Investigation of important semi-empirical heat transfer models for a natural gas-fueled HCCI engine

Homogeneous charge compression ignition engine is a promising alternative to traditional internal combustion engines mainly due to its high thermal efficiency, low NOx, and soot emissions. Heat transfer from gases to the combustion chamber walls has a significant effect on the combustion, performanc...
