Book excerpt: The currently reported work was concerned with experimental and numerical evaluation of the potential to partially replace diesel with hydrogen fuel, which continues to attract attention as an alternative longer-term fuel solution. The experimental work was involved with the fumigation of hydrogen on a single cylinder HD diesel engine under two real-world driving conditions at low and mid loads. Highest practical hydrogen substitution ratios could increase indicated efficiency by up to 4.6 and 2.4% while reducing CO2 emissions by 58 and 32% at low and mid loads, respectively. Soot and CO emissions were reduced as more hydrogen was supplied, particularly at low load. The numerical study was made by using two distinct phenomenological models being run in parallel. While, an in-depth evaluation of the unique dual fuel combustion was possible, the arising errors were largely associated with lack of dual fuel burning velocity data, which will remain a key barrier to dual-fuel simulation.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Universal concerns about degradation in air quality, stringent emissions regulations, energy scarcity, and global warming have prompted research and development of compressed ignition engines using alternative combustion concepts. Natural gas/diesel dual-fuel combustion is an advanced combustion concept for compression ignition diesel engines, which has attracted global attention in recent years. This combustion concept is accomplished by creating reactivity stratification in the cylinder via the use of two fuels characterized by distinctly different reactivities. The low reactivity and main fuel (i.e., natural gas) is firstly premixed with air and then charged into the cylinder through the intake manifold, and the high reactivity fuel (i.e., diesel) is then injected into the charged mixture through a direct injector. This combustion concept offers prominent benefits in terms of a significant reduction of particulate matter (PM) and sometimes nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions while maintaining comparable fuel efficiency compared to diesel engine. However, low thermal efficiency and high greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions under low load conditions are major challenges which prevented the implementation of dual-fuel concept in commercial automative engines. The present study investigates different combustion approaches with the aim to enhance combustion performance and reduce emissions of unburned methane, CO, NOx, soot, and GHG of natural gas/diesel dual-fuel engines under different engine load-speed conditions. In particular, the main focus of this thesis is on low load conditions where GHG emissions of conventional natural gas/diesel dual-fuel engine is much higher than that of conventional diesel engine. Alongside the experimental study, a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model is developed to help understand the behaviour of natural gas/diesel dual-fuel combustion process under different engine load-speed conditions. The studied approaches showed that the fuel efficiency and GHG emissions of natural gas/diesel dual-fuel engine can be significantly improved under low engine load conditions compared to diesel engine.

Gasoline was injected in the intake port using a port-fuel injector, whereas methane was fumigated into the intake manifold. The engine was operated at a constant speed of 1500 rev/min, a constant load of 5.2 bar IMEP, and a constant gasoline/methane energy substitution of 80%. Parameters such as diesel injection timing (SOI), diesel injection pressure, and boost pressure were varied to quantify their impact on engine performance and engineout ISNOx, ISHC, ISCO, and smoke emissions. The change in combustion process from heterogeneous combustion to HCCI like combustion was also observed.

Book A Computational Study of Diesel and Diesel methane Dual Fuel Combustion in a Single cylinder Research Engine

Download or read book A Computational Study of Diesel and Diesel methane Dual Fuel Combustion in a Single cylinder Research Engine written by Prabhat Ranjan Jha and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dual fuel combustion is one strategy to achieve low oxides of nitrogen and soot emissions while maintaining the fuel conversion efficiency of IC engines. However, it also suffers from high engine-out carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbon emissions, and the incidence of knock at high loads. The present work focused on CFD simulation of diesel-methane dual fuel combustion in a single-cylinder research engine (SCRE). For pure diesel combustion, a load sweep of 2.5 bar brake mean effective pressure (BMEP) to 7.5 bar BMEP was performed at a constant engine speed of 1500 rpm and a diesel injection pressure of 500 bar. For diesel-methane dual fuel combustion, a methane percent energy substitution sweep was performed from 30% to 90 % at 1500 rpm, 3.3 bar BMEP, 500 bar Pinj, and 355 crank angle degrees (CAD) diesel injection timing. Combustion, performance, and emissions results are presented and compared with experimental data where possible.

Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2019 in the subject Engineering - Mechanical Engineering, grade: 10, course: Mechanical Engineering, language: English, abstract: The growing demand and low production of indigenous crude along with inadequate refining capacity has forced India to look for alternative fuels to sustain the economic development. India is one among the largest petro-diesel consuming and importing country i.e. about 70% of its demand. Violently fluctuating world prices of oil have been a destabilizing element for the balance of country's economy and external debt. Centralized power generation are insufficient to encounter energy necessities of decentralized population of rural area, due to low loads, long distribution lines, power shortages, low and fluctuating voltage and low reliability. Decentralized system using renewable sources of energy could go a long way in meeting the energy needs of the decentralized communities. Main source of economy in our country is irrigation. Irrigation has to be developed on a great measure, which requires energy to run various implements. The higher use of petrol/diesel in agronomy and transport sector has resulted in environmental degradation. Alternate fuels are being explored world-wide to reduce environmental pollution. To reduce the reliance on petroleum based fuels, bio-diesels are gaining attention world-wide. In this research work diesel is blended with treble alternate fuels i.e. dual biodiesel and a biofuel, comprising waste cooking oil biodiesel, palm stearin biodiesel and hydrogen, which are tested on single cylinder CI engine for performance, emission and combustion Analysis. Compression ratio and injection opening pressure are varied to get best performance, emission and combustion characteristic. At first dual biodiesel (WCOBD + PSBD) blended in diesel for different proportion will be tested in comparison with diesel as standalone fuel for different compression ratios and fuel injection p

Book Investigation of the Performance and Emissions Characteristics of Dual Fuel Combustion in a Single Cylinder IDI Diesel Engine

Williams (Jr.) and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's Abstract: Restrictions in the allowable exhaust gas emissions of diesel engines has become a driving factor in the design, development, and implementation of internal combustion (IC) engines. A dual fuel research engine concept was developed and implemented in an indirect injected engine in order to research combustion characteristics and emissions for non-road applications. The experimental engine was operated at a constant speed and load 2400 rpm and 5.5 bar indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP). n-Butanol was port fuel injected at 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% by mass fraction with neat ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD#2). Peak pressure, maximum pressure rise rates, and heat release rates all increased with the increasing concentration of n-Butanol. MPRR increased by 127% and AHRR increased by 30.5% as a result of the shorter ignition delay and combustion duration. Ignition delay and combustion duration were reduced by 3.6% and 31.6% respectively. This occurred despite the lower cetane number of n-Butanol as a result of increased mixing due to the port fuel injection of the alcohol. NOx and soot were simultaneously reduced by 21% and 80% respectively. Carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbons emissions were increased for the dual fuel combustion strategies due to valve overlap. Results display large emission reductions of harmful pollutants, such as NOx and soot.

Book An Experimental Investigation of Dual injection Strategies on Diesel methane Dual fuel Low Temperature Combustion in a Single Cylinder Research Engine

Download or read book An Experimental Investigation of Dual injection Strategies on Diesel methane Dual fuel Low Temperature Combustion in a Single Cylinder Research Engine written by Aamir Sohail and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present manuscript discusses the performance and emission benefits due to two diesel injections in diesel-ignited methane dual fuel Low Temperature Combustion (LTC). A Single Cylinder Research Engine (SCRE) adapted for diesel-ignited methane dual fuelling was operated at 1500 rev/min and 5 bar BMEP with 1.5 bar intake manifold pressure. The first injection was fixed at 310 CAD. A 2nd injection sweep timing was performed to determine the best 2nd injection timing (as 375 CAD) at a fixed Percentage Energy Substitution (PES 75%). The motivation to use a second late injection ATDC was to oxidize Unburnt Hydrocarbons (HC) generated from the dual fuel combustion of first injection. Finally, an injection pressure sweep (550-1300 bar) helped achieve simultaneous reduction of HC (56%) and CO (43%) emissions accompanied with increased IFCE (10%) and combustion efficiency (12%) w.r.t. the baseline single injection (at 310 CAD) of dual fuel LTC.

Book EXPERIMENTAL AND COMPUTATIONAL INVESTIGATION OF DUAL FUEL DIESEL  NATURAL GAS RCCI COMBUSTION IN A HEAVY DUTY DIESEL ENGINE

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract : Among the various alternative fuels, natural gas is considered as a leading candidate for heavy-duty applications due to its availability and applicability in conventional internal combustion diesel engines. Compared to their diesel counterparts natural gas fueled spark-ignited engines have a lower power density, reduced low-end torque capability, limited altitude performance, and ammonia emissions downstream of the three-way catalyst. The dual fuel diesel/natural gas engine does not suffer with the performance limitations of the spark-ignited concept due to the flexibility of switching between different fueling modes. Considerable research has already been conducted to understand the combustion behavior of dual fuel diesel/natural gas engines. As reported by most researchers, the major difficulty with dual fuel operation is the challenge of providing high levels of natural gas substitution, especially at low and medium loads. In this study extensive experimental and simulation studies were conducted to understand the combustion behavior of a heavy-duty diesel engine when operated with compressed natural gas (CNG) in a dual fuel regime. In one of the experimental studies, conducted on a 13 liter heavy-duty six cylinder diesel engine with a compression ratio of 16.7:1, it was found that at part loads high levels of CNG substitution could be achieved along with very low NOx and PM emissions by applying reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) combustion. When compared to the diesel-only baseline, a 75% reduction in both NOx and PM emissions was observed at a 5 bar BMEP load point along with comparable fuel consumption values. Further experimental studies conducted on the 13 liter heavy-duty six cylinder diesel engine have shown that RCCI combustion targeting low NOx emissions becomes progressively difficult to control as the load is increased at a given speed or the speed is reduced at a given load. To overcome these challenges a number of simulation studies were conducted to quantify the in-cylinder conditions that are needed at high loads and low to medium engine speeds to effectively control low NOx RCCI combustion. A number of design parameters were analyzed in this study including exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rate, CNG substitution, injection strategy, fuel injection pressure, fuel spray angle and compression ratio. The study revealed that lowering the compression ratio was very effective in controlling low NOx RCCI combustion. By lowering the base compression ratio by 4 points, to 12.7:1, a low NOx RCCI combustion was achieved at both 12 bar and 20 bar BMEP load points. The NOx emissions were reduced by 75% at 12 bar BMEP while fuel consumption was improved by 5.5%. For the 20 BMEP case, a 2% improvement in fuel consumption was achieved with an 87.5% reduction in NOx emissions. At both load points low PM emissions were observed with RCCI combustion. A low NOx RCCI combustion system has multiple advantages over other combustion approaches, these include; significantly lower NOx and PM emission which allows a reduction in aftertreatment cost and packaging requirements along with application of higher CNG substitution rates resulting in reduced CO2 emissions.
