Cylinder-Averaged Histories of Nitrogen Oxide in a D.I. Diesel with Simulated Turbocharging 20 OCT 94 16 pages
Authors:  Ronald J. Donahue; Gary L. Borman; Glenn R. Bower; WISCONSIN UNIV-MADISON ENGINE RESEARCH CENTER
The full text of this report is available for sale.An experimental study was conducted using the dumping technique (total cylinder sampling) to produce cylinder mass-averaged nitric oxide histories. Data were taken using a four stroke diesel research engine employing a quiescent chamber, high pressure direct ijection fuel system, and simulated turbocharging. Two fuels were used to determine fuel cetane number effects. Two loads were run, one at an equivalence ratio of 0.5 and the other at a ratio of ...


Geometry of the Fuel Cloud Created by Impingement of a Diesel Jet onto a Small Heated Target 20 OCT 94
Authors:  Richard A. Booth; Gary L. Borman; WISCONSIN UNIV-MADISON
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.The work presented was performed to increase the understanding of the important variables involved in the radial penetration of the droplet cloud formed by a liquid jet impinging on a target placed a short distance from the injector orifice. The experiments studied a spray produced in a high pressure, ambient temperature bomb by a Lucas OAV injector system with a Bosch pump. Three experimental procedures were performed. The first experiment ...


Using Fiber Optics and Laser Fluorescence for Measuring Thin Oil Films with Application to Engines 10 OCT 91
Authors:  Dana E. Richardson; Gary L. Borman; WISCONSIN UNIV-MADISON
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.A new method has been developed for measuring the oil films on cylinder walls in engines that offers benefits in improved understanding of oil transport and consumption. The unique aspect of this work is that fiber optics and laser induced fluorescence are combined to measure the oil film thickness. As a result the system is much less intrusive than previous methods using windows to observe the fluorescence. Static tests were ...


Development of a Modular Transient Cycle Analysis Program for the Adiabatic Diesel and Other Compound Diesel Engines 17 JUN 91 123 pages
Authors:  Gary L. Borman; Patrick V. Farrell; David E. Foster; Jay K. Martin; Phillip S. Myers; WISCONSIN UNIV-MADISON ENGINE RESEARCH CENTER
The full text of this report is available for sale.This final report covers a broad range of research activities, each of which contributes to the improved application of zero-dimensional engine cycle codes and/or multidimensional computational fluid mechanics (CFM) codes to engine design. Most of the work focused on problems related to in-cylinder heat transfer.


A Study of Diesel Cold Starting Using both Cycle Analysis and Multidimensional Calculations 01 MAR 91
Authors:  Manuel A. Gonzalez; Gary L. Borman; Rolf D. Reitz; WISCONSIN UNIV-MADISON ENGINE RESEARCH CENTER

A New Instrument for Radiation Flux Measurement in Diesel Engines 89
Authors:  Jingde Yan; Gary L. Borman; WISCONSIN UNIV-MADISON ENGINE RESEARCH CENTER
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.A new instrument for measurement of diesel in-cylinder radiation heat transfer has been designed, calibrated, and tested in a single cylinder, open chamber, turbocharged diesel engine. The unique feature of the instrument is that it measures the total radiation flux over the entire hemisphere, rather than being restricted to a finite acceptance angle of less than 2 P steradians as have previous instruments. The paper gives the instrument design details ...


Diesel Cylinder Gas-Side Heat Flux to a Ceramic Surface 01 JUN 86 42 pages
Authors:  Gary L. Borman; Jeffrey C. Huang; WISCONSIN UNIV-MADISON ENGINE COMBUSTION LAB
The full text of this report is available for sale.Results of four research projects each dealing with instantaneous heat flux to the cylinder head of reciprocating engine are given. The projects are: heat flux to the cylinder head of a reciprocating engine are given. The projects are: heat flux measurements in a diesel engine with variations in injection pressure, nozzle tips and swirl; development of instrumentation for radiation measurements in a diesel cylinder; heat flux measurements to various surfaces ...
