International Journal of Automotive Engineering (JSAE) 6 ( 1 ) 15 - 22 2015.03

Research paper (international conference proceedings), Joint Work, Accepted, ISSN 2185-0984

Object of this study is to realize improving thermal efficiency and emission reduction with low temperature combustion. EGR is a solution to low temperature combustion, however it occurs burning velocity decrease. To prevent this phenomenon, Dedicated EGR was adjusted to SI engine run by natural gas. The entire exhaust gas of a single cylinder operated by the equivalence ratio varied from lean to rich was recirculated to the other cylinders. Due to H2 and CO included in EGR, slowed burning velocity problem was overcome with increasing degree of constant volume, thus thermal efficiency could be improved.

The purpose of this study was to compare the spray characteristics, the combustion characteristics and the emissions (nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon and smoke) of typical fuels (100% diesel and 100% dimethyl ether) and diesel–dimethyl ether fuel blends in a constant-volume chamber and a single-cylinder direct-injection diesel engine. The spray characteristics were investigated by varying the ambient pressure and the fuel injection pressure using a commonrail fuel injection system with various fuel mixture ratios. The spray characteristic research parameters were the spray shape, the penetration length and the spray angle at the seven-hole injector. Common types of injector were used (Bosch). Two types of fuel blended by mass fraction were employed. Typical fuels (100% diesel and 100% dimethyl ether) and fuel blends with diesel:dimethyl ether mixture ratios of 95:5 and 90:10 were used. The injection pressure was fixed at 70 MPa while the ambient pressure was varied (0 MPa, 2.5 MPa and 5 MPa). The combustion experiments were conducted in a single-cylinder engine equipped with a common rail. The injection pressure was 700 bar at 1200 r/min. The amount of injected fuel was adjusted to obtain a fixed input calorific value of 972.2 J/cycle in order to make a comparison
between the fuel types. The results showed that the injection quantity was greater with diesel fuel but not for dimethyl ether fuel and for the fuel blend with the higher mixing ratio. The spray penetration length increased with increasing ambient pressure for diesel but decreased for dimethyl ether with a larger spray angle. The ignition delay and the heat release rate decreased with increasing dimethyl ether which led to a higher indicated mean effective pressure and higher thermal efficiency because there was less negative work in the expansion. The total hydrocarbon emissions and the carbon monoxide emissions decreased with increasing dimethyl ether, but the nitrogen oxide emissions generated were greater owing to the increased combustion temperature.

Closed-loop control of HCCI combustion for DME using external EGR and rebreathed EGR to reduce pressure-rise rate with combustion-phasing retard

This study experimentally investigates the effects of the combustion phasing on the homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion, and implements a closed-loop control of HCCI combustion to reduce pressure-rise rate (PRR) with combustion-phasing retard. The experiments were conducted using dimethyl ether (DME) in a single-cylinder HCCI research engine equipped with an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) loop for external EGR and a two-stage exhaust cam for rebreathed EGR. The results show that a maximum PRR (PRRmax) and a maximum in-cylinder charge temperature decreases with combustionphasing retard. However, excessive combustion-phasing retard leads to unacceptable coefficient of variation (COV) of CA50 and IMEP with partial-burn and/or misfire cycles. To dampen increasing cycleto-
cycle variations around the limit of combustion-phasing retard, the closed-loop control of HCCI
combustion was implemented using three feedback variables. Finally, stable stoichiometric HCCI
operation could be achieved with extensive combustion-phasing retard while maintaining acceptable PRRmax with the higher level of IMEP.

The effects of key parameters on the transition from SI combustion to HCCI combustion in a two-stroke free piston linear engine

Nguyen Ba Hung, Ocktaeck Lim, Norimasa Iida

An investigation was conducted to examine the effects of key parameters such as intake temperature, equivalence ratio, engine load, intake pressure, spark timing and spring stiffness on the transition from SI combustion to HCCI combustion in a two-stroke free piston linear engine. Operation of the free piston engine was simulated based on the combination of three mathematical models including a dynamic model, a linear alternator model and a thermodynamic model. These mathematical models were combined and solved by a program written in Fortran. To validate the mathematical models, the simulation results were compared with experimental data in the SI mode. For the transition from SI combustion to HCCI combustion, the simulation results show that if the equivalence ratio is decreased, the intake temperature and engine load should be increased to get a successful SI-HCCI transition. However, the simulation results also show that the in-cylinder pressure is decreased, while the peak in-cylinder temperature in HCCI mode is increased significantly if the intake temperature is increased so much.
Beside the successful SI-HCCI transition, the increase of intake pressure from Pin = 1.1 bar to Pin = 1.6 bar is one of solutions to reduce peak in-cylinder temperature in HCCI mode. However, the simulation results also indicate that if the intake pressure is increased so much (Pin = 1.6 bar), the engine knocking problem is occurred. Adjusting spring stiffness from k = 2.9 N/mm to k = 14.7 N/mm is also considered one of useful solutions for reducing the peak in-cylinder temperature in HCCI mode as well as avoiding engine knock. Besides, the change of spark timing is suggested as a benefic method to help the control of the SI-HCCI transition to be more convenient. To get a successful SI-HCCI transition with reducing of peak temperature in HCCI mode as well as avoiding engine knock, the simulation results show that the engine should be operated with following conditions: equivalence ratio / = 0.7, engine load RL = 180 X, intake temperature Tin = 400 K, intake pressure Pin = 1.2 bar, spark timing in SI mode xig = 3 mm and spring stiffness k = 14.7 N/mm.

Recently, a potentiality of Dedicated EGR (D-EGR) concept SI engine has been studied. This concept engine had four
cylinders and operated with exhaust gas supplied from the single cylinder to the intake manifold. Compared with
conventional SI engines, it was able to increase thermal efficiency and decrease CO, HC, and NOx emission by the high
D-EGR ratio 0.25.
In this study, numerical analysis of a SI engine with D-EGR system with various D-EGR ratios was conducted for detailed
understanding the potentiality of this concept in terms of thermal efficiency and NOx emission. #1 cylinder of assumed
engine was used as D-EGR cylinder that equivalence ratio varied from 0.6 to 3.4. Entire exhaust gas from #1 cylinder was recirculated to the other cylinders. The other cylinders run with this exhaust gas and new premixed air and fuel with
various equivalence ratios from 0.6-1.0. To study the effect of D-EGR ratio, the number of engine cylinders was considered from 3 to 6, same meaning with D-EGR ratio 0.5-0.2. A Laminar burning velocity and a flame temperature were considered to analyze thermal efficiency and NOx emission.
The results show that D-EGR system is able to make a similar level of thermal efficiency to that of conventional SI
engines. NOx emission were reduced by decreasing flame temperature while the laminar burning velocity was increased
without flame temperature rising due to the influence of H2 and CO that were included in EGR gas as intermediates.

High thermal efficiency with low emission can be realized by low-temperature combustion using EGR. Alger,T in SwRI proposed "Dedicated EGR" (a single sylinder run under rich condition and 100% of exhaust gas from this cylinder recirculated into the other cylinders.) to improve burning velocity by CO and H2 that included in EGR gas under high EGR ratio. This study investigates the dependence of burning velocity and flame temperature on equivalence ratio and EGR ratio by the combustion of premixed methane-air. Finally, it confirmed that "Dedicated EGR" had a potentiality of improving both thermal efficiency and NO emission.

A combustion method called Noise Cancelling Spike (NC-Spike) Combustion has been reported in the co-author’s previous paper, which reduces combustion noise in pre-mixed charge compression ignition with split injection. The overall combustion noise was reduced by lowering the maximum frequency component of the noise spectrum. In this paper, we investigates feasibility and controllability of the two-peak heat release rate during high temperature heat release by adding fuel in the adiabatic compression process of pre-mixed gas. The results show that the certain fuel addition timing generates the second heat release, and the interval of peak heat release rate could be controlled.

(cont).... Due to the cycle-to-cycle variation, the change of total mass of fuel in cylinder has a big effect on IMEP. After misfire, unburned fuel and intermediates remain in exhaust gas, which is re-breathed as hot EGR gas, and unburned fuel and intermediates are supplied to next cycle. This leads to the total mass of fuel changes cycle-to-cycle. As a result of feedback control, transient performance is realized but high sensitivity of response cannot be achieved under the constant engine speed.

This work investigates the potential of in-cylinder exhaust gas recirculation stratification for reducing the rate of pressure rise in dimethyl ether homogeneous charge compression ignition engines and its coupling with both thermal stratification and fuel stratification. Numerical analyses were performed using a five-zone version of the CHEMKIN-II kinetics rate code and the kinetic mechanics of dimethyl ether. The effects of inert components were used to represent the presence of exhaust gas recirculation in calculations. Three cases of exhaust gas recirculation stratification were tested in terms of both thermal stratification and fuel stratification at a fixed initial temperature, fixed initial pressure and fixed fuelling rate at bottom dead centre. In order to explore the appropriate stratification of exhaust gas recirculation, the exhaust gas recirculation width (defined as the difference between the exhaust gas recirculation ratios in zone 1 and zone 5 in the five-zone model) which we employed was from 0% to 30%. The case of exhaust gas recirculation homogeneity (called case 1), in which the exhaust gas recirculation width is 0%, was examined. In case 2, exhaust gas recirculation is located densely in a hot zone for combination with thermal stratification or in a fuel-rich zone for combination with fuel stratification. The last case (case 3) was the inverse of case 2. Ringing was reduced to an acceptable level in the case of fuel stratification with an appropriate exhaust gas recirculation distribution, which slowed the rapid burning during the compression stroke.
