| Description | - The effectiveness of jet ignition is significantly affected by the prechamber internal geometry - Jet ignition is more sensitive to changes in the prechamber internal geometry when operating with passive prechamber fuelling - Jet ignition with high octane gaseous fuels can help reduce heavy duty internal combustion engines dependency on diesel |
| Exploitation Route | - Implementation of prechamber technology into heavy duty diesel vehicles for reduced emissions - Reduced investment into prechamber technology for internal combustion engines of varying displacements |
| Sectors | Construction Energy Manufacturing including Industrial Biotechology Transport |
| Title | 1D Jet Ignition |
| Description | - Adapt existing combustion models to predict the flow variables for an internal combustion engine with prechamber technology - Results are generated for the compression and expansion strokes - The model incorporates jet ignition phenomena identified from 3D simulations - Simulink was employed to construct the model and perform preliminary tests |
| Type Of Material | Computer model/algorithm |
| Year Produced | 2022 |
| Provided To Others? | No |
| Impact | - Rapid generation of prechamber flow variables, in comparison to 3D simulations |
