[ 1 ] - A Predictive Model for the Combustion Process in Dual Fuel Engines at Part Loads Using a Quasi Dimensional Multi Zone Model and Detailed Chemical Kinetics Mechanism

This work is carried out to investigate combustion characteristics of a dual fuel (diesel-gas) engine at part loads, using a quasi-dimensional multi zone combustion model (MZCM) for the combustion of diesel fuel and a single zone model with detailed chemical kinetics for the combustion of natural gas fuel. Chemical kinetic mechanisms consist of 184 reactions with 50 species. This combustion mod...

[ 2 ] - The Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of the Effect of Variation of Thermodynamical Parameters of Egr fluid on No Emissions in S I Engines

Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) concept is the most simple and Abstract more economical method for NO pollutant reduction in spark ignition engines. However, when the higher amount of the EGR gas enters into the engine, the power, torque and fuel economy of the engine decrease. One effective solution for reduction of undesirable effect of this method is to use cooled EGR, that results in more r...

[ 3 ] - Dual Fuelling of a Direct Injection Automotive Diesel Engine by Diesel and Compressed Natural Gas

Application of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) in diesel engines has always been important, especially in the field of automotive engineering. This is due to easy accessibility, better mixing quality and good combustion characteristics of the CNG fuel. In this study the application of CNG fuel along with diesel oil in a heavy duty direct-injection automotive diesel engine is experimentally investi...

[ 4 ] - Prediction of Major Pollutants Emission in Direct-Injection Dual-Fuel Diesel And Natural-Gas Engines

The dual-fuel diesel engine (D.F.D.E) is a conventional diesel engine in which much of the energy released, hence power, comes from the combustion of gaseous fuel such as natural gas. The exhaust emission characteristics of the D.F.D.E needs further refinements, particularly in terms of reduction of Unburnt Hydrocarbons (U7HC) and Carbon Monoxide (CO) emission, because the concentration of thes...

[ 5 ] - Development of a Mathematical Model for Prediction of Pollutants Emission in D. I. Diesel Engines

Major pollutants emission from Direct-Injection (D.I) diesel engines are predicted by means of a mathematical model. In order to construct such a model, an integral Multi-Zone Combustion Model (MZCM) is formulated, which basically consists of jet mixing and combustion submodels. In MZCM, variation of injection pressure is considered. Also time period of ignition delay is predicted by considerin...

Use of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in compression-ignition (C-I) engines has always been considered important in the diesel engineering field. This is due to its easy accessibility and good combustion characteristics. In this paper the application of LPG fuel along with diesel oil in a direct- injection automotive diesel engine is experimentally investigated. In order to convert the pure dies...

A semi-empirical mathematical model for predicting the physical part of ignition delay period in the combustion of diesel engines with swirl is developed. This model is based on a single droplet evaporation model. The governing equations, namely, equations of droplet motion, heat and mass transfer were solved simultaneously using a Runge-Kutta step by step method. The computation was executed u...

In order to use gaseous fuels in Diesel Engines, Dual-Fuel Diesel Engine (D. F. D. E) the pilot injection approach is chosen. To predict its performance, an engine cycle model, based on limited-pressure Diesel cycle, is constructed. The model predicts D. F. D. E performance with LPG, and CNG gases. Comparing with pure Diesel engine, by increasing gas proportion in dual-fuel, indicated power and...
