No Emissions

Advanced electronically controlled diesel engines require a feedback signal to the ECU to adjust different operating parameters and meet demands for power, better fuel economy and low emissions. Different types of in-cylinder combustion sensors are being considered to produce this signal. This paper presents results of an experimental investigation on the characteristics of the ion current in an automotive diesel engine equipped with a common rail injection system. The engine is a 1.9 L, 4-cylinder, direct injection diesel engine. Experiments covered different engine loads and injection pressures. The relationships between the ion current, combustion parameters and engine out NO emissions and opacity are presented. The analysis of the experimental data identified possible sources of the ion current produced in diesel engines.

This paper presents a control-oriented thermodynamic model capable of predicting nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions in diesel engines. It is derived from zero-dimensional combustion model using in-cylinder pressure as the input. The methodology is based on a two-zone thermodynamic model which divides the combustion chamber into a burned and unburned gas zone. The original contribution of proposed method arises from: (1) application of a detailed two-zone modeling framework, developed in a way that the thermodynamic equations could be solved in a closed form without iterative procedure, which provides the basis for achieving high level of predictiveness, on the level of real-time capable models and (2) introduction of relative air-fuel ratio during combustion as a main and physically motivated calibration parameter of the NOx model. The model was calibrated and validated using data sets recorded in two different direct injection diesel engines, i.e. a light and a heavy-duty engine. The model is suitable for real-time applications since it takes less than a cycle to complete the entire closed cycle thermodynamic calculation including NOx prediction, which opens the possibility of integration in the engine control unit for closed-loop or feed-forward control.

Cycle Simulation

In this study we report the development and validation of phenomenological models for predicting direct injection (DI) diesel engine emissions, including nitric oxide (NO), soot, and unburned hydrocarbons (HC), using a full engine cycle simulation. The cycle simulation developed earlier by the authors (D. Jung and D. N. Assanis, 2001, SAE Transactions: Journal of Engines, 2001-01-1246) features a quasidimensional, multizone, spray combustion model to account for transient spray evolution, fuel–air mixing, ignition and combustion. The Zeldovich mechanism is used for predicting NO emissions. Soot formation and oxidation is calculated with a semiempirical, two-rate equation model. Unburned HC emissions models account for three major HC sources in DI diesel engines: (1) leaned-out fuel during the ignition delay, (2) fuel yielded by the sac volume and nozzle hole, and (3) overpenetrated fuel. The emissions models have been validated against experimental data obtained from representative heavy-duty DI diesel engines. It is shown that the models can predict the emissions with reasonable accuracy. Following validation, the usefulness of the cycle simulation as a practical design tool is demonstrated with a case study of the effect of the discharge coefficient of the injector nozzle on pollutant emissions.

Injection Strategies

The use of biodiesel-diesel blends is a current solution to some important problems, such as the depletion of oil resources, global warming, and the pollutant emissions of smoke, carbon monoxide, and hydrocarbons of diesel engines. However, the use of this alternative fuel is characterized by a reduction in engine effective power and an increase in brake-specific fuel consumption and nitrogen oxide pollutant emissions. Using the AVL MCC zero-dimensional combustion model of the AVL BOOST simulation program, it was evaluated to what extent split injection strategies can improve the performance and fuel economy of a tractor diesel engine fuelled with biodiesel B20 at maximum brake torque condition considering noise and pollutant emissions limitation. Various pilot – main – post split injection strategies have been studied to establish the optimal injection characteristics in terms of performance and fuel economy. Subsequently, they have been adapted in terms of compliance with current emission standards. In this way, it has been emphasized that the split injection solution is a viable way to improve performance, economy, and pollutant emissions of a tractor diesel engine.

Soot Model

A multistage combustion model for diesel engines is presented in this paper. Three combustion stages, ignition of diesel, premixed combustion and diffusion combustion, are considered in the combustion process in a typical medium speed direct injection diesel engine. The transition from the ignition delay to the premixed combustion stage occurs when the highest temperature in the cylinder is beyond a critical value, and the transition from the premixed combustion model to the diffusion combustion model occurs when a calculated fraction of the premixed fuel is burned, which is determined from an empirical correlation based on the engine design and running conditions. Significant improvements in the predictions for in-cylinder pressure and heat release rate were achieved compared with previous models. A soot model based on the Hiroyasu soot formation mechanism and the Nagle and Strickland-Constable soot oxidation mechanism was implemented in a standard KIVA3V code. The effect of the OH radical in soot oxidation was also incorporated into the soot model. Computations show that OH plays an important role during the late combustion stage. Predicted soot and NOx were compared with measured values and a good agreement was achieved.
