Petrol engines can run on natural gas, with little modification. The combustion characteristics of naturalgas is different from that of petrol, which eventually affects the engine performance. The performance of atypical automotive engine was studied running on natural gas, firstly at a constant speed for various loadsand then at a constant load for a range of speeds and results were compared with performance using petrol.Variation of the spark advance, consisting of centrifugal and vacuum advance mechanisms, wasinvestigated. Results showed some reduction in power and slight fall of efficiency and higher exhausttemperature, for natural gas. The air-fuel ratio for optimum performance was higher for gas than for petrol.This variation in spark requirement is mainly due to the slower speed of flame propagation for natural gas.For both the cases, the best power spark advance for natural gas was found to have higher values thanpetrol. This issue needs to be addressed during retrofitting petrol engines for running on natural gas.Journal of Chemical Engineering Vol.ChE 24 2006 42-49

This article shows an investigated research on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) engine with a port injection when varying ignition timing. The obtained results from simulating study have indicated that both of brake thermal efficiency and torque have a similar trend when varying ignition timing. The effect of ignition timing on the value of brake thermal efficiency is stronger in comparison with torque, however, the increase in engine speed or lambda value have to adjust the ignition timing more early. To reach the maximum break torque at each engine speed, the ignition timing should be adjusted IT = 14 - 32 bTDC, and this is also basic value to design the ignition timing system using CNG engine with port injection.

Exhaust Gas Emission

Compressed biomethane gas (CBG) is an interesting alternative fuel that can be used to solve fossil fuel crisis problems. Nevertheless, it is concerned about engine performance and exhaust gas emission. In additions, CBG can be produced from agricultural harvesting residues and the food industry that is a good opportunity for utilizing biogas as a vehicle fuel. The aims of this research are comparative analysis of the engine performance and exhaust emission on a CBG and compressed natural gas (CNG) fuelled in a spark ignition engine on engine performance and emissions. The engine has been modified to operate with both fuel gases under constant engine load (50% maximum load) and engine speed (1500 - 3500 rpm). The results show that the engine operated with CBG has higher thermal efficiency with lower the nitrogen oxide (NOx) and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions compared with CNG. Thus, the CBG fuel can be used as an alternative fuel to substitute CNG fuel in the spark ignition engine. In additions, the results give the useful information for developed and optimised the engine operated with compression biogas to impact the higher demand of automotive fuels in the future.
