This paper proposes a control-oriented chemical reaction-based two-zone combustion model designed to accurately describe the combustion process and thermal performance for spark-ignition engines. The combustion chamber is assumed to be divided into two zones: reaction and unburned zones, where the chemical reaction takes place in the reaction zone and the unburned zone contains all the unburned mixture. In contrast to the empirical pre-determined Wiebe-function-based combustion model, an ideal two-step chemical reaction mechanism is used to reliably model the detailed combustion process such as mass-fraction-burned (MFB) and rate of heat release. The interaction between two zones includes mass and heat transfer at the zone interface to have a smooth combustion process. This control-oriented model is extensively calibrated based on the experimental data to demonstrate its capability of predicting the combustion process and thermodynamic states of the in-cylinder mixture.

In this paper, novel method for obtaining information about combustion process in individual cylinders of a multi-cylinder Spark Ignition Engine based on instantaneous crankshaft angular velocity is presented. The method is based on robust box constrained Levenberg-Marquardt minimization of nonlinear Least Squares given for measured and simulated instantaneous crankshaft angular speed which is determined from the solution of the engine dynamics torque balance equation. Combination of in-house developed comprehensive Zero-Dimensional Two-Zone SI engine combustion model and analytical friction loss model in angular domain have been applied to provide sensitivity and error analysis regarding Wiebe combustion model parameters, heat transfer coefficient and compression ratio. The analysis is employed to evaluate the basic starting assumption and possibility to provide reliable combustion analysis based on instantaneous engine crankshaft angular speed.

Even small amount additive (10…15% by volume from whole air amount) of hydrogen (H2) into spark ignition (SI) engines obviously effects ecological parameters and engine efficiency because of H2 exclusive properties. SI engine work process simulation was made using AVL Boost simulation software. Analysis of results showed that engine power depends a lot on H2 supply technique into engine; NOx amount in exhaust gases directly proportional to the amount of H2, however, making mixture leaner up to λ = 1.6, it is possible to reach significant NOx decrease. Increased amount of H2 as an additive in fuel, changes H/C ratio in fuel mixture, also hydrogen improves properties of the mixture (particularly lean) and combustion of hydrocarbons what can be a reason of decreased HC emissions in exhaust gases. Keyword(s): Hydrogen and gasoline mixture, engine efficiency, exhaust gases, nitrous oxides, hydrocarbons, simulation.
