Book SAE 2006 05 0182 Potential of Existing Emission Control Technologies for Diesel Engines Fuelled With Biodiesel

Download or read book SAE 2006 05 0182 Potential of Existing Emission Control Technologies for Diesel Engines Fuelled With Biodiesel written by Koji Yamane and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes the potential of existing exhaust emission reduction technologies for diesel engines fuelled with biodiesel. We examined improvements in in-cylinder combustion technologies using common-rail, high-pressure injection equipment, after-treatment technology using diesel particulate filters:DPF and diesel oxidation catalysts (DOC), and fuel treatment technology by the addition of a cetane improver. An additive, 2-ethyl-hexyl-nitrate:EHN, was tested using both neat biodiesel fuel and a 20% biodiesel/low-sulfur gasoil blend:B20 using a DI diesel engine with a common-rail injection system. The EHN was effective for reducing soluble organic fraction:SOF in particulate matter:PM at low engine loads for neat biodiesel fuel. EHN addition reduced NOx for both B20 and gasoil. Engine bench tests and vehicle road tests were conducted using a passive DPF system without a catalyst or electric heater for filter regeneration. For gasoil, regeneration of the DPF was required at approximately 300 km. However, regeneration of the DPF was not necessary when using biodiesel fuel. The DPF is effective for reducing both soot particles and SOF in PM at high and low engine loads. Self-regeneration of the DPF occurs when engine loads change from low to high and when potassium hydroxide catalysts are incorporated into the biodiesel production process; transesterification and refining process. We found that a diesel oxidation catalysts:DOC is effective at reducing SOF, unburned hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide, and aldehydes in exhaust emission. In addition, we devised a strategy for emission control using existing technologies. First, NOx emissions could be reduced by retarding the timing of injection such that it was the same as that of gasoil. This control of timing is particularly important given that the ignitability of biodiesel greater than that of gasoil. SOF in PM will be reduced by DPF, DOC and cetane improver at low engine loads. In general, soot emission associated with biodiesel is less than that of gasoil because biodiesel is oxygenated and free of aromatic hydrocarbon diesel fuel. Furthermore, soot emission can be suppressed by high-pressure injection and DPF, while the gaseous exhaust emissions, CO, HC, and aldehydes, will be reduced by DOC. Finally, the combination of conventional emission control technologies, DPF, DOC, fuel additives, will necessitate high-pressure injection in order to meet the stringent diesel engine emission targets for biodiesel-fuelled diesel engines by 2010.

Book Cost  Effectiveness  and Deployment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light Duty Vehicles

Download or read book Cost Effectiveness and Deployment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light Duty Vehicles written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 812 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The light-duty vehicle fleet is expected to undergo substantial technological changes over the next several decades. New powertrain designs, alternative fuels, advanced materials and significant changes to the vehicle body are being driven by increasingly stringent fuel economy and greenhouse gas emission standards. By the end of the next decade, cars and light-duty trucks will be more fuel efficient, weigh less, emit less air pollutants, have more safety features, and will be more expensive to purchase relative to current vehicles. Though the gasoline-powered spark ignition engine will continue to be the dominant powertrain configuration even through 2030, such vehicles will be equipped with advanced technologies, materials, electronics and controls, and aerodynamics. And by 2030, the deployment of alternative methods to propel and fuel vehicles and alternative modes of transportation, including autonomous vehicles, will be well underway. What are these new technologies - how will they work, and will some technologies be more effective than others? Written to inform The United States Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission standards, this new report from the National Research Council is a technical evaluation of costs, benefits, and implementation issues of fuel reduction technologies for next-generation light-duty vehicles. Cost, Effectiveness, and Deployment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light-Duty Vehicles estimates the cost, potential efficiency improvements, and barriers to commercial deployment of technologies that might be employed from 2020 to 2030. This report describes these promising technologies and makes recommendations for their inclusion on the list of technologies applicable for the 2017-2025 CAFE standards.

Book Optimizing Low Temperature Diesel Combustion  LTC D   FreedomCAR and Vehicle Technologies Program Solicitation for University Research and Graduate Automotice Technology Education  GATE  Centers of Excellence

Download or read book Optimizing Low Temperature Diesel Combustion LTC D FreedomCAR and Vehicle Technologies Program Solicitation for University Research and Graduate Automotice Technology Education GATE Centers of Excellence written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The engine industry is currently facing severe emissions mandates. Pollutant emissions from mobile sources are a major source of concern. For example, US EPA mandates require emissions of particulate and nitrogen oxides (NOx) from heavy-duty diesel engine exhaust to drop at least 90 percent between 1998 and 2010. Effective analysis of the combustion process is required to guide the selection of technologies for future development since exhaust after-treatment solutions are not currently available that can meet the required emission reduction goals. The goal of this project is to develop methods to optimize and control Low Temperature Combustion Diesel technologies (LTC-D) that offers the potential of nearly eliminating engine NOx and particulate emissions at reduced cost over traditional methods by controlling pollutant emissions in-cylinder. The work was divided into 5 Tasks, featuring experimental and modeling components: 1.) Fundamental understanding of LTC-D and advanced model development, 2.) Experimental investigation of LTC-D combustion control concepts, 3.) Application of detailed models for optimization of LTC-D combustion and emissions, 4.) Impact of heat transfer and spray impingement on LTC-D combustion, and 5.) Transient engine control with mixed-mode combustion. As described in the final report (December 2008), outcomes from the research included providing guidelines to the engine and energy industries for achieving optimal low temperature combustion operation through using advanced fuel injection strategies, and the potential to extend low temperature operation through manipulation of fuel characteristics. In addition, recommendations were made for improved combustion chamber geometries that are matched to injection sprays and that minimize wall fuel films. The role of fuel-air mixing, fuel characteristics, fuel spray/wall impingement and heat transfer on LTC-D engine control were revealed. Methods were proposed for transient engine operation during load and speed changes to extend LTC-D engine operating limits, power density and fuel economy. Low emissions engine design concepts were proposed and evaluated.

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 Particulate Emissions from Vehicles

Download or read book Particulate Emissions from Vehicles written by Peter Eastwood and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The public health risks posed by automotive particulate emissions are well known. Such particles are sufficiently small to reach the deepest regions of the lungs; and moreover act as carriers for many potentially toxic substances. Historically, diesel engines have been singled out in this regard, but recent research shows the need to consider particulate emissions from gasoline engines as well. Already implicated in more than one respiratory disease, the strongest evidence in recent times points to particle-mediated cardiovascular disorders (strokes and heart attacks). Accordingly, legislation limiting particulate emissions is becoming increasingly stringent, placing great pressure on the automotive industry to produce cleaner vehicles - pressure only heightened by the ever-increasing number of cars on our roads. Particulate Emissions from Vehicles addresses a field of increased international interest and research activity; discusses the impact of new legislation globally on the automotive industry; and explains new ways of measuring particle size, number and composition that are currently under development. The expert analysis and summary of the state-of-the-art, which encompasses the key areas of combustion performance, measurement techniques and toxicology, will appeal to R&D practitioners and engineers working in the automotive industry and related mechanical fields, as well as postgraduate students and researchers of engine technology, air pollution and life/ environmental science. The public health aspects will also appeal to the biomedical research community.
