We use a model that is based on the cycle behavior inlet pressure variation. This analysis revealed the two main regimes of operation marine propulsion engines. Pressure drop in the suction process can be seen from two points of view: this pressure drop is an active dissipation and at the same time is a passive dissipation, contributing to the deterioration of cycle infrastructure. Interference of the two effects is reflected by the appearance of a ψaopt=0,3...0,35, for which indicated power Pi becomes maximum in terms of given geometric and gazodynamic configurations. Respectively for a weighting of conductance gazodynamic imposed. When fuel flow is imposed, the analysis revealed that the share of shall be amended to variation of ψa, which involves the geometric and gazodynamic configuration variable. In this numerical analysis showed the existence of ψaopt=0,1...0,15, for which indicated efficiency ηi is maximum. These findings are the basis for the complex optimization cycle program for four-stroke compression ignition engine.

This experimental work describes the operation of a wobble-plate-type fuel pump for the stable supply of dimethyl ether (DME) fuel and evaluates its application possibility in a compression ignition engine. To achieve this, different types of flow control valves (normally open and normally closed types) were installed on the wobble-plate-type fuel pump. At the same time, the variations in fuel flow rate, torque, and temperature variation in the main parts of the pump were investigated under various operating conditions using a pump performance test system. In addition, a dummy-rail, which has half the volume of a common-rail, was installed to analyze pump stability under high flow rate/high load conditions. The wobble-plate-type fuel pump has showed satisfactory performance for DME fuel supply. The maximum flow rate (∼60 kg/h) is two times higher and the maximum torque value (∼32 N m) is three times higher than the required fuel flow and torque for stable driving of the DME engine (∼30 kg/h and ∼10 N m), respectively. Application of dummy-rail in wobble-plate-type fuel pump system would be a good solution to control the instability of pump operation in high flow rate/high load conditions.

In recent years, industries have been investing to develop a potential alternative fuel to substitute the depleting fossil fuels which emit noxious emissions. Present work investigated the effect of ferrous ferric oxide nano-additive on performance and emission parameters of compression ignition engine fuelled with chicken fat methyl ester blends. The nano-additive was included with various methyl ester blends at different ppm of 50, 100, and 150 through the ultrasonication process. Probe sonicator was utilized for nano-fuel preparation to inhibit the formation of agglomeration of nanoparticles in base fuel. Experimental results revealed that the addition of 100 ppm dosage of ferrous ferric oxide nanoparticles in blends significantly improves the combustion performance and substantially decrease the pernicious emissions of the engine. It is also found from an experimental results analysis that brake thermal efficiency (BTE) improved by 4.84%, a reduction in brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) by 10.44%, brake specific energy consumption (BSEC) by 9.44%, exhaust gas temperature (EGT) by 19.47%, carbon monoxides (CO) by 53.22%, unburned hydrocarbon (UHC) by 21.73%, nitrogen oxides (NOx) by 15.39%, and smoke by 14.73% for the nano-fuel B20FFO100 blend. By seeing of analysis, it is concluded that the doping of ferrous ferric oxide nano-additive in chicken fat methyl ester blends shows an overall development in engine characteristics.

In this work, the Global Energy Balance (GEB) of a 1.6 L compression ignition engine is analyzed during WLTC using a combination of experimental measurements and simulations, by means of a Virtual Engine. The energy split considers all the relevant energy terms at two starting temperatures (20°C and 7°C) and two altitudes (0 and 1000 m). It is shown that reducing ambient temperature from 20°C to −7°C decreases brake efficiency by 1% and increases fuel consumption by 4%, mainly because of the higher friction due to the higher oil viscosity, while the effect of increasing altitude 1000 m decreases brake efficiency by 0.8% and increases fuel consumption by 2.5% in the WLTC mainly due to the change in pumping. In addition, GEB shows that ambient temperature is affecting exhaust enthalpy by 4.5%, heat rejection to coolant by 2%, and heat accumulated in the block by 2.5%, while altitude does not show any remarkable variations other than pumping and break power.

In the current work, an effort is made to study the influence of injection timing (IT) and injection duration (ID) of manifold injected fuels (MIF) in the reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) engine. Compressed natural gas (CNG) and compressed biogas (CBG) are used as the MIF along with diesel and blends of Thevetia Peruviana methyl ester (TPME) are used as the direct injected fuels (DIF). The ITs of the MIF that were studied includes 45°ATDC, 50°ATDC, and 55°ATDC. Also, present study includes impact of various IDs of the MIF such as 3, 6, and 9 ms on RCCI mode of combustion. The complete experimental work is conducted at 75% of rated power. The results show that among the different ITs studied, the D+CNG mixture exhibits higher brake thermal efficiency (BTE), about 29.32% is observed at 50° ATDC IT, which is about 1.77, 3.58, 5.56, 7.51, and 8.54% higher than D+CBG, B20+CNG, B20+CBG, B100+CNG, and B100+CBG fuel combinations. The highest BTE, about 30.25%, is found for the D+CNG fuel combination at 6 ms ID, which is about 1.69, 3.48, 5.32%, 7.24, and 9.16% higher as compared with the D+CBG, B20+CNG, B20+CBG, B100+CNG, and B100+CBG fuel combinations. At all ITs and IDs, higher emissions of nitric oxide (NOx) along with lower emissions of smoke, carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrocarbon (HC) are found for D+CNG mixture as related to other fuel mixtures. At all ITs and IDs, D+CNG gives higher In-cylinder pressure (ICP) and heat release rate (HRR) as compared with other fuel combinations.
