Turbulent Flame Velocity Model for SI Engine
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new model for turbulent flame velocity of premixed flame in spark ignition engine for Iso-octane air mixture has been developed and validated for a wide range of engine operating parameters. The model developed is a zero dimensional thermodynamic model. The effects of engine speed (600-1160 rpm), equivalence ratio (0.7-1.1), unburnt mixture temperature (532650 Rankine), compression ratio (5-8) and ignition timing (5-30 degree before top dead center) have been studied in detail. The comparison between theoretical and experimental burning velocity has been made for a wide range of engine operating parameters such as compression ratio, angle of spark, equivalence ratio, flame radius, engine speed and unburnt mixture temperature. The flame velocity obtained from the present model is in good agreement with the experimental and theoretical flame velocity of Cakir. The flame velocity computed by the present model is also in good agreement with the flame velocity calculated by Malik model.

Development of a Flame Propagation Model for Dual-Fuel Partially Premixed Compression Ignition Engines
A new combustion model is developed and applied to simulate combustion in dual-fuel engines in which the premixed natural gas is ignited by the combustion flame initiated by a diesel spray. The model consists of a diesel auto-ignition model and a flame propagation model. A G-equation model previously developed to simulate SI engine combustion was incorporated with an auto-ignition model to simu...

متن کاملVelocity of turbulent flamelets with realistic fuel expansion.
Nonlinear model equation for weakly turbulent premixed flames with realistic fuel expansion is proposed. The equation describes both the hydrodynamic flame instability and flame response to external turbulence in the regime of flamelets. On the basis of the proposed equation the velocity of turbulent flames is investigated for the cases of both weak and relatively strong turbulence. Comparison ...

The application of ion current signals is one of the most recent approaches in engine management systems. By applying a small constant DC voltage across the electrodes of the spark plug and measuring the current through the electrode gap, the state of gas may be measured and investigated. In this paper a computer code is developed in order to analyze the state of gas during the combustion p...
