Cooperative Agreement DEEE0009199

This $199,990 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports a research study to develop a simple method for quantifying soot production rates of relevant fuels. The study aims to establish opposed jet gaseous diffusion flames doped with common jet and diesel fuel components, measure soot volume fraction through pyrometry, and numerically simulate the flame structure to accurately quantify soot production rates. The goal is to create a...

This Cooperative Agreement, awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy under the Conservation Research and Development federal grant program (CFDA 81.086), provides $3,167,737 to Clemson University for the development and demonstration of a medium-duty off-road engine powered by renewable dimethyl ether (DME) with ultra-low NOx emissions. The key objectives are to develop a transient-capable medium-duty off-road engine that can operate on DME...
