Comparative evaluation of combustion, performance, exergy and emission characteristics in hydrogen-biodiesel dual fuel engine under RCCI mode

Abhishek Paul
TL;DR: In this paper , the impact of combustion phase shifting from CDC (conventional diesel combustion) to RCCI (reactivity controlled compression ignition) mode of operation under various premixed ratios of hydrogen on the combustion, performance and exhaust emissions of a partially modified CI (compression ignition) engine was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of Compression Ratio, EGR Rate and Main Injection Fuel Quantity on Combustion and Emissions in a PCCI Diesel Engine

TL;DR: In this paper, a simulation model on combustion process of a diesel engine was developed and the results were validated by experiments, and then the compression ignition was switched into PCCI (premixed charge compression Ignition) in order to understand the effects of individual parameters on combustion and provide the reference for further studies of testing and simulation.

Effects of Water Addition on Flash-Boiling Spray of Gasoline and Gasoline/Water Mixtures

TL;DR: In this article , a spray synchronous measurement experimental system with a single hole nozzle is used to investigate the spray morphology, spray width and droplet size distribution of gasoline/water mixtures sprays under different water volume fractions (0 %, 20 %, 35 %) and different initial fuel temperatures (50 °C~ 130 °C).

Numerical Investigation in a Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition (Rcci) Engine Fueled with N-Heptane and Iso-Octane

TL;DR: In this paper , the effects of the premixed ratio, intake manifold pressure and intake air temperature on a fourcylinder, four-stroke, direct injection, low-compression-ratio gasoline engine, operated in reactivity-controlled compression ignition (RCCI) combustion mode at a constant engine speed of 1000 rpm, were investigated using Converge CFD software.

High Combustion Temperature for the Reduction of Particulate in Diesel Engines

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of temperature T and equivalence ratio Φ on soot formation at high pressures up to 5 MPa were investigated in a diesel engine and the trajectory in relation to both soot and NO formation region gives suggestion of a possibility of high temperature mixture combustion to reduce particulate formation in diesel engines.

Numerical study on the low emission window of homogeneous charge compression ignition diesel combustion

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical study of the low emission window (lower than 10 grams/kg-f CO, 10g/kgf HC, 0.5 grams/ kg-f NO and almost soot-less) of diesel HCCI combustion was performed over wide ranges by changing equivalence ratio, inlet temperature, intake valve closure timing, engine speed and fuel amount.

Investigation of the Roles of Flame Propagation, Turbulent Mixing, and Volumetric Heat Release in Conventional and Low Temperature Diesel Combustion

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-mode combustion model that combines a comprehensive kinetics scheme for volumetric heat release and a level-set-based model for turbulent flame propagation is applied over the range of engine combustion regimes from non-premixed to premixed conditions.
