Single-zone zero-dimensional model study for diesel-fuelled homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines using Cantera

Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine technology is relatively new and the combustion behavior in an HCCI engine is difficult to predict.The combustion is fully controlled by the chemical kinetics and the chemical reaction of the mixture is influenced by changing input parameters.A zero-dimensional single-zone model was used to investigate the combustion behavior of a diesel engine…
