Our efforts are focused on contributing towards improving efficiency of future engines and lowering emissions by helping our clients gain better insight into combustion processes and emissions pathways. For this purpose, we utilise our sophisticated modelling tools developed in-house. Our simulation capabilities exceed their conventional character of determining combustion and engine parameters to become fundamental tools to predict intrinsically complex emissions.

We employ products covering a spectrum of length scales from detailed 3D CFD simulations and chemical kinetics intensive coupled 1-D/3-D modelling right up to full engine cycle simulations.

One of our products, the stochastic reactor model (SRM), has been applied to development of conventional as well as alternative fuelled HCCI-ish engine technologies.

Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) [other variants: controlled auto-ignition (CAI), premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI), modulated kinetics (MK), etc.] is one such promising technology, where we are actively collaborating with engine developers worldwide while providing practical, time- and cost-effective tools to gain a better understanding of the HCCI technology and alleviate the challenges.

HCCI is a potential future internal combustion engine strategy on account of its compelling benefits:

-
Efficiency as high as compression ignition direct injection engines.
-
Ultra-low NOx and virtually no soot emissions.
-
Scalability to practically any size.
-
Multiple fuel flexibility (natural gas, alcohols etc.).
