Engine Combustion Network 2nd Workshop, ECN2

7-8 Sept. 2012, Heidelberg, Germany, after ICLASS 2012

Workshop summary

Over 100 participants from 20 different countries attended the workshop, and 40 more accessed the live presentations via webcast. The workshop addressed key stages of spray development and combustion, with 8 institutions contributing experimental data and 16 different groups offering CFD simulations at these same operating conditions. Organizers gathered experimental and modeling results prior to the workshop to allow a side-by-side comparison and expert review of the current state of the art for diagnostics and engine modeling.

Proceedings from the workshop are available to download below, including video/audio recordings of the event. The proceedings include a summary abstract followed by the presentation. When movies were used in the presentation, a .zip file of a powerpoint document and movies has been made to allow delivery of all information.
