Lean burn is an effective way to improve spark ignition engine fuel economy. In this paper, the combustion and emission characteristics
of a lean burn natural gas fuelled spark ignition engine were investigated at various throttle positions, fuel injection timings,
spark timings and air fuel ratios. The results show that ignition timings, the combustion duration, the coefficient of variation
(COV) of the indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP) and engine-out emissions are dependent on the overall air fuel ratio,
spark timings, throttle positions and fuel injection timings. With the increase of the air fuel ratio, the ignition delays
and combustion duration increases. Fuel injection timings affect ignition timings, combustion duration, IMEP, and the COV
of the IMEP. Late fuel injection timings can decrease the COV of the IMEP. Moreover, the change in the fuel injection timings
reduces the engine-out CO, total hydrocarbon (THC) emissions. Lean burn can significantly reduce NOx emissions, but it results
in high cyclic variations. 相似文献

There is an increasing interest in supercharging spark ignition engines operating on CNG (compressed natural gas) mainly due to its superior knock resisting properties. However, there is a penalty in volumetric efficiency when directly injecting the gaseous fuel at early and partial injection timings. The present work reports the combined effects of a small boost pressure and injection timing on performance and combustion of CNG fueled DI (direct injection) engine. The experimental tests were carried out on a 4-stroke DI spark ignition engine with a compression ratio of 14. Early injection timing, when inlet valves are still open (at 300°BTDC), and partial injection timing, in which part of the injection occurs after the inlet valves are closed (at 180°BTDC), were varied at each operating speed with variation of the boost pressure from 2.5 to 10 kPa. A narrow angle injector (NAI) was used to increase the mixing rate at engine speeds between 2000 and 5000 rpm. Similar experiments were conducted on a naturally aspirated engine and the results were then compared with that of the boosting system to examine the combined effects of boost pressure and injection timing. It was observed that boost pressure above 7.5 kPa resulted in an improvement of performance and combustion of CNG DI engine at all operating speeds. This was manifested in the faster heat release rates and mass fraction burned that in turn improved combustion efficiency of the boosting system. An increased in cylinder pressure and temperature was also observed with boost pressure compared to naturally aspirated engine. Moreover, the combustion duration was reduced due to concentration of the heat release near to the top dead center as the result of the boost pressure. Supercharging was also found to reduce the penalty of volumetric efficiency at both the simulated port and partial injection timings. 相似文献

Recently, to reduce environmental pollution and the waste of limited energy resources, there is an increasing requirement
for higher engine efficiency and lower levels of harmful emissions. A premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI) engine,
which uses a 2-stage type injection, has drawn attention because this combustion system can simultaneously reduce the amount
of NOx and PM exhausted from diesel engines. It is well known that the fuel injection timing and the spray angle in a PCCI
engine affect the mixture formation and the combustion. To acquire two optimal injection timings, the combustion and emission
characteristics of the PCCI engine were analyzed with various injection conditions. The flame visualization was performed
to validate the result obtained from the engine test. This study reveals that the optimum injection timings are BTDC 60° for
the first injection and ATDC 5° for the second injection. In addition, the injection ratio of 3 to 7 showed the best NOx and
PM emission results. 相似文献

Extensive usage of automobiles has certain disadvantages and one of them is its negative effect on environment. Carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and particulate matter (PM) come out as harmful products during incomplete combustion from internal combustion (IC) engines. As these substances affect human health, regulatory bodies impose increasingly stringent restrictions on the level of emissions coming out from IC engines. This trend suggests the urgent need for the investigation of all aspects relevant to emissions. It is required to modify existing engine technologies and to develop a better after-treatment system to achieve the upcoming emission norms. Diesel engines are generally preferred over gasoline engines due to their undisputed benefit of fuel economy and higher torque output. However, diesel engines produce higher emissions, particularly NOx and PM. Aftertreatment systems are costly and occupy more space, hence, in-cylinder solutions are preferred in reducing emissions. Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) technology has been utilized previously to reduce NOx. Though it is quite successful for small engines, problem persists with large bore engines and with high rate of EGR. EGR helps in reducing NOx, but increases particulate emissions and fuel consumption. Many in-cylinder solutions such as lower compression ratios, modified injection characteristics, improved air intake system etc. are required along with EGR to accomplish the future emission norms. Modern combustion techniques such as low temperature combustion (LTC), homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI), premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI) etc. would be helpful for reducing the exhaust emissions and improving the engine performance. However, controlling of autoignition timing and achieving wider operating range are the major challenges with these techniques. A comprehensive review of diesel engine performance and emission characteristics is given in this paper. 相似文献

Altitude has a significant effect on combustion of heavy-duty diesel engines, especially during cold start. An experimental study on a heavy-duty diesel engine operating at different altitudes was conducted. Tests were based on a direct injection (DI) turbocharged diesel engine with intake and exhaust pressure controlled by the plateau simulation test system to stimulate altitude conditions including 0 m, 1000 m, 2000 m, 3000 m and 4000 m. Results indicated that the compression and expansion resistance moment reduced and the speed increased during the cranking period. The peak pressure of several cycles was increased during the start-up period; however, the expansion pressure dropped more and the indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP) reduced as the altitude rose. While at an altitude of over 2000 m, the peak pressure fluctuated obviously during the start-up period. The higher the altitude was, the more the fluctuation amplitude and cycle number increased and combustion instability enhanced, which resulted the start-up period time increasing at high altitude. When the altitude rose, the cycle-to-cycle variation of the peak pressure and speed fluctuation increased during the idle, the ignition and CA50 were delayed and the combustion duration was shortened. The effect of altitude on combustion characteristics of the diesel engine was more significant during the start-up period than during its idle period. 相似文献

The in-cylinder RGF (residual gas fraction) of internal combustion engines for new combustion concepts, such as CAI (controlled
auto ignition) or HCCI (homogenous charged compression ignition), is a major parameter that affects the combustion characteristics.
Thus, measurement or prediction of the cycle-by-cycle RGF and investigation into the relation between the RGF and the combustion
phenomena are critical issues. However, on-line prediction of the cycle-by-cycle RGF during engine testing is not always practical
due to the requirement of expensive, fast response exhaust-gas analyzers and/or theoretical models that are just too slow
for application. In this study, an on-line model that can predict the RGF of each engine cycle and cylinder during the experiment
in the test cell has been developed. This enhanced model can predict the in-cylinder charge conditions of each engine cycle
during the test in three seconds by using the measured dynamic pressures of the intake, exhaust, and cylinder as the boundary
conditions. A Fortran77 code was generated to solve the 1-D MOC (method of characteristics). This code was linked to Labview
DAQ as a form of DLL (dynamic link library) to obtain three boundary pressures for each cycle. The model was verified at various
speeds and valve timings under the CAI mode by comparing the results with those of the commercial code, GT-Power. 相似文献

Previous research by the authors showed that hydrogen combustion exhibits a higher cooling loss to the combustion chamber wall of an internal combustion engine compared to hydrocarbon combustion because of its higher burning velocity and shorter quenching distance. The high cooling loss means that reduction of the cooling loss is essential to establish a high thermal efficiency in hydrogen combustion engines. This research analyzed the applicability of equations to describe the heat transfer from burning gases to hydrogen combustion. The result shows that equations calculate a lower cooling loss than experimental values, and the use of correction coefficients does not accurately define the actual cooling rate. It is therefore concluded that the derivation of a new heat transfer equation for hydrogen combustion is necessary to improve the thermal efficiency of hydrogen fuelled engines. 相似文献

Although premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI) combustion engines are praised for potentially high efficiency and clean
exhaust, experimental engines built to date emit more hydrocarbons (HCs) and carbon monoxide (CO) than the conventional machines.
These compounds are not only strictly controlled components of the exhaust gas of road vehicles but are also an energy loss
indicator. The prime objective of this study was to investigate the major sources of the HCs formed in the combustion chamber
of an experimental PCCI engine in order to suggest some effective technologies for HC reduction. In this study, to explore
the dominant sources of HC emissions in both operation modes, a single cylinder engine was prepared such that it could operate
using either conventional diesel combustion or PCCI combustion. Specifically, the contributions of the top-ring crevice volume
in the combustion chamber and the bulk quenching of the lean mixture were investigated. To understand the influence of the
shape and magnitude of the crevice on HC emissions, the engine was operated with 12 specially prepared pistons with different
top-ring crevices installed one after another. The engine emitted proportionally more HCs as the depth of the crevice increased
as long as the width remained narrower than the prevailing quench distance. The top-ring-crevice-originated exhaust HCs comprised
approximately 31% of the total HC emissions in the baseline condition. In a series of tests to estimate the effects of bulk
quench on exhaust HC emissions, intake air was heated from 300K to 400K in steps of 25K. With the intake air heated, HC and
CO emissions decreased with a gradually diminishing rate to zero at 375K. In conclusion, the most dominant sources of HC emissions
in PCCI engines were the crevice volumes in the combustion chamber and the bulk quenching of the lean mixtures. The key methods
for reducing HC emissions in PCCI engines are minimizing crevice volume in the combustion chamber and maximizing intake air
temperature allowed based on the permissible NOx level. 相似文献

For realizing a premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI) engine, the effects of bio-ethanol blend oil and exhaust gas recirculation
(EGR) on PM-NOx trade-off have been investigated in a single cylinder direct injection diesel engine with the compression
ratio of 17.8. In the present experiment, the ethanol blend ratio and the EGR ratio were varied focusing on ignition delay,
premixed combustion, diffusive combustion, smoke, NOx and the thermal efficiency. Very low levels of 1.5 [g/kWh] NOx and 0.02
[g/kWh] PM, which is close to the 2009 emission standards imposed on heavy duty diesel engines in Japan, were achieved without
deterioration of the thermal efficiency in the PCCI engine operated with the 50% ethanol blend fuel and the EGR ratio of 0.2.
It is found that this improvement can be achieved by formation of the premixed charge condition resulting from a longer ignition
delay. A marked increase in ignition delay is due to blending ethanol with low cetane number and large latent heat, and due
to lowering in-cylinder gas temperature on compression stroke based on the EGR. It is noticed that smoke can be reduced even
by increasing the EGR ratio under a highly premixed condition. 相似文献

Most of hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions from automotive DI Diesel engines are produced during the engine
warm-up period and are primarily caused by difficulties in obtaining stable and efficient combustion under these conditions.
Furthermore, the contribution of engine starting to these emissions is not negligible; since this operating condition is highly
unfavorable for the combustion progress. Additionally, the catalytic converter is ineffective due to the low engine temperature.
In conjunction with adequate engine settings (fuel injection and fresh air control), either the glow plugs or the intake air
heater are activated during a portion of the engine warm-up period, so that a nominal engine temperatures is reached faster,
and the impact of these difficulties is minimized. Measurement of gaseous pollutants during engine warm-up is currently possible
with detectors used in standard exhaust gas analyzers (EGA), which have response times well-suited for sampling at such transient
conditions. However, these devices are not suitable for the measurement of exhaust emissions produced during extremely short
time intervals, such as engine starting. Herein, we present a methodology for the measurement of the cumulative pollutant
emissions during the starting phase of passenger car DI Diesel engines, with the goal of overcoming this limitation by taking
advantage of standard detectors. In the proposed method, a warm canister is filled with an exhaust gas sample at constant
volumetric flow, during a time period that depends on the engine starting time; the gas concentration in the canister is later
evaluated with a standard EGA. When compared with direct pollutant measurements performed with a state-of-art EGA, the proposed
procedure was found to be more sensitive to combustion changes and provided more reliable data. 相似文献

The demand for reduced pollutant emissions has motivated various technological advances in passenger car diesel engines. This
paper presents a study comparing two fuel injection systems and analyzing their combustion noise and pollutant emissions.
The abilities of different injection strategies to meet strict regulations were evaluated. The difficult task of maintaining
a constant specific fuel consumption while trying to reduce pollutant emissions was the aim of this study. The engine being
tested was a 0.287-liter single-cylinder engine equipped with a common-rail injection system. A solenoid and a piezoelectric
injector were tested in the engine. The engine was operated under low load conditions using two injection events, high EGR
rates, no swirl, three injection pressures and eight different dwell times. Four injector nozzles with approximately the same
fuel injection rate were tested using the solenoid injection system (10 and 12 orifice configuration) and piezoelectric system
(6 and 12 orifice design). The injection system had a significant influence on pollutant emissions and combustion noise. The
piezoelectric injector presented the best characteristics for future studies since it allows for shorter injection durations
and greater precision, which means smaller fuel mass deliveries with faster responses. 相似文献
