Mobile source emissions have already accounted for a large proportion of environmental pollution, which seriously affect the symmetric characteristics of atmosphere, and automobile emissions have extremely serious deterioration of emissions under transient operation, especially particulate emissions. These factors exacerbate the asymmetry of the environment. So, the paper reports an experiment about the improvement of post injection strategy on combustion, regulated emissions (HC, CO, and NOx), and particle number emissions especially the emissions of different size particles in the transient process of an EGR diesel engine, meanwhile, the effects of post injection on the combustion of mixture are further analyzed by numerical simulation method. The test speed was 1600 r/min, and the torque increased from 5% of the maximum torque to 100%. The results indicated that the shorter the instantaneous loading time, the more severe the deterioration of particulate emissions, HC and CO emissions, but loading time has little effect on NOx emissions. The particles with the size range of 50–100 nm, 23–50 nm, and >100 nm are greatly affected by the loading process and post injection. In comparison, it has little effect on ultrafine particles with particle size of 15–23 nm and <15 nm. With the amount of post injection increased, the in-cylinder disturbance increased, and the oxygen-rich area in cylinder increased, the particle number concentration first decreased and then slightly increased. When the amount of post injection fuel is 2 mg and the main-post injection interval is 2000 us, the effects of suppressing particulate emissions are the best, for the 50–100 nm and >100 nm particles, the peak number concentration can be reduced by 25% and 50%, respectively. Due to the turbo charging lag, the peak of NOx emissions during the unloading process were slightly larger than the loading process.

It is estimated by the experts in the automotive industry that diesel engines on the transport market should increase within the years to come due to their high thermal efficiency coupled with low carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, provided their nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate emissions are reduced. At present, adequate after-treatments, NOx and particulates matter (PM) traps are developed and industrialized with still concerns about fuel economy, robustness, sensitivity to fuel sulfur and cost because of their complex and sophisticated control strategy. New combustion processes focused on clean diesel combustion are investigated for their potential to achieve near zero particulate and NOx emissions. Their main drawbacks are increased level of unburned hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions, combustion control at high load and limited operating range and power output. In this work, cold flow simulations for a single cylinder of a nine-liter (6 cylinder × 1.5 lt.) diesel engine have been performed to find out flow development and turbulence generation in the piston-cylinder assembly. In this study, the goal is to understand the flow field and the combustion process in order to be able to suggest some improvements on the in-cylinder design of an engine. Therefore combustion simulations of the engine have been performed to find out flow development and emission generation in the cylinder. Moreover, the interaction of air motion with high-pressure fuel spray injected directly into the cylinder has also been carried out. A Lagrangian multiphase model has been applied to the in-cylinder spray-air motion interaction in a heavy-duty CI engine under direct injection conditions. A comprehensive model for atomization of liquid sprays under high injection pressures has been employed. The combustion is modeled via a new combustion model ECFM-3Z (Extended Coherent Flame Model) developed at IFP. Finally, a calculation on an engine configuration with compression, spray injection and combustion in a direct injection Diesel engine is presented. Further investigation has also been performed in-cylinder design parameters in a DI diesel engine that result in low emissions by effect of high turbulence level. The results are widely in agreement qualitatively with the previous experimental and computational studies in the literature.
