This paper presents the results of the diesel engine research on the indicator and heat realized diagrams for VW 1.9 TDI working in 2 modes: with standard, non-cooled EGR system, and without this system. All of measurement was carried out on the some engine speed – 2000 rpm (speed of maximum engine torque) and various engine load. Some of the analyzed parameters were read directly from the measurement systems (e.g. indicator diagrams) or engine controller (e.g. start of injection) and the rest of them had to be calculated. The calculation of rate of heat release (dQ/dα) was based on the well-known mathematical model. When the exhaust gas recirculation valve is open, the maximum of combustion pressure and rate of maximum kinetic heat release (dQk/dα)max are smaller than when the valve is closed. These facts are connected with the shorter self-combustion delay for engine working with EGR. But this is also associated with reduction of the rate of maximum diffusion heat release (dQd/dα)max, which means that more particulates (PM) are excreted into the atmosphere. This fact explains e.g. significantly higher smog of exhaust gases for diesel engine which works with EGR system. The analysis results show that exhaust gas recirculation system slightly deteriorates the energetic parameters of VW 1.9 TDI engine, but, at the same time, significantly reduces the level of toxic nitrogen oxides in exhaust gases

This paper presents the results of the diesel engine research on the energy performance, components of exhaust gases and smoke and parameters related to the supply system for VW 1.9 TDI working in 2 modes: with standard, non-cooled EGR system, and without this system. All of measurements were carried out on the some engine speed – 2000 rpm (speed of maximum engine torque) and various engine loads. It was found that the serial engine control unit switches the EGR system off above 150 Nm engine load (Momax = 295 Nm). In this range of load the engine running with EGR is characterized by higher fuel consumption (lower total efficiency) ca. 5%, compared with engine without EGR. Concentration of NOx in exhaust gases was lower up to 45% but, at the same time, exhaust gas smoke and concentration of carbon oxides were strongly increasing. It can be seen that EGR system increases the temperature (up to 110oC) and changes the composition of air-exhaust gas in the intake manifold. One of reason of this fact is self-changing start of injection. Additional effect of EGR is lower air pressure behind turbocharger, because the flow of exhaust gases (into EGR) is taken before the

AbstractIn recent years, engine emissions have been one of the important problems which are of great concern. Hence, there is a growing need to develop engines with reduced emission. In the present study, Variable Compression Ratio diesel engine model has been validated by comparing the simulation results with the experimental. The study is aimed at analyzing the effect of compression ratio, exhaust gas recirculation, fuel injection pressure and start of injection on engine performance and emission characteristics. Using composite desirability technique, the engine parameters have been optimized to achieve lower NOx, soot and ISFC. The optimum combination has been observed at Compression ratio 17.52, Start of injection −30.1 °aTDC, Fuel injection pressure 736.06 bar and Exhaust gas recirculation 28.29%. ISFC, NOx and soot are reduced by 2.37%, 29.11% and 83.81% respectively. Higher Target Fuel Distribution Index indicates the improved mixture homogeneity for the optimized parameters.

In this study, a numerical study is performed by KIVA–CHEMKIN code to investigate the effects of biodiesel addition and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) on diesel engine premixed charge compression ignition (PCCI) combustion, performance, and emission characteristics. The studies are performed for neat diesel fuel and mixture of 10–40% biodiesel addition at 67%, 50%, and 40% EGR. For this purpose, a multichemistry surrogate mechanism using methyl decanoate (MD) and methyl-9-decenoate (MD9D) is used. The main innovation of this work is analyzing the chemical, thermodynamic, and dilution effects of biodiesel addition as well as different EGR ratios on PCCI combustion behavior. The results show that the main effect of EGR on PCCI combustion of biodiesel blend is related to the high temperature heat release (HTHR), and its effect on low temperature heat release (LTHR) is low. With increasing biodiesel addition, the role of the chemical effect is increased compared to the thermodynamic and dilution effects. Rate of production analysis (ROPA) indicate that for the different biodiesel ratios, the effect of reaction nC7H16 + HO2 = C7H15-2 + H2O2 is more effective on the start of combustion (SOC) compared to the other reactions. For a defined biodiesel addition, with decreasing EGR, total (unburned) hydrocarbon (THC) and CO are decreased, while NOx and indicated specific fuel consumption (ISFC) are increased.

The purpose of this work is to consider the requirements for emissions of harmful substances of diesel engines by selecting design and adjustment parameters that determine the organization of the workflow, and the exhaust gas cleaning system, taking into account the reduction of fuel consumption. Design elements and geometric characteristics of structures for a turbocharged diesel engine of Д-245 series produced by JSC HMC Minsk Motor Plant (4ЧН11/12.5) with a capacity of 90 kW equipped with an electronically controlled battery fuel injection have been developed: exhaust gas recirculation along the high pressure circuit, shape and dimensions of the combustion chamber, the number and angular arrangement of the nozzle openings in a nozzle atomizer, and inlet channels of the cylinder head. Methods for organizing a workflow are proposed that take into account the shape of the indicator diagrams and affect the emissions of nitrogen oxides and dispersed particles differently. Their implementation allows us to determine the boundary ranges of changes in the control parameters of the fuel supply and exhaust gas recirculation systems when determining the area of minimizing the specific effective fuel consumption and the range of studies for the environmental performance of a diesel engine. The paper presents results of the study on the ways to meet  the requirements for emissions of harmful substances, obtained by considering options for the organization of working processes, taking into account the reduction in specific effective fuel consumption, changes in the average temperature of the exhaust gases and diesel equipment. To evaluate these methods, the following indicators have been identified: changes in specific fuel consumption and average temperature of the toxicity cycle relative to the base cycle, the necessary degree of conversion of the purification system for dispersed particles and NOx. Recommendations are given on choosing a diesel engine to meet Stage 4 emission standards for nitrogen oxides and dispersed particles.
