Dr. Vickey Kalaskar and the SwRI team have pioneered a groundbreaking testing methodology to tackle stochastic pre-ignition (SPI) in heavy-duty hydrogen-fueled engines (H2-ICEs). SAN ANTONIO — ...

Southwest Research Institute and The University of Texas at San Antonio are collaborating to develop methods to detect pre-ignitions in real-time. The researchers will first use laboratory-grade ...

Like much in life, the difference between detonation and pre-ignition, and their effects, comes down to timing. Both refer to a situation when an engine's fuel/air mixture combusts at the wrong time, ...

THE experiments on the frictional electrification of sand described by E. W. B. Gill 1 are of interest in respect of the pre-ignition and combustion knock generally observed when hydrogen is used as ...

ISRO said the successful ignition of the pre-burner was a “major milestone” in the development of the engine. “This will be followed by development tests on the engine power head test article and ...

MAHLE can now integrate pre-chamber ignition into engines that are already into production without having to change much in the machining process. MAHLE Jet Ignition technology can be installed in ...

Sebastian's spare time is spent watching Formula 1, fiddling with his friends' cars (usually German money pits), and soaking up as much architectural amazement and engineering excellence as he can ...

Back in 2012, Gizmag looked at LiquidPiston’s X2 rotary engine. The compact, low-vibration, high-efficiency 70 bhp and 40 bhp compression ignition engine was something of a sensation. Now the company ...

Aston Martin Lagonda Global has been granted a patent for a pre-combustion chamber assembly designed for spark ignition engines. This assembly features an ignition chamber that effectively removes ...

When your car starts making a metallic knocking sound under the hood, you'd assume it could only be one thing: the engine. However, there are two common culprits, and they're definitely not the same.
