Researchers use Direct Numerical Simulations to enhance efficiency, reduce pollution in diesel engines. A "cool flame" may sound contradictory, but it's an important element of diesel combustion -- ...

The flow is away from the viewer, from the lower left to the upper right. The Reynolds number based on momentum thickness at the midpoint of the volume is 700. A passive scalar has been introduced ...

Sandia National Laboratories scientist Rémi Dingreville has co-developed a way to speed up virtually any kind of computer simulation, a ubiquitous research tool across science and industry.

LIVERMORE, Calif. -- A "cool flame" may sound contradictory, but it's an important element of diesel combustion -- one that, once properly understood, could enable better engine designs with higher ...
