The Combustion Research Lab specializes in optimizing and restructuring combustion processes to minimize or eliminate after-treatment requirements for internal combustion engines and industrial burners utilizing both premixed and non-premixed flames. The facility conducts both experimental studies and computational modeling, employing Star-CD software for 3D simulations alongside GT Power and AVL Boost for one-dimensional analyses.

Our team advances combustion technology through three key components:
High-intensity, small-scale (HISS) turbulent mixing of fuel and air
Fuel blending with exhaust gases (EGR) or partial oxidation products to enable fuel reformation
Air mixing with combustion byproducts (EGR) or partial oxidation products in HISS flows
Cutting-edge equipment includes:
HCCI and split-cycle engine test stands with dynamometers
In-cylinder pressure measurement systems for engine performance evaluation and combustion timing studies
Emission analysis stations for exhaust gas profiling, along with instrumented flame propagation setups featuring high-speed imaging
A distinctive multi-coflow inverse flame burner system
