Combustion control of DME HCCI using charge dilution and spark assistance

To realize the potential of DME for clean combustion, fueling control is essential. In this research, the challenges, advantages, and applicability of high-pressure direct injection and low-pressure port injection are reviewed and evaluated, especially in relevance to HCCI combustion. In this study, emphasis is given to the applicable ranges of low-pressure fuel delivery in relevance to load, air-fuel ratio, and inert gas dilution, for …
