MUNICH, Germany — Future engine management systems will be based on the pressure measured in the combustion engine's cylinders and will use variable valve control, for example. This major new ...

Imagine more efficient internal combustion engines with lower emissions, sparked by computer simulation. Scientists across the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have ...

Researchers have simulated autoignition in a turbulent flow using a supercomputer with up to 65,000 processors in one of the largest reactive flow simulations to date. The results could help to ...

In this episode of Let’s Talk Exascale, Jackie Chen from Sandia National Laboratories describes the Combustion-Pele project, which uses predictive simulation for the development of cleaner-burning ...

In this video from PASC18, Saumil Patel from Argonne describes his poster: A low-Mach simulation of flow and heat transfer in a motored internal combustion engine using the spectral element method. A ...

Direct numerical simulations let researchers improve combustion efficiency and lower pollution in diesel engines. “Cool flames” may sound contradictory, but they could lead to better engine designs ...

Diesel and gasoline fuel sources both bring unique assets and liabilities to powering internal combustion engines. But what if an engine could be programmed to harvest the best properties of both fuel ...
