Di Diesel Engine

In DI Diesel engines NO and Soot trade off is an important challenge for Engineers. In this paper, at first, multiple injection strategy will be introduced as a useful way to reduce both NO and Soot emissions simultaneously. Then the effect of injection pressure in post injection on the engine emissions will be studied. Investigations have been conducted on DI diesel engine. To evaluate the benefits of multiple injection strategies and to reveal combustion mechanism, modified three dimensional CFD code KIVA-3V was used. Results showed that using post injection with appropriate dwell between injection pulses can be effective in simultaneously reduction of emissions. Based on computation results, NO reduction formation mechanism is a single injection with retarded injection timing. It is shown that reduced soot formation is because of the fact that the soot producing rich regions at the fuel spray head are not replenished by new fuel when the injection is stopped and then restarted. Also increasing injection pressure in post injection will reduce the Soot emission dramatically while NO is in control and it is due to increasing fuel burning rate in post injection pulse.

Dynamics Simulations

New induction manifold designs have been developed in this work to enhance the turbulence intensity and improve the mixing quality inside diesel engine cylinders. These new designs employ a spiral-helical shape with three different helical diameters (1D, 2D, 3D; where D is the inner diameter of the manifold) and three port outlet angles: 0 deg, 30 deg, and 60 deg. The new manifolds have been manufactured using three-dimensional printing technique. Computational fluid dynamics simulations have been conducted to estimate the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and the induction swirl generated by these new designs. The combustion characteristics that include the maximum pressure raise rate (dP/dθ) and the peak pressure inside the cylinder have been measured for a direct injection (DI) diesel engine utilizing these new manifold designs. In addition, engine performance and emissions have also been evaluated and compared with those of the normal manifold of the engine. It was found that the new manifolds with 1D helical diameter produce a high TKE and a reasonably strong induction swirl, while the ones with 2D and 3D generate lower TKEs and higher induction swirls than those of 1D. Therefore, dP/dθ and peak pressure were the highest with manifolds 1D, in particular manifold m (D, 30). Moreover, this manifold has provided the lowest fuel consumption with the engine load by about 28% reduction in comparison with the normal manifold. For engine emissions, m (D, 30) manifold has generated the lowest CO, SO2, and smoke emissions compared with the normal and other new manifolds as well, while the NO emission was the highest with this manifold.

Gas Recirculation

This paper presents the results of numerical and experimental investigations to evaluate the distribution of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) between cylinders in a DI turbocharged diesel engine. The turbulent three-dimensional flow field was analyzed by the numerical solution of conservation equations with an appropriate turbulence model. EGR was applied to intake manifold with various rates at cooled and non-cooled states. The experiments were conducted on an MT4.244 turbocharged DI diesel engine under full load condition at 1900rpm. The model was validated by experimental data with a good agreement between experimental measurements and numerical predictions. Using this method, it is possible to control EGR distribution so as to reduce emissions formation as well as to improve performance.

Fuel Mixing

This work is presented to study the effect of spray impinging on the combustion process and emissions in a direct injection diesel engine at various engine speeds. Computations are carried out using a three-dimensional modeling for sprays, spray-wall interactions, flow field, emission, and combustion process. Results indicate an increase in engine speed leads to increased spray impinging (wall film formation), turbulence intensity and average wall temperature in cylinder. The enhanced air/fuel mixing and intensified evaporation of wall film decreases soot emission by reducing the extent of the fuel rich regions specially in impinging zones. Also at higher engine speeds, combustion is delayed and fuel is consumed in a shorter time period by the enhanced air and fuel mixing. The shorter combustion duration provides less available time for soot and NOx formations. However, only a few attempts have been made to address the effect of impingement of spray with piston walls on the emissions and combustion process. The results of model in addition to approving the corresponding data in the literature are also compared with the experimental data and shown good agreement.

Nozzle Hole

Diesel spray characteristics are closely related to the combustion of the engine where the spray tip penetration and the fuel atomization play a key role especially for direct injection (DI) diesel engine. With different nozzles, the fuel atomization and evaporation will be different thereby affecting the combustion and emission characteristics. A three-dimensional model is built based on the parameters of a DI diesel engine, and its validation is also validated. Three nozzle-hole layouts are designed in this research, including the conventional hole, multi-hole, and group-hole. The spray characteristics and combustion process are studied with three different nozzle-hole layouts by the way of numerical simulation. Further more, the effect of inter-hole spacing of group-hole nozzle on the evaporation rate and combustion process is researched here.
