One-Dimensional Simulation of the Combustion Process in an Engine Cylinder with Ethanol

The diesel engine is one of the most important engines for road vehicles. The engine nowadays operates with different kinds of alternative fuels, such as natural gas and biofuel. The aim of this article is to study the combustion process that occurs in an engine cylinder of a diesel engine when usin...
