The Influence of Fuels on the Performance of Modern CI Engines and Environmental Pollution

Dear Colleagues,

The Guest Editor is inviting submissions to a Special Issue of Energies on the subject of “Fuel Pretreatment Systems in Modern CI Engines’”. The atomization of fuel in the engine compartment plays an important role in the combustion processes in a CI engine. The elements responsible for supplying fuel to the engine combustion chamber are the injectors and the injection pump. The influence of fuel preparation on engine performance, durability, and reliability of injection pumps and injectors is significant.

This Special Issue will focus on novel techniques for determining the influence of various fuels (e.g., vegetable) and methods for their preparation on the wear of modern injection units and engine performance. This Special Issue will focus on, but is not limited to, the following themes:

• Fuel pretreatment systems;
• Modern CI engines;
• Environment pollution;
• Emission of toxic substances from engines;
• Power supply for engines;
• Engines injection systems;
• Engine control.

Prof. Dr. Karol F. Abramek

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
