چکیده
Various environmental regulations put ever stringent requirements on the automotive industry as a part of solution to the problem of global warming and climate change. Engine emissions are influenced, among others, also with quality of fuel and air mixing process. Auto ignitability of fuel in cylinder depends on detailed chemical composition of the fuel as well as on the evolution of the thermal and compositional state of the fuel mixture. The evaporation of wall film, formed by spray/wall impingement has strong effects on engine emission. This works aims at further development of the numerical model of liquid wall film by implementation and validation of mathematical models of multicomponent wall film evaporation. Two multicomponent liquid film evaporation models were developed, the first one on the basis of analogy between momentum and mass transfer, and the second one employing modified wall functions which take into account influence of the evaporation on boundary layer above liquid film. Particular scientific contribution is in implementation of the UNIFAC method for activity coefficients calculation. Finally, implemented models were compared with available experimental data in order to confirm their validity.

متن کاملInfluence of Fuel Injection on Gasoline Engine Performance
Because of the most common method of preparing the fuel-air mixture for gasolinefueled engines is port fuel injection (PFI). For reducing the wall-film entering the cylinder in liquid phase, the phenomena of wall-film entering the cylinder in liquid phase should be at minimum lever or be avoided. So the first thing for learning the wall-film is to detect the way of the wallfilm entering the cyl...

Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) combustion is being considered as an alternative to conventional engine combustion systems due to its high efficiency and low engine-out emissions. To prepare a homogeneous mixture for diesel HCCI combustion, two types of low pressure (5MPa~20MPa) injectors were considered: a swirl injector and a multi-hole injector. A modified version of the KIVA-...
