Scholar-generated biography
Pavlos Aleiferis is a researcher at Imperial College London focusing on combustion processes in internal combustion engines. His work explores fuel spray development, combustion mechanisms, and cyclic variations in lean-burn stratified-charge engines. He investigates the effects of fuel properties, such as ethanol, butanol, iso-octane, and gasoline, on spray formation, cavitation, and flash boiling. Aleiferis also examines flame development, chemiluminescence, and heat flux characteristics in direct-injection spark-ignition engines. His research includes large eddy simulations of turbulent gaseous jets and studies on deposit formation in diesel injectors. His work contributes to understanding fuel behavior under extreme conditions and improving engine efficiency and emissions.
