AbstractTightening noose on engine emission norms compelled manufacturers globally to design engines with low emission specially NOx and soot without compromising their performance. Amongst various parameters, shape of piston bowls, injection pressure and nozzle diameter are known to have significant influence over the thermal performance and emission emanating from the engine. This paper investigates the combined effect of fuel injection parameters such as pressure at which fuel is injected and the injection nozzle size along with shape of piston bowl on engine emission and performance. Numerical simulation is carried out using one cylinder naturally aspirated diesel engine using AVL FIRE commercial code. Three geometries of piston bowls with different tumble and swirl characteristics are considered while maintaining the volume of piston bowl, compression ratio, engine speed and fuel injected mass constant along with equal number of variations for injection nozzle size and pressures for this analysis. The investigation corroborates that high swirl and large turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) are crucial for better combustion. TKE and equivalence ratio also increased as the injection pressure increases during the injection period, hence, enhances combustion and reduces soot formation. Increase in nozzle diameter produces higher TKE and equivalence ratio, while CO and soot emission are found to be decreasing and NOx formation to be increasing. Further, optimization is carried out for twenty-seven cases created by combining fuel injection parameters and piston bowl geometries. The case D2H1P1 (H1 = 0.2 mm, P1 = 200 bar) found to be an optimum case because of its lowest emission level with slightly better performance.

Energy security concerns and an abundant supply of natural gas in the USA provide the impetus for engine designers to consider alternative gaseous fuels in the existing engines. The dual-fuel natural-gas diesel engine concept is attractive because of the minimal design changes, the ability to preserve a high compression ratio of the baseline diesel, and the lack of range anxiety. However, the increased complexity of a dual-fuel engine poses challenges, including the knock limit at a high load, the combustion instability at a low load, and the transient response of an engine with directly injected diesel fuel and port fuel injection of compressed natural gas upstream of the intake manifold. Predictive simulations of the complete engine system are an invaluable tool for investigations of these conditions and development of dual-fuel control strategies. This paper presents the development of a phenomenological combustion model of a heavy-duty dual-fuel engine, aided by insights from experimental data. Heat release analysis is carried out first, using the cylinder pressure data acquired with both diesel-only and dual-fuel (diesel and natural gas) combustion over a wide operating range. A diesel injection timing correlation based on the injector solenoid valve pulse widths is developed, enabling the diesel fuel start of injection to be detected without extra sensors on the fuel injection cam. The experimental heat release trends are obtained with a hybrid triple-Wiebe function for both diesel-only operation and dual-fuel operation. The ignition delay period of dual-fuel operation is examined and estimated with a predictive correlation using the concept of a pseudo-diesel equivalence ratio. A four-stage combustion mechanism is discussed, and it is shown that a triple-Wiebe function has the ability to represent all stages of dual-fuel combustion. This creates a critical building block for modeling a heavy-duty dual-fuel turbocharged engine system.

Operational Characteristics

The article considers and solves the problems of adapting the mathematical models, used in calculating operational characteristics of diesel engines burning mineral diesel oil, to engines converted to RME biofuels. The analysis of mathematical models of calculating the main technical and economic characteristics of diesel engines as well as the parameters of the in-cylinder process and the concentration of toxic substances in the exhaust gases is performed. The need for adjusting the calculation algorithms is also demonstrated. The computer programs based on single-zone thermodynamic models are used in the research. The programs of mathematical modelling are modified, i.e. supplemented with the algorithm for calculating energy characteristics of the combustion products (e.g. specific heat capacity, internal heat, the lower calorific value, etc.). Based on the computer programs, modified for examining diesel engines burning biofuels, the computer-aided mathematical modelling experiment is carried out. The results of modelling are compared with the data obtained in testing the diesel engine 1A41. The mathematical modelling performed demonstrates the accuracy acceptable for solving practical problems: the difference between the obtained calculation results and diesel engine testing data for the load range of (1.0÷0.5) Pi nom does not exceed ± 5÷7%. Higher accuracy of modelling the characteristics of diesel engines, operating in the low- and medium-load modes, may be accounted for by the adjustment of the algorithm for calculating the induction period and the on-set phase of fuel injection.

Sukurtas kompiuterinis programinis modelis, skirtas darbinio kūno dyzelio cilindre energiniams parametrams skaičiuoti (specifinei šilumai, vidinei energijai), dyzeliui dirbant plačiąja elementinės cheminės sudėties biodegalų gama. Atliktas 1A41 dyzelio techninių ir ekonominių bei ekologinių rodiklių modeliavimas kompiuteriu, naudojant patobulintus matematinius modelius. Parodytas gautų rezultatų, pakankamų praktiniams uždaviniams spręsti, tikslumas: dyzeliui dirbant artimos nominaliosios apkrovos režimais (1,0÷0,5) Pi nom skirtumas tarp skaičiavimo ir dyzelio motorinių tyrimų rezultatų neviršija ±5÷7%. Dyzeliui dirbant mažos apkrovos režimu, matematinio modeliavimo rezultatų adekvatumo didinimas susijęs su kuro įpurškimo fazės bei savaiminio užsiliepsnojimo indukcijos periodo skaičiavimo algoritmo tobulinimu. Резюме Рассмотрены и решены задачи адаптации математических моделей расчета показателей дизеля при переводе их работы с минерального дизелина на биодизелины метилового эфира рапсового масла (МЭРМ). Выполнен анализ и дано обоснование направлений доработки расчетных алгоритмов ряда однозонных термодинамических математических моделей, используемых в практике исследования эксплуатационных показателей, параметров индикаторного процесса и эмиссии токсичных компонентов в выхлопных газах дизелей. В форме программного модуля составлен алгоритм расчета энергетических параметров рабочего тела в цилиндре (удельной теплоемкости, теплоты сгорания, внутренней энергии) для топлив с широким элементарным химическим составом. С использованием доработанных компьютерных программ выполнен широкий расчетный эксперимент и сопоставлены его результаты с данными моторных стендовых испытаний одноцилиндрового отсека дизеля 1А41. Показана приемлемая для решения практических задач точность математического моделирования: для нагрузочных режимов (1÷0,5) Pmi расхождения расчетных и экспериментальных значений параметров работы дизеля не превышают ±5÷7%. Повышение качества моделирования показателей дизеля на режимах средних и малых нагрузок связано с уточнением алгоритма расчета периода индукции и фазы начала видимого горения топлива в цилиндре.
