Alternate Fuels and Internal Combustion Engine

The alternate fuels and internal combustion engine area aims to develop state-of-art experiments related to Internal Combustion Engines and vehicles apart from Emission and engine related Tribological Investigations. The dedicated engine research laboratory paves the way for a balanced development of this front-line area of research, which has several fully instrumented single and multi-cylinder engine test benches for different types of engines/dynamometers. Current research topics include Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) for in-cylinder flow visualization, Phase Doppler Interferrometry (PDI) for spray characterization, combustion visualization and optical diagnostics, Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI), HCCI/PCCI of gasoline and diesel like fuels, Engine Noise and vibration, Laser Ignition of CNG and hydrogen.
