Flame ionization testing in an internal combustion engine to measure the speed of the flame for gaseous fuels

The study was carried for combustion ionization flame testing on a K3-VE engine cylinder head. The main purpose of this experiment is to measure the speed of flame by using multiple ionization (ION) probe systems. The main purpose is to determine the feedback from the probe for engine control system...
