This paper compares the well-to-wheel (WTW) greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of representative vehicle types–internal combustion engine vehicle (ICEV), hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), battery electric vehicle (BEV), and fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV)–in the future (2030) based on a WTW analysis for the present (2017) and an analysis of various energy policies that could affect future emissions. South Korea was selected as the target region because it has d

In-cylinder pre-processing (or recompression reaction) of pilot-injected fuel during negative value overlap (NVO) has been investigated as a method to extend the low-load limit of residual-effected homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI). In an effort to elucidate the chemical and thermal effects involved, model calculations have been performed on the recompression reaction and ignition delay of the recompression products using a reduced n-heptane mechanism (160 reactions, 1424 reactions)

Experiments have been reported in the literature in which the low-load limit of a retention-mode HCCI engine operating on gasoline has been significantly extended by pre-processing of the fuel during negative valve overlap. This paper presents experimental studies in which this low-load-limit extension is demonstrated and characterized using simple, single-component hydrocarbon fuels with relatively well-known chemical kinetics. The model fuels were n-heptane and i-octane and this choice was mad

In a previous study, a new hybrid system of molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) and homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine was developed, where the HCCI engine replaces the catalytic burner and produces additional power by using the left-over heating values from the fuel cell stack. In the present study, to reduce the additional cost and footprint of the engine system in a hybrid configuration, the possibility of engine downsizing is investigated by using two strategies, i.e. the us
