In order to make the simulation on tens of thousands of processors possible, Stefan Kerkemeier, a doctoral student at LAV, and Paul Fischer from ANL optimized and further expanded the code over the ...

Researchers use Direct Numerical Simulations to enhance efficiency, reduce pollution in diesel engines. A "cool flame" may sound contradictory, but it's an important element of diesel combustion -- ...

In this video from PASC18, Saumil Patel from Argonne describes his poster: A low-Mach simulation of flow and heat transfer in a motored internal combustion engine using the spectral element method. A ...

Large eddy simulation (LES) has emerged as an indispensable numerical technique for elucidating the complex phenomena inherent in combustion and pool fires. By resolving the larger turbulent ...

MUNICH, Germany — Future engine management systems will be based on the pressure measured in the combustion engine's cylinders and will use variable valve control, for example. This major new ...

In this episode of Let’s Talk Exascale, Jackie Chen from Sandia National Laboratories describes the Combustion-Pele project, which uses predictive simulation for the development of cleaner-burning ...

As automotive engineers push back the boundaries of combustion, an increasing number of studies are being carried out in the virtual world. The use of in-cylinder computational fluid dynamics (CFD) ...

Blue Origin chief Jeff Bezos offered an update today about the aerospace company’s development of its BE-4 combustion rocket engine, which will eventually eliminate America’s reliance on the ...

You've probably noticed that it costs you more to fill the gas tank of your car than a year ago. There are many reasons for this, but it's important to remember that 85 percent of U.S. energy needs ...

In the United States, the use of natural gas for electricity generation continues to grow. The driving forces behind this development? A boom in domestic natural gas production, historically low ...

LIVERMORE, Calif. -- A "cool flame" may sound contradictory, but it's an important element of diesel combustion -- one that, once properly understood, could enable better engine designs with higher ...
