CO2 transport by ship: the way forward in Europe: 13th International Conference on Greenhouse Gas Control Technologies, GHGT 2016, 14-18 November 2016, Lausanne, Switzerland

This paper presents the results of a study into the functional requirements and optimisation of the CO2 shipping chain, with a focus on the offshore offloading system. The goal was to evaluate the feasibility of a generic approach to the development of ship-based CO2 transport and storage systems in the North Sea, using a range of typical North...

Gas density and rail pressure effects on diesel spray growth from a heavy-duty common rail injector

Formation of nonevaporating sprays from diesel fuel injection through a realistic heavy duty multihole common rail injector is studied in a newly developed high-pressure, high-temperature cell, using digital highspeed shadowgraphy at 4500 frames/s. Gas pressure was varied from 13 to 37 bar (corresponding to densities of 15-42 kg/m3, using N2 at...

Uncooled EGR as a means of limiting wall-wetting under early direct injection conditions

Collision of injected fuel spray against the cylinder liner (wall-wetting) is one of the main hurdles that must be overcome in order for early direct injection Premixed Charge Compression Ignition (EDI PCCI) combustion to become a viable alternative for conventional DI diesel combustion. Preferably, the prevention of wall-wetting should be...
