Mr Simon Dingle

Simon Dingle, a PhD. student of the School of Engineering and Design, discusses his research into the combustion of future fuels in downsized automotive engines. The research is focussed on improving the efficiency of future engine designs through more efficient combustion of both current petrol and future bio-ethanol. Downsized petrol engines are increasingly being seen as a key technology in improving both CO2 emissions and fuel consumption in passenger vehicles and the research being conducted at Brunel University is vital in advancing the understanding of how future fuels and lubricants will affect this technology.
