A Comparison of the Particulate Composition Between Turbocharged and Naturally Aspirated DI Diesel Engines

Abstract
A naturally aspirated Perkins 4-236 engine was compared with a similar turbocharged Perkins engine. The higher pressures and temperature of a turbocharged engine should make the pyrosynthesis of PAH more likely than for a NA engine and this was investigated using the fuel n-alkanes as tracers for th
