With the improvements in Diesel engine injection systems, the fueling-path, which is more accurate, flexible, and faster than the air-path, can be actively utilized in conventional and advanced combustion mode controls, especially for enhancing the combustion transient performance. In this paper, fuel injection split models are proposed to describe the relationship between fuel split ratio and two combustion outputs, i.e., the crank angle at 50% heat released (CA50) and the indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP). The model parameters are related to the engine in-cylinder thermal boundary conditions, referred to as the in-cylinder conditions (ICCs). The models were verified by engine experimental data with identical and different ICCs under different engine operating conditions. Such models can be potentially utilized in active fueling control for Diesel engine combustion control, and therefore benefit engine fuel efficiency and reduce engine-out emissions.

The fuel efficiency of a modern diesel engine has decreased due to the recent revisions to emission standards. For an engine fuel economy, the engine speed is to be optimum for an exact throttle opening (TO) position. This work presents an analysis of throttle opening variation impact on a multi-cylinder, direct injection diesel engine with the aid of Second Law of thermodynamics. For this purpose, the engine is run for different throttle openings with several load and speed variations. At a steady engine loading condition, variation in the throttle openings has resulted in different engine speeds. The Second Law analysis, also called ‘Exergy’ analysis, is performed for these different engine speeds at their throttle positions. The Second Law analysis includes brake work, coolant heat transfer, exhaust losses, exergy efficiency, and airfuel ratio. The availability analysis is performed for 70%, 80%, and 90% loads of engine maximum power condition with 50%, 75%, and 100% TO variations. The data are recorded using a computerized engine test unit. Results indicate that the optimum engine operating conditions for 70%, 80% and 90% engine loads are 2000 rpm at 50% TO, 2300 rpm at 75% TO and 3250 rpm at 100% TO respectively.

The optimal values of the diesel engine parameters in various modes of operation are determined.

Stringent emission regulations (e.g., Euro-6) force automotive manufacturers to equip DPF (diesel particulate filter) on diesel cars. Generally, post injection is used as a method to regenerate DPF. However, it is known that post injection deteriorates specific fuel consumption and causes oil dilution for some operating conditions. Thus, an injection strategy for regeneration becomes one of key technologies for diesel powertrain equipped with a DPF. This paper presents correlations between fuel injection strategy and exhaust gas temperature for DPF regeneration. Experimental apparatus consists of a single cylinder diesel engine, a DC dynamometer, an emission test bench, and an engine control system. In the present study, post injection timing covers from 40 deg aTDC to 110 deg aTDC and double post injection was considered. In addition, effects of injection pressures were investigated. The engine load was varied from low-load to mid-load and fuel amount of post injection was increased up to 10mg/stk. Oil dilution during fuel injection and combustion processes were estimated by diesel loss measured by comparing two global equivalences ratios; one is measured from Lambda sensor installed at exhaust port, the other one is estimated from intake air mass and injected fuel mass. In the present study, the differences in global equivalence ratios were mainly caused from oil dilution during post injection. The experimental results of the present study suggest an optimal engine operating conditions including fuel injection strategy to get appropriate exhaust gas temperature for DPF regeneration. Experimental results of exhaust gas temperature distributions for various engine operating conditions were summarized. In addition, it was revealed that amounts of oil dilution were reduced by splitting post injection (i.e., double post injection). Effects of injection pressure on exhaust gas temperature were dependent on combustion phasing and injection strategies.

This article takes the diesel thermal system as the research object, which simplifies the diesel engine system into four subsystems. This article conducts a thermodynamic analysis of the specific equipment of the host thermal system. Simulink tools in MATLAB are used to build simulation models of specific equipment in the thermal system, and a modular model is used to build a subsystem model based on the specific equipment model. Then, the thermal coupling relationship between the subsystems is used to form the thermal system. The overall model obtains the temperature values of the key nodes of the thermal system network, so that it can predict the temperature changes of the thermal pipeline system nodes of the diesel engine under various operating conditions.

Operating conditions dependent large pressure variations are one of the working characteristics of combination electronic unit pump (CEUP) fuel injection system for diesel engines. We propose a precise and accurate nonlinear numerical model of pressure inside HP fuel pipeline of CEUP using wave equation (WE) including both viscous and frequency dependent frictions. We have proved that developed hyperbolic approximation gives more realistic description of pressure wave as compared to classical viscous damped wave equation. Frictional effects of various frequencies on pressure wave have been averaged out across valid frequencies to represent the combined effect of all frequencies on pressure wave. Dynamic variations of key fuel properties including density, acoustic wave speed, and bulk modulus with varying pressures have also been incorporated. Based on developed model we present analysis on effect of fuel pipeline length on pressure wave propagation and variation of key fuel properties with both conventional diesel and alternate fuel rapeseed methyl ester (RME) for CEUP pipeline.

Diesel engine fuel injection control is presented as a feedback based online optimization problem. Extremum seeking (ES) approach is used to address the online optimization formulation. The cost function is synthesized from extensive experimental investigations such that the indicated thermal efficiency of the engine is maximized while minimizing the NOx emissions under external boundary conditions. Knowledge of the physical combustion and emission formation process based on a pre-calibrated non-linear engine model output is used to determine the ES initial control input to minimize the seeking time. The control is demonstrated on a hardware-in-the-loop engine simulator bench.

In this paper, in order to handle the nonlinear system and the sophisticated disturbance in the marine engine, a finite-time convergence control method is proposed for the diesel engine rotating speed control. First, the mean value model is established for the diesel engine, which can represent response of engine fuel injection to engine speed. Then, in order to deal with parameter perturbation and load disturbance of the marine diesel engine, a finite-time convergence active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) is proposed. At the last, simulation experiments are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed controller under the different load disturbances for the 7RT-Flex60C marine diesel engine. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed control scheme has better control effect and stronger anti-interference ability than the linear ADRC.

In order to improve the performance of the diesel engine, the original engine fuel injection advance angle is optimized, and a new advance angle of fuel injection is proposed in this paper. By numerical calculation with simulation of software FIRE, the effect of different combustion chamber structures on the cylinder pressure, temperature, accumulated heat release and the parameters such as NOx mass fraction was analyzed. From the simulation results, the optimized fuel injection advance angle had greatly improved the diesel combustion and emission performance. Finally, via experimental verification, the engine with optimized fuel injection advance angle has better dynamic performance, as well as less emission than original machine.
