Dr. Dempsey's work explores advanced combustion strategies like prechamber ignition, mixing-controlled combustion, and reactivity-controlled compression ignition (RCCI) to enhance engine efficiency and sustainability. His research spans conventional and alternative fuels (e.g., ethanol, natural gas, methanol) and emphasizes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations for turbulent reacting flows.
Recent publications highlight his focus on ultra-low methane emissions in natural gas engines, ethanol combustion optimization, and fuel-agnostic combustion technologies. Key trends include soot formation modeling, ignition chemistry, and environmental impact reduction via innovative combustion strategies. His work bridges experimental validation and computational analysis.
Dr. Dempsey's contributions include developing phenomenological autoignition models and evaluating thermodynamic merits of future engine strategies. He has collaborated on studies involving particulate matter characterization and hydrocarbon emissions in heavy-duty diesel engines.
