    Fundamentals of thermodynamic for pressure-based low-temperature premixed diesel combustion control
    (2013) Rebecchi, Patrick; Bargende, Michael (Prof. Dr.-Ing.)
    This thesis shows the results of investigations about the combustion mechanisms of low-temperature premixed processes, in particular those in which only a partial homogenization of the fuel mixture is achieved, since they represent a realistic solution for commercial engine applications. Measurements has been carried out on a modern 6-cylinder diesel engine equipped with a rapid-prototyping ECU and in-cylinder pressure sensors. The engine has been operated on a dynamic test bench. On the base of thorough combustion analysis a new closedloop combustion control strategy has been defined. This has been completed by a procedure for allowing to switch the combustion mode to conventional diffusive combustion extending the drivability range up to engine full-load.
