Earlier this month, Japanese automaker Mazda laid out its future powertrain strategy and dropped a massive announcement in the process. In 2019, Mazda will introduce a gasoline-powered Homogeneous ...

General Motors Corp. today unveiled a new engine it that it says will increase fuel economy by 15 percent by burning gasoline the same way a diesel engine burns fuel. GM calls the innovation ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) is a promising combustion concept for internal combustion engines to reduce emissions and fuel ...

It is a technology that melds a diesel engine's high efficiency and massive torque with a gasoline engine's low emissions and smooth running. And it could be the next big evolution of the internal ...

Researchers at all the major car companies and U.S. labs are trying to perfect homogenous-charge compressionignition technology (HCCI) in the quest for more fuel-efficient internal combustion engines.

ABSTRACT High-load HCCI combustion has recently been demonstrated with conventional gasoline using intake pressure boosting. The key is to control the high combustion heat release rates (HRR) by using ...
