  • Abstract:
  • The increasing demand for diesel-powered transportation and industrial applications has raised concerns regarding fuel consumption, depletion of fossil fuels, and environmental pollution. Stringent emission regulations have motivated researchers to develop advanced combustion technologies that improve fuel efficiency while reducing harmful emissions. Among the various approaches, optimization of combustion chamber geometry, in-cylinder air motion, and fuel injection characteristics has emerged as a promising solution. This review paper examines the influence of combustion chamber design, particularly re-entrant combustion chambers, along with air swirl, squish, turbulence, injection pressure, injector nozzle geometry, and injection timing on diesel engine performance and emission characteristics. The findings indicate that enhanced air-fuel mixing achieved through optimized combustion chamber geometry and injection strategies can significantly reduce soot and hydrocarbon emissions while improving thermal efficiency. The review also highlights the need for further investigations on small and medium-sized diesel engines using advanced computational and experimental techniques.
