A sequential port injection, lean-burn, fully electronically-controlled compressed natural gas (CNG)/diesel dual …-fuel engine has been developed based on a turbo-charged and inter-cooled direct injection (D.I.) diesel engine. During the … optimisation of engine overall performance, the effects of pilot diesel and premixed CNG/air mixture equivalence ratio on emissions …
