Multifuel Engine Combustion Study

[Katahdin]

Figured the Alternate Fuels forum is a good home for this.

This 5mb PDF document is a study on multifuel combustion in both spark plug and compression based multifuel engines. It covers the M.A.N. combustion chamber from which the LD-427 and 465 family engines are derived.

Interesting to note that combustion of synthentic based fuels and lubricating oils is mentioned as a required demand for multifuel engines.

This report is written by a "Professor of Combustion" and is very technical-- probably more then you wanted or needed to know. That said, enjoy!

Thanks for that titbit

Thank you for that. seems to support STEADY and consistant driving RPMs, which is good for these engines. I drive at 2000 rpm. Never exeed 2250. everything hums allong fine.
