggest that OME3 addition may contribute to reducing carbon particulate matter emissions while maintaining the number of small nanoparticles.

Numerical investigation of multiphase reactive processes using flamelet generated manifold approach and extended coherent flame combustion model

Filip Juric et al.

Summary: The study compares and validates the flamelet generated manifold (FGM) and Three-zones extended coherent flame model (ECFM-3Z) for multiphase reactive processes inside compression ignition engines. Both models show differences in predicting ignition delay and combustion processes for single and multiple injection strategies, and demonstrate good predictive capabilities on nitric oxide emission trends.
