TY - JOUR T1 - Influence of swirl, tumble and squish flows on combustion characteristics and emissions in internal combustion engine- review AU - Kaplan, Mahmut PY - 2024 DA - September Y2 - 2024 DO - 10.18245/ijaet.1495032 JF - International Journal of Automotive Engineering and Technologies PB - Murat CİNİVİZ WT - DergiPark SN - 2146-9067 SP - 143 EP - 143 VL - 13 IS - 3 LA - en AB - This study gives an overview of available literature on flow patterns such as swirl, tumble and squish in internal combustion engines and their impacts of turbulence enhancement, combustion efficiency and emission reduction. Characteristics of in-cylinder flows are summarized. Different design approaches to generate these flows such as directed ports, helical ports, valve shrouding and masking, modifying piston surface, flow blockages and vanes are described. How turbulence produced by swirl, tumble and squish flows are discussed. Effects of the organized flows on combustion parameters and exhaust emission are outlined. This review reveals that the recent investigations on the swirl, tumble and squish flows are generally related to improving in-cylinder turbulence. Thus, more experimental and numerical studies including the impacts of this organized flows on turbulence production, combustion behavior and pollutant formation inside the cylinder are needed.
