Reply To: Using IVC calculator in dual fuel tutorial

[SVV]

Hi Usma,

You can check the composition of gasoline in the reference and in the tutorial to compare. For example, table 1 in reference gives the composition of gasoline used in the journal. When we have dual-fuel cases, in terms of the IVC Calculator one fuel can be specified as main fuel, and the other as Secondary fuel. In this case, gasoline (ic8h18) can be specified under Fuel, and diesel (nc7h16) can be specified as Secondary Fuel. ‘Dual fuel between injections’ is what we want for IVC specification, since the gasoline should be accounted in IVC but diesel injection is specified under Spray model.
