Energy integration on a gasoline engine for efficiency improvement

Energy and exergy analyses of a gasoline engine

This study presents comparative energy and exergy analyses of a four-cylinder, four-stroke spark-ignition engine using gasoline fuels of three different research octane numbers (RONs), namely 91, 93 and 95.3. Each fuel test was performed by varying the engine speed between 1200 and 2400 rpm while keeping the engine torque at 20 and 40Nm. Then, using the steady-state data along with energy and e...

application of upfc based on svpwm for power quality improvement

در سالهای اخیر،اختلالات کیفیت توان مهمترین موضوع می باشد که محققان زیادی را برای پیدا کردن راه حلی برای حل آن علاقه مند ساخته است.امروزه کیفیت توان در سیستم قدرت برای مراکز صنعتی،تجاری وکاربردهای بیمارستانی مسئله مهمی می باشد.مشکل ولتاژمثل شرایط افت ولتاژواضافه جریان ناشی از اتصال کوتاه مدار یا وقوع خطا در سیستم بیشتر مورد توجه می باشد. برای مطالعه افت ولتاژ واضافه جریان،محققان زیادی کار کرده ...

Failure analysis of an intake valve in a gasoline engine

This paper presents a failure analysis on a failed intake valve in a gasoline engine. During an endurance test, an intake valve was broken and caused some damages on the piston. Material examinations (by a light microscope and also a scanning electron microscope) were conducted on the fracture surface of the intake valve shaft. Results showed that no pores or defects could be observed and the m...

Impact of Methanol–Gasoline Fuel Blends on the Performance and Exhaust Emissions of a SI Engine

Analysis of Recoverable Exhaust Energy from a Light-Duty Gasoline Engine

While EER (Exhaust Energy Recovery) has been widely pursued for improving the total efficiency and reducing CO2 emissions of internal combustion engines, the maximum regenerated power from the exhaust energy has been proposed and calculated in terms of endoreversible cycle. In this paper, based on the experimental data of an EER system installed on a light duty gasoline engine, the exhaust ener...
