-
Applies diagnostic and imaging methods to reciprocating engines,
including phase Doppler particle analysis; laser Doppler velocimetry;
particle image velocimetry; and laser-induced flourescence to projects
in combustion, emissions, heat transfer, spray diagnostics, ceramics
and lubrication.
-
Initiates research in upgraded computational fluid models for spray
breakup, spray-wall impingement, engine heat transfer, combustion,
turbulence, intake flows and emissions.
-
Engages in diesel research funded by the Army and industry to increase
power density, enhance air utilization, improve fuel economy and lower
exhaust emissions.
-
Conducts small-engine research projects funded by the Wisconsin Small Engine Consortium and the state of Wisconsin to assist industry in
meeting emissions standards while improving fuel economy.
