Book Soot and NO x  Emissions and Combustion Characteristics of Low Heat Rejection Direct Injection Diesel Engines

Download or read book Soot and NO x Emissions and Combustion Characteristics of Low Heat Rejection Direct Injection Diesel Engines written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performance and emissions data were gathered on a normally aspirated single cylinder DI engine with various combinations of ceramic coatings installed. Thin ceramic thermal barrier coatings were applied to the piston crown and bowl, the head and valves, and the cylinder liner. The coated piston and head were run singly and in combination with the cylinder liner to investigate the effects of these different coated surfaces on emissions and performance. Coating the piston crown alone results in generally lower cylinder pressure, lower brake specific fuel consumption and lower NO(x) emission compared to the baseline engine. Soot emission is typically increased below 2000 RPM and decreased above 2000 RPM. Coating the head alone reduces cylinder pressure, but generally increases specific fuel consumption and NO(x) and soot emission. The KIVA-II code was used to model the Hydra engine with the thermal coatings. The computer modeling has led to an understanding of the effect of coating the piston on NO production. The hotter piston crown warms the intake air, shortening ignition delay and decreasing the ratio of premixed to diffusion combustion, ultimately resulting III lower peak cylinder temperature and reduced NO. The KIVA-II results agree reasonably well with the experimental data for cylinder pressure and NO and soot emission.

Book An In Cylinder Study of Soot and NO in a DI Diesel Engine  Final Report

Download or read book An In Cylinder Study of Soot and NO in a DI Diesel Engine Final Report written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clearly the reduction of NOx and particulate emissions remains a major challenge to Diesel engine manufacturers due to increasingly stringent emission standards in the US and other countries. The well documented NOx/particulate trade-off observed in Diesel engines makes the simultaneous reduction of both emissions particularly difficult for manufacturers to achieve. In an effort to provide an improved understanding of the fundamental processes which result in this trade-off, a program was carried out at Penn State to develop the appropriate engine facilities and laser diagnostics to permit in-cylinder studies of Diesel combustion and emissions production with the support of the Department of Energy Advanced Industrial Technology Division . This work has also been supported by the Cummins Engine Company, Lubrizol Corporation and the National Science Foundation. An optically accessible, direct injection, Diesel engine was constructed for these studies. The major objective of the, design of the engine was to maximize optical access under conditions representative of Diesel engine combustion in small bore, commercial engines. Intake air is preheated and boosted in pressure to make the in-cylinder conditions of heat release and pressure as realistic as possible. Another important objective of the design was flexibility in combustion chamber geometry to permit a variety of head and bowl geometries to be studied. In all the results reported in this report a square bowl was used to simplify the introduction of laser light sheets into the engine.

Book DI Diesel Performance and Emissions Models

Download or read book DI Diesel Performance and Emissions Models written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Development of models for direct injection diesel performance and emissions Of NOx and soot are the goals of this research. The simplest models investigated are flame temperature correlations. These correlations are semi-empirical tools that provide insight into the effects of dilution on NOx, particulate, and HC emissions and can be used by the design or calibration engineer to reduce the number of engine tests required. A characteristic time model for NOx emissions bas been used to study the mixing processes in diesel engines and extended to study multiple injections, water/steam dilution, and the results of NO injection tests. This NOx model was also modified to calculate the NO formed in the cylinder as a function of time and was shown to correlate engine-out NOx emissions for four diesel engines. Development of a cycle simulation code is also underway. Primary emphasis bas been placed on the study of the ignition and combustion submodels for this code.

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

Download or read book Investigation of the Performance and Emissions Characteristics of Dual Fuel Combustion in a Single Cylinder IDI Diesel Engine written by Johnnie L. 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 Investigation on Nitric Oxide and Soot of Biodiesel and Conventional Diesel Using a Medium Duty Diesel Engine

Download or read book Investigation on Nitric Oxide and Soot of Biodiesel and Conventional Diesel Using a Medium Duty Diesel Engine written by Hoseok Song and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biodiesel has been suggested as an alternative fuel to the petroleum diesel fuel. It beneficially reduces regulated emission gases, but increases NOx (nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide) Thus, the increase in NOx is the barrier for potential growth of the biodiesel fuel. In general, NOx formation is dominated by flame temperature. Interestingly, soot can play a role as a heat sink as well as a heat transfer media to high temperature gases. Thus, the cooling effect of soot may change the flame temperature and therefore, NOx emissions. In this study, emphasis is placed on the relationship between soot and NO (Nitric oxide) formation. For the experimental study, a metallic fuel additive is used since barium is known to be effective to suppress soot formation during combustion. The barium additive is applied to #2D (Number 2 diesel fuel) by volume basis: 0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 %-v, and to the palm olein oil by 0.25 %-v. All the tests are carried out in a four-cylinder medium duty diesel engine, 4045 DI diesel engine, manufactured by John Deere. For the analysis, an analytical model is used to estimate combustion temperature, NO concentration and soot emissivity. The results show that NO concentration does not have the expected trade-off relation with soot. Rather, NO concentration is found to be more strongly affected by ambient temperature and combustion characteristics than by soot. The results of the analytical model show the reasonable NO estimation and the improvement on temperature calculation. However, the model is not able to explain the detailed changes of soot emissivity by the different fuels since the emissivity correlation is developed empirically for diesel fuel.
