Spark Ignition Engine Combustion

Course details

This course provides professional automotive engineers with a fundamental understanding of the combustion processes associated with Spark Ignition Engine design. It presents the essential analytical diagnostics and practical approaches required to quantify the turbulent flow field combustion and heat release rate.

Following the wide range of fundamentals presented on the first three days, mixture preparation and the combustion and practical aspects of alternative fuels are addressed before progressing to advanced production-ready and potential future concepts. These include Gasoline Direct Injection and Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition.

An example course programme is available in the left hand column.
