This volume includes versions of papers selected from those
presented at the THIESEL 2000 Conference on Thermofluidynamic
Processes in Diesel Engines, held at the Universidad Politecnica de
Valencia, during the period of September th th 13 to 15 , 2000. The
papers are grouped into seven thematic areas: State of the Art and
Prospective, Fuels for Diesel Engines, Injection System and Spray
Formation, Combustion and Pollutant Formation, Modelling,
Experimental Techniques, and Air Management. These areas cover most
of the technologies and research strategies that may allow Light
Duty and Heavy Duty Diesel engines to comply with current and
forthcoming emission standards, while maintaining or improving fuel
consumption. The main objectives of the conference were to bring
together ideas and experience from Industry and Universities to
facilitate interchange of information and to promote discussion of
future research and development needs. The technical papers
emphasised the use diagnostic and simulation techniques and their
relationship to engineering practice and the advancement of the
Diesel engine. We hope that this approach, which proved to be
successful at the Conference, is reflected in this volume. We thank
all those who contributed to the success of the Conference, and
particularly the members of the Advisory Committee who assessed
abstracts and chaired many of the technical sessions. Weare also
grateful to participants who presented their work or contributed to
the many discussions. Finally, the Conference benefitted from
financial support from the organisations listed below and we are
glad to have this opportunity to record our gratitude.
This is the second book edited with a selection of papers from the
two-yearly THIESEL Conference on Thermo- and Fluid Dynamic
Processes in Diesel Engines, organised by CMT-Mvtores Termicos of
the Universidad Po/itecnica de Valencia, Spain. This volume
includes versions of papers selected from those presented at the
THIESEL 2002 Conference th held on lOth to 13 September 2002. We
hope it will be the second volume of a long series reflecting the
quality of the THIESEL Conference. This year, the papers are
grouped in six main thematic areas: State of the Art and
Prospective, Injection Systems and Spray Formation, Combustion and
Emissions, Engine Modelling, Alternative Combustion Concepts and
Experimental Techniques. The actual conference covered a wider
scope of topics, including Air Management and Fuels for Diesel
Engines and a couple of papers included reflect this variety.
However, the selection of papers published here represents the most
current preoccupations of Diesel engine designers, namely how to
improve the combustion process using new injection strategies and
alternative concepts such as the Homogeneous Charge Combustion
Ignition.

The papers collected in this volume address all aspects related to thermofluidynamic processses in Diesel engines, from basic studies aiming to obtain a better understanding of the physical processes underlying diesel engine operation, to the real day-to-day problems associated with engine development. The topics covered comprise: Air management, injection systems, spray development and air interaction, combustion and pollutant formation, emission control strategies, and new concepts.
