Abstract: Advanced combustion strategies, such as Homogeneous-Charge Compression-Ignition (HCCI) and Spark-Assisted HCCI or Spark-Assisted Compression-Ignition (SACI) hold considerable promise for improving engine efficiencies while maintaining low pollutant emissions, yet few models exist that accurately include the important chemical and physical mechanisms of these advanced combustion strategies. Further, experimental data from advanced combustion engine experiments are not well represented using conventional spark ignited analytical tools. This paper presents new methods for advanced combustion analysis that integrate previous analytical methods with new algorithms to capture the unique features of advanced combustion strategies like SACI.
