Abstract
Calculation of rates of heat release from engine fuels provides a useful diagnostic tool. As one example, thetechnique was useful in discovering that retarding injection timing will reduce the proportion of premixed combustion andthereby reduce NOx emissions from a diesel engine. The technique for calculating heat release rates was proposed morethan 30 years ago. Initially a cumbersome technique, it has been simplified over the years. In the present work, the authorpresents equations which allow calculation of heat release rates within a spread sheet.
