It is divided into two parts. In the initial part, the focus in on fuels, with four papers discussing the use of biofuels and other alternative fuels that can be used in different types of IC Engines. Additionally, conventional fuels are tested in order to evaluate their optimal use in new downsizing high-boost engines. A revision paper on alternative fuels is also included. The second part involves the study and improvement of engine combustion diagnostics as well as the presentation of an alternative type of propulsion system.Technology: general issuesbicssc0D-1D engine modelingalternative fuelsartificial neural networkaxial enginesBiodieselbiofuelsburning velocitycalorimetercombustion bombcombustion optimizationcooperative combustion diagnosis and controlcycle-to-cycle variationcylinder pressurecylinder-to-cylinder variationdiesel enginesdiethyl etherdownsizingdownspeedingemissionsethanolexhaust emissions and spark-ignition engineexperimentsfield-programmable gate arrayfuel consumptionfuel economyfuelsinternal combustion engineIon currentiso-octaneknock sensorknockinglipid bio-oilsmultifuel potentialn-heptanenatural gas engineoctane numberopposed piston engineperformancepyrogasolinespark ignitionspark plugspark-ignitionsurrogate fuelssynthetic fuelsthermal energytolueneuniflow scavengingvariable compression ratiovariable valve timingvehicle accelerationwobble plateTechnology: general issuesMartins Jorgeedt1295539Martins JorgeothBOOK9910557437703321New Trends on the Combustion Processes in Spark Ignition Engines3023596UNINA
