Based on a plug-in hybrid car equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged direct injection gasoline engine, this paper studies the emission and fuel consumption characteristics of the prototype vehicle under three different cycle conditions, WLTC city, WLTC and CLTC-P. The results show that for the four pollutants: CO, THC, NMHC and NOx, WLTC city cycle emissions are the largest, WLTC cycle emissions are the smallest, CLTC-P cycle emissions are the middle. For N2O, WLTC cycle has the largest combined emissions, CLTC-P cycle combined emissions are the smallest, and WLTC city cycle combined emissions are the center. The combined fuel consumption under WLTC city conditions is approximately 1.3 times the combined fuel consumption under the complete WLTC cycle. The combined fuel consumption under CLTC-P conditions is approximately 1.25 times that of the complete WLTC cycle. The first phase of each cycle is the phase with the highest emissions and fuel consumption.

Gasoline direct injection (GDI) spark ignition engine technology is advancing at a rapid rate. The development and optimization of GDI engines requires new experimental methods and numerical models to analyse the in-cylinder processes. Therefore the objective of this paper is to present numerical and experimental methods to analyse the combustion process in GDI engines. The numerical investigation of a four-stroke three-valve GDI engine was performed with the code KIVA-3V [1]. For the calculation of the turbulent combustion a model for partially premixed combustion, developed and implemented by Kech [4], was used. The results of the numerical investigation are compared to experimental results, obtained using an optical fibre technique in combination with spectroscopic temperature measurements under different engine conditions. This comparison shows good agreement in temporal progression of pressure. Both the numerical simulation and the experimental investigation predicted comparable combustion phenomena.
