The goal of the ECN is to promote the development of predictive engine combustion modeling for the design of more fuel-efficient, low-emission engines. The ECN provides highly leveraged, vetted datasets for spray and engine combustion model development by utilizing contributions from many experimental and modeling participants at pre-selected operating conditions appropriate to engines. Workshops are held to coordinate this research. Organizers gather 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, and to identify needed future directions.
The topical areas chosen for ECN5 build upon recommendations from past workshops and current research pathways. The ECN5 group topics, guidelines, and leaders are listed below.
1. Diesel nozzle geometry and internal nozzle flow (Guidelines), Presented by Marco Arienti (Sandia)
2. Primary atomization (near-nozzle flow) (Guidelines), Presented by Michele Battistoni (Perugia)
3. Evaporative diesel spray (Guidelines), Presented by Michele Bardi (IFPEN)
4. Reactions that lead to ignition (Guidelines), Presented by Evatt Hawkes (UNSW)
5. Combustion (lift-off length, flame structure) (Guidelines), Presented by Jose M Garcia-Oliver (CMT)
6. Emissions (soot, NOx, UHC) (Guidelines), Presented by Scott Skeen (Sandia)
7. Spray B (diesel) in engines (Guidelines), Presented by Louis-Marie Malbec (IFPEN)
8. Spray G nozzle geometry and internal nozzle flow (Guidelines), Presented by Chris Powell (Argonne)
9. Evaporative Spray G (external, plume interaction, flash boiling) (Guidelines), Presented by Daniel Vaquerizo (CMT)
10. Spray G (gasoline) in engines. Work is in progress, but it will not be covered at ECN5. See past (Guidelines)
