Additional information

This paper presents the physics of atomization and combustion of a high ethanol content fuel (E85) in comparison to gasoline in a direct-injection spark-ignition optical engine. The analysis involved quantitative data obtained from experiments and linked with current theories. It was ‘3rd hottest paper’ of Combustion & Flame in 2010 and it appears consistently in the most downloaded papers (First, July-2012 to September-2012). This is the leading international journal on the fundamentals of combustion systems. Work supported financially and technically by Ford UK and Germany (Jon Caine, jcaine1@ford.com; Martin Wirth, mwirth1@ford.com); the results were incorporated in Ford’s engine operation strategies.
