Includes bibliographical references (p. 116-121). This research forms part of an ongoing HCCI study at the SASOL Advanced Fuels Laboratory to investigate and understand engine configuration and fuel chemistry effects on combustion in HCCI engines. This project continues from a previous project where a small Progress Aero Works (PAW) 6.5cc high speed model "diesel" aeroplane engine was found to operate in HCCI mode with surprising ease and flexibility. A 25cc, four-stroke, single cylinder Honda GX25 engine, possessing 2-valves with an overhead cam and separate oil sump lubrication system was used. This research aimed to provide insight with respect to which engine characteristics such as size, heat transfer, speed and fuel blending effects, play the primary role in operational differences between the Honda GX25, conventional HCCI engines and the remarkable operational flexibility of the PAW engine. 2015-01-13T04:01:06Z 2015-01-13T04:01:06Z 2009 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12127 eng application/pdf Department of Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
