The effect of spray penetration distance on fuel impingement on piston bowl of a 7.4 kW diesel engine for biodiesel-diesel blend (B20) was studied using modeling and CFD simulation. As the peak inline fuel pressure increased from 460 bar with base diesel to 480 bar with B20, the spray penetration distance (fuel jet) increases. It is observed from the study that the jet tip hits on piston bowl resulting to fuel impingement which is one of durability issues for use of biodiesel blend in the diesel engine. In addition to this, the simulation of effects of different injection pressures up to 2000 bar on spray penetration distance and wall impingement were also studied. The penetration distance increases with increase the in-line fuel pressure and it decreases with decrease nozzle hole diameter. The fuel impingement on piston bowl of the engine with high injection pressure (typically 1800 bar) can be avoided by decreasing the nozzle diameter from 0.19 mm to 0.1 mm. Increase in swirl ratio could also reduce fuel impingement problem.

Contrary to energy, exergy may be destroyed due to irreversibility. Exergy analysis can be used to reveal the location, and amount of energy losses of engines. Despite the importance of the exergy analysis, there is a lack of information in this area, especially when the engine is fueled with biodiesel–diesel fuel blends under various injection operating parameters. Thus, in this research, the exergy analysis of a direct-injection diesel engine using biodiesel–diesel fuel blends was performed. The fuel blends (B0, B20, B40, and B100) were injected into cylinders at pressures of 200 and 215 bars. Moreover, the simulation of exergy and energy analyses was done by homemade code. The simulation model was verified by compression of experimental and simulation in-cylinder pressure data. The results showed there was good agreement between simulation data and experimental ones. Results indicated that the highest level of in-cylinder pressure at injection pressure of 215 bars is more than that of 200 bars. Moreover, by increasing the percentage of biodiesel, the heat transfer exergy, irreversibility, burnt fuel, and exergy indicator decreased, but the ratio of these exergy parameters (except for heat transfer exergy) to fuel exergy increased. These ratios increased from 46 to 50.54% for work transfer exergy, 16.57 to 17.97% for irreversibility, and decreased from 16 to 15.49% for heat transfer exergy. In addition, these ratios at 215 bars are higher than at 200 bars for all fuels. However, with increasing the injection pressure and biodiesel concentration in fuel blends, the exergy and energy efficiencies increased.
