A new turbocharging system, named automatically variable intake exhaust injection timing (AVIEIT), is proposed. Its main purpose is to improve the performance of low-speed high torque operating conditions and improve the economy of high-speed operating conditions for high-speed supercharged intercooled diesel engines. The principle of the AVIEIT turbocharging system is presented. A control mechanism for the proposed AVIEIT system used for a truck diesel engine is introduced. An engine simulation code has been developed. In this code, a zero-dimensional in-cylinder combustion model, a one-dimensional finite volume method-total variation diminishing model for unsteady gas flow in the intake and exhaust manifolds, and a turbocharger model are used. The developed code is used to simulate the performances of diesel engines using the AVIEIT system. Simulations of a military use diesel engine “12V150” and a truck diesel engine “D6114” using the AVIEIT system have been performed. Simulation results show that the in-cylinder charge air amount of the diesel engine with the AVIEIT system is increased at low-speed high torque operating conditions, and the fuel economy is improved at high-speed operating conditions. In order to test the idea of the AVIEIT system, an experiment on a truck diesel engine D6114 equipped with an AVIEIT control mechanism has been finished. The experiment results show that the AVIEIT system can improve the economy of high-speed operating conditions. Both the simulation and experiment results suggest that the AVIEIT system has the potential to replace the waste-gate and variable geometry turbocharger turbocharging systems.

Injection Model

The paper presents a performance prediction model of marine low-speed two-stroke diesel engines based on an advanced MCC (mixture controlled combustion) model coupled with a fuel injection model. Considering the time of real calculation, the so-called “concentrated exhausting gas” scavenging model and the working process model are used in the present work, and improved by introducing the ratio of pure combustion product over the total gas mass in the cylinder as an expression of the working medium components. The reaction rate model in the zero-dimensional MCC model is improved by introducing the fraction of combustion product in the fuel spray, and the relationship between the combustion model and scavenging quality is established. Meanwhile, the combustion model was simplified in the diffusion combustion phases and integrated with the fuel injection model in order to respond to the change of injection profile and injection timing. A large-scale low-speed marine diesel engine was used for a simulation. The results of the whole model are consistent with experimental data and the speed of calculation is fast enough for real time simulation of low speed and medium speed diesel engines. The prediction model can be used in the design and calibration of the electronic control system and performance optimization of the marine two-stroke diesel engine.

Performance And Emission

For economic and social development of any country energy is one of the most essential requirements. Continuously increasing price of crude petroleum fuels in the present days coupled with alarming emissions and stringent emission regulations has led to growing attention towards use of alternative fuels like vegetable oils, alcoholic and gaseous fuels for diesel engine applications. Use of such fuels can ease the burden on the economy by curtailing the fuel imports. Diesel engines are highly efficient and the main problems associated with them is their high smoke and NOx emissions.  Hence there is an urgent need to promote the use of alternative fuels in place of high speed diesel (HSD) as substitute. India has a large agriculture base that can be used as a feed stock to obtain newer fuel which is renewable and sustainable. Accordingly Uppage oil methyl ester (UOME) biodiesel was selected as an alternative fuel. Use of biodiesels in diesel engines fitted with mechanical fuel injection systems has limitation on the injector opening pressure (300 bar). CRDI system can overcome this drawback by injecting fuel at very high pressures (1500-2500 bar) and is most suitable for biodiesel fuels which are high viscous. This paper presents the performance and emission characteristics of a CRDI diesel engine fuelled with UOME biodiesel at different injection timings and injection pressures. From the experimental evidence it was revealed that UOME biodiesel yielded overall better performance with reduced emissions at retarded injection timing of -10° BTDC in CRDI mode of engine operation.

An optically accessible high-speed direct-injection diesel engine was used to study the effects of injection angles on low-sooting combustion. A digital high-speed camera was employed to capture the entire cycle combustion and spray evolution processes under seven operating conditions including post-top-dead centre (TDC) injection and pre-TDC injection strategies. The nitrogen oxide (NO x) emissions were also measured in the exhaust pipe. In-cylinder pressure data and heat release rate calculations were conducted. All the cases show premixed combustion features. For post-TDC injection cases, a large amount of fuel deposition is seen for a narrower-injection-angle tip, i.e. the 70° tip, and ignition is observed near the injector tip in the centre of the bowl, while for a wider-injection-angle tip, namely a 110° tip, ignition occurs near the spray tip in the vicinity of the bowl wall. The combustion flame is near the bowl wall and at the central region of the bowl for the 70° tip. However, the flame is more distributed and centralized for the 110° tip. Longer spray penetration is found for the pre-TDC injection timing cases. Liquid fuel impinges on the bowl wall or on the piston top and a fuel film is formed. Ignition for all the pre-TDC injection cases occur in a distributed way in the piston bowl. Two different combustion modes are observed for the pre-TDC injection cases including a homogeneous bulky combustion flame at earlier crank angles and a heterogeneous film combustion mode with luminous sooting flame at later crank angles. In terms of soot emissions, NO x emissions, and fuel efficiency, results show that the late post-TDC injection strategy gives the best performance.

Starting Conditions

Advance high speed direct injection diesel engines apply high injection pressures, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), injection timing and swirl ratios to control the combustion process in order to meet the strict emission standards. All these parameters affect, in different ways, the ignition delay (ID) which has an impact on premixed, mixing controlled and diffusion controlled combustion fractions and the resulting engine-out emissions. In this study, the authors derive a new correlation to predict the ID under the different operating conditions in advanced diesel engines. The model results are validated by experimental data in a single-cylinder, direct injection diesel engine equipped with a common rail injection system at different speeds, loads, EGR ratios and swirl ratios. Also, the model is used to predict the performance of two other diesel engines under cold starting conditions.

Abstract Modern Diesel engines have become highly complex multi-input multi-output systems. Controls of modern Diesel engines to meet various requirements such as high fuel efficiency and low NOx and particulate matter (PM) emissions, remain a great challenge for automotive control community. While model-based controls have demonstrated significant potentials in achieving high Diesel engine performance. Complete and high-fidelity control-oriented Diesel engine models are much needed as the foundations of model-based control system development. In this study, a semi-physical, mean-value control-oriented model of a turbocharged Diesel engine equipped with high-pressure exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) is developed and experimentally validated. The static calibration of Diesel engine model is achieved with the least-square optimization methodology using the experimental test data from a physical Diesel engine platform. The normalized root mean square errors (NRMSEs) of the calibration results are in the range of 0.1095 to 0.2582. The cross-validation results demonstrated that the model was capable of accurately capturing the engine torque output and NOx emissions with the control inputs of EGR, VGT and Start of Injection timing (SOI) in wide-range operating conditions.

Pulse Converter

In order to improve fuel efficiency and power density, the boost pressure of diesel engine is increasing continuously. The increase in boost level leads to some problems, such as lack of air under part load operating conditions, response delay during transient processes, and high mechanical and thermal load. In order to meet the high boost level demand, a new type of turbocharging system—mixed pulse converter (MIXPC) turbo-charging system for multicylinder diesel engines (from 4 to 20 cylinders) has been invented. A turbocharged diesel engine simulation model, based on one-dimensional finite volume method (FVM) and total variation diminishing (TVD) scheme, has been developed and used to design and analyze the MIXPC turbocharging system. The applications of MIXPC system in in-line 8- and 4-cylinder and V-type 16-cylinder medium-speed marine diesel engines have been studied by calculation and experiments. The results show that the invented MIXPC system has superior engine fuel efficiency and thermal load compared with original turbocharging systems.

The paper analyzes the operations of a small high speed direct injection (HSDI) turbocharged diesel engine by means of a parallel experimental and computational investigation. As far as the numerical approach is concerned, an in-house 1D research code for the simulation of the whole engine system has been enhanced by the introduction of a multizone quasi-dimensional combustion model, tailored for multijet direct injection diesel engines. This model takes into account the most relevant issues of the combustion process: spray development, air-fuel mixing, ignition, and formation of the main pollutant species (nitrogen oxide and particulate). The prediction of the spray basic patterns requires previous knowledge of the fuel injection rate. Since the direct measure of this quantity at each operating condition is not a very practical proceeding, an empirical model has been developed in order to provide reasonably accurate injection laws from a few experimental characteristic curves. The results of the simulation at full load are compared to experiments, showing a good agreement on brake performance and emissions. Furthermore, the combustion model tuned at full load has been applied to the analysis of some operating conditions at partial load, without any change to the calibration parameters. Still, the numerical simulation provided results that qualitatively agree with experiments.

A numerical study was conducted to investigate combustion and emission characteristics in a high-speed direct-injection engine with a common-rail injection system under various operating conditions. In order to analyse the combustion characteristics, several models were used in this study. They were the renormalization group k– ε model, the hybrid Kelvin—Helmholtz (wave) and the Rayleigh—Taylor model, the shell auto-ignition model, and the laminar and turbulent characteristic timescale combustion model. The prediction of exhaust emissions was conducted using nitrogen oxide NO x formation with an extended Zel'dovich mechanism and Hiroyasu soot formation with the Nagle—Strickland-Constable oxidation model respectively. Experimental combustion and emission characteristics were compared with calculated results under various operating conditions, such as injection timing, injection pressure, fuel mass, and engine speed. The calculated results show similar patterns to the experimental results in the cylinder pressure and the rate of heat release. In the emissions characteristics, NO x emission decreased as injection timing was retarded and the NO x and soot amounts increased with the increase in the injected fuel mass. The calculated soot trends for various injection timings showed different patterns from the experimental trends as the injection timing were retarded.

A multi-point low-pressure methanol injection system was installed on manifold of a four cylinder turbocharged diesel engine, and the experiments on the engine operated with intake premixed methanol were conducted under wide operating conditions. The influence of the engine operating conditions on premixed methanol quantity was analyzed. The results show that, compared with straight diesel model, premixed methanol prolongs the ignition delay time of pilot diesel at the engine high load with low speed, and more methanol quantity can be premixed. At more than medium load with high speed, diesel ignition delay time with premixed methanol is shorter than with straight diesel model, and substitution ratio of methanol for diesel is significantly lower than that of low speed. Compared with the straight diesel mode at high speed, the fuel economy of the dual fueling mode is better, and NOx and soot emissions also are decreased, but CO and HC emissions are increased.
