Detecting Knock in Spark Ignited Engines
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we consider signal processing algorithms for detecting knock, i.e. auto-ignition of unburned fuel, in spark-ignited engines. To operate an engine with optimal efficiency, there is a need to operate close to the knock limit. This motivates the need for efficient knock detection algorithms that not only indicates knock, but also gives estimates on knock timing and size. The proposed detection algorithms are based on either incylinder pressure or ion current and both off-line and on-line methods are developed. The methods are tested on measured data, analysed, and compared with respect to detection performance, knock timing estimation accuracy, and robustness against model uncertainties.

An Efficient Method for Knock Signal Denoising in Spark Ignition Engine
One of the factors that affects the efficiency and lifetime of spark ignited internal combustion engine is “knock”. Knock sensor is a commonly used to detect this phenomenon. However, noise, limits detection accuracy of this sensor. In this study, Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) method is introduced as a fully adaptive signal-based analysis. Then, based on weighting decomposition...
متن کاملKnock and Combustion Rate Interaction in a Hydrogen Fuelled Combustion Engine
The paper describes correlation between combustion knock intensity and combustion rate calculated as the heat release rate from combustion pressure traces of a hydrogen fuelled spark ignited engine. Unlike a gasoline spark ignited (SI) engine, the hydrogen fuelled engine can easily generate knock during combustion at working conditions similar to a gasoline engine. However, the hydrogen knock d...
متن کاملPractical Delay Modeling of Externally Recirculated Burned Gas Fraction for Spark-Ignited Engines
This paper studies the low-pressure burned gas recirculation in spark-ignited engines and shows, at the light of supportive experimental results, that a linear delay system permits to capture the dominant effects of the system dynamics. The modeled transport delay is defined by implicit equations stemming from first principles. This model is shown to be sufficiently accurate to replace a sensor...
متن کاملRate of Pressure Rise in SI Engine Cylinder and its Relation to Knock (RESEARCH NOTE)
Tremendous efforts have been devoted to study the complex phenomenon "knock in spark ignition engines. There is an increasing interest in providing some tools to study knock in simulated data. In the previous studies, engine cylinder pressure oscillation has been used to investigate knock. Unless those methods involved highly complex non-detailed chemical relations, the previous studies were de...
