However, the pertinence of the simulation depends on the accuracy of the heat transfer model. In fact, an important part of the fuel energy is transformed to heat loss from the chamber walls. Also, knock appearance is closely related to heat exchange. However, in the previous studies using two-zone models, many choices are made for heat transfer evaluation and no choice influence study has been carried out, in the literature. The current study aims to investigate the effect of the choice of both the heat transfer correlation and burned zone heat transfer area calculation method and provide an optimized choice for a more efficient two-zone thermodynamic model, in the case of natural gas SI engines. For this purpose, a computer simulation is developed. Experimental measurements are carried out for comparison and validation. The effect of correlation choice has been first studied. The most known correlations have been tested and compared. Our experimental pressure results, supported for more general and reliable conclusions, by a literature survey of many other studies, based on measured heat transfer rates for several SI engines, are used for correlation selection. It is found that Hohenberg’s correlation is the best choice. However, the influence of the burned zone heat transfer area calculation method is negligibleItem Performance, combustion and exhaust emissions characteristics investigation using Citrullus colocynthis L. biodiesel in DI diesel engine(Elsevier, 2017) Alloune, R.; Balistrou, Mourad; Awad, S.; Loubar, K.; Tazerout, M.Item Thermal efficiency improvement of a solar desalination process by parabolic trough collector(IWA Publishing, 2021) Bellatreche, Randha; Ouali, Maamar; Balistrou, Mourad; Tassalit, DjilaliNexus water/energy security is one of the main global challenges for the future generation. Solar distillation (thermal process) represents a sustainable solution to water shortages and energy crisis in the world especially in the Middle East and North Africa region. The technique is based on a evaporation–condensation process via heat delivery through a cylindrical parabolic collector to a thermal energy storage, in the form of sand integrated into the solar still, to maximize water production efficiencies. It is a technically feasible and operational method. Results suggest that the additional solar collector flux has a direct impact on the increase in average sand and seawater temperature particularly over the period between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m. Seawater temperature increases by >26.6%. The energy stored quantity delivered for the distiller basin grows proportionality with the sand temperature, which is depending directly for the solar collector absorber temperature. The difference between the both temperatures defines a decreasing rate of −19%. The daily water production by the hybrid solar distiller is 6.5 l/day, it represents an increase of +91% compared to the traditional concrete solar still production (3.4 l/day), for the same geometry and meteorological conditionsItem Towards improvement of natural gas-diesel dual fuel mode : an experimental investigation on performance and exhaust emissions(Elsevier, 2014) Lounici, Mohand Said; Loubar, Khaled; Tarabet, Lyes; Balistrou, Mourad; Niculescu, Dan-Catalin; Tazerout, MohandItem Truck tire pyrolysis optimization using the self-produced carbon black as a catalyst(2017) Akkouche, N.; Balistrou, Mourad; Hachemi, M.; Himrane, N.; Loubar, K.; Tazerout, M.
