A coupled 3-D CFD and detailed chemical kinetics model of free-piston engine generator (FPEG) was adopted to investigate the effects of initial parameters on homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion and emission. Biodiesel with 115 species skeletal mechanism was selected as fuel. Five different parameters, namely the initial pressure, the initial temperature, the working frequency, the compression ratio and the fuel equivalence ratio, were selected to analyze their influences in the HCCI combustion simulation of FPEG. The simulation results showed that the change of the five parameters had visible impact on the heat release rate of HCCI combustion, which caused the in-cylinder temperature and pressure to change, and also caused the emission content of NOx and SOOT to change obviously.

Accessing nowadays fossil fuel reserves requires a strain-based design approach. Within suchdesign, the ductile tearing resistance is a key parameter in assessing the defect tolerance. To determinethis tearing resistance, full scale (pressurized) tests can be performed. However, such approach would becostly and time consuming. Consequently, effort is made to select appropriate small scale test specimens.Most research has focused so far on the single edge notch bend (SENB) and tensile (SENT) specimen. Toevaluate the suitability of these test specimens, the crack tip stress fields can be examined or theresistance curves compared with full scale structures. This paper aims at comparing the trends observedusing these techniques. Furthermore, the suitability of the small scale test specimens is evaluated. It isconcluded that sufficiently long (length-to-width ratio equal to ten) clamped SENT specimens have thepotential to predict the tearing resistance of full scale pipes. In addition, the internal pressure does notsignificantly affect the fracture toughness. These conclusions are stated by both experimental results andfinite element simulations.
