The EPIC project focuses on improving the efficiency of internal combustion engines by developing a novel constant-volume chamber. This chamber allows for detailed measurements of transient heat transfer and flame dynamics, which are crucial for optimizing combustion processes in smaller engine designs.
In the future, high-efficiency (low CO2) vehicles will be powered in part by reinvented internal combustion (IC) engines that are “downsized” and operate with new combustion modes.
These engine concepts are subject to problems such as increased transient heat transfer and flame quenching in small passages.
Near-wall transient heat transfer is not well-understood in engine environments; the gas is not constant in pressure, temperature, or velocity such that physical processes quickly digress from…
