Effect of air-fuel ratio on the combustion characteristics of syngas (H2:CO) in direct-injection spark-ignition engine
This paper presents experimental results of the effect of air-fuel ratio on the combustion characteristics of a directinjection spark-ignition engine fuelled with a syngas of H2/CO composition of equal molar ratio. The engine was operated at fully open throttle and the start of fuel injection (SOI)...
