A constant volume combustion chamber is used to investigate the flame kernel development of gasoline air mixtures under various
ignition systems, ignition energies and spark plugs. Three kinds of ignition systems are designed and assembled, and the ignition
energy is controlled by the variation of the dwell time. Several kinds of spark plugs are also tested. The velocity of flame
propagation is measured by a laser deflection method, and the combustion pressure is analyzed by the heat release rate and
the mass fraction burnt. The results represent that as the ignition energy is increased by enlarging either dwell time or
spark plug gap, the heat release rate and the mass fraction burnt are increased. The electrodes materials and shapes influence
the flame kernel development by changing he transfer efficiency of electrical energy to chemical energy. The diameter of electrodes
also influences the heat release rate and the burnt mass fraction. 相似文献

Minimum ignition energies of hydrogen/air and methane/air mixtures have been investigated numerically by solving unsteady
one-dimensional conservation equations with detailed chemical kinetic mechanisms. Initial kernel size needed for numerical
calculation is a sensitive function of initial pressure of a mixture and should be estimated properly to obtain quantitative
agreement with experimental results. A simple macroscopic model to determine minimum ignition energy has been proposed, where
the initial kernel size is correlated with the quenching distance of a mixture and evaluated from the quenching distance determined
from experiment. The simulation predicts minimum ignition energies of two sample mixtures successfully which are in a good
agreement with the experimental data for the ranges of pressure and equivalence ratio. 相似文献

When a column of droplets freely falling from an ultrasonic atomizer was ignited behind a reflected shock, no ignition occurred
at a temperature below 1100 K, even if the pressure was as high as IMPa. Although, a higher temperature condition ensured
ignition, no luminous flame was observable by high-speed photography, and even if a luminous flame lump appeared at an extremely
high temperature, it disappeared without spreading over the entire column of droplets in this case. It is known however that,
if a fuel is injected into a diesel cylinder or an electric furnace, ignition occurs even at a temperature as low as 650 K
with a luminous flame spreading over the entire spray. These differences could be caused by the effects of turbulent mixing
between fuel droplets and hot air, in fact, turbulence-generating rods were placed on the upstream side of the spray column.
Experimental results indicates that the ignition limit was lowered to 840 K, and the ignition delay period was decreased by
increasing the intensity of turbulence. Furthermore, the light emission of the flame was intensified, and normal spray combustion
was maintained in the low-temperature atmosphere after the shock tube ceased its operation. 相似文献

The flame speed may be decomposed into the burning speed and the flame transport speed. The flame transport speed is affected considerably by the flow direction, variation rate of flow direction, and flow speed in the combustion chamber. Especially, the flow direction and the variation rate of flow direction at the spark plug location during the ignition period have an important effect on the ignition process and the early flame propagation process. We measured the flow direction component and the variation rate of flow direction with a hot wire probe at the spark plug location. It was shown that the representative flow direction of ignition period is the right-vertical direction of crank shaft and it was used to investigate the variation rate of flow direction. 相似文献

This article reports the experimental and theoretical results for a spark ignition engine working with compressed natural
gas as a fuel. The theoretical part of this work uses a zero-dimensional, multi-zone combustion model in order to predict
nitric oxide (NO) emission in a spark ignition (SI) engine. The basic concept of the model is the division of the burned gas
into several distinct zones for taking into account the temperature stratification of the burned mixture during combustion.
This is especially important for accurate NO emissions predictions, since NO formation is strongly temperature dependent.
During combustion, 12 products are obtained by chemical equilibrium via Gibbs energy minimization method and nitric oxide
formation is calculated from chemical kinetic by the extended Zeldovich mechanism. The burning rate required as input to the
model is expressed as a Wiebe function, fitted to experimentally derived burn rates. The model is validated against experimental
data from a four-cylinder, four-stroke, SI gas engine (EF7) running with CNG fuel. The calculated values for pressure and
nitric oxide emissions show good agreement with the experimental data. The superiority of the multizone model over its two-zone
counterpart is demonstrated in view of its more realistic in-cylinder NO emissions predictions when compared to the available
experimental data. 相似文献

A fast response NO analyzer was applied to investigate the relation between cycle-by-cycle NO emissions and combustion chamber
pressure. NO emissions were sampled at an isolated exhaust manifold of 4-stroke spark ignition engine to avoid the interference
of exhaust gas from other cylinders. The linear correlation analysis was performed with collected data of NO emissions and
combustion chamber pressure with respect to the various air-fuel mixture ratios and engine loads. The sampled data sets were
obtained during 200 cycles at each operating condition. The results showed that there was a typical pattern in NO emissions
from an exhaust port through a cycle. It was possible to set a block of crank angle in which the linear correlation coefficient
between NO emissions and combustion chamber pressure was high. As the engine load increased, NO emissions were more dependent
on combustion chamber pressure after TDC. It was also analyzed that the correlation between two parameters with respect to
air-fuel mixture ratio tended to increase as mixture went leaner. Furthermore, this correlation coefficient for the mixture
near the lean limit seemed to be kept high even though combustion was unstable. 相似文献

A catalytic hot wire probe (CHWP) technique has been developed to estimate the local fuel concentration near the spark plug of a spark ignition engine. Knowledge of this local concentration is highly useful in studying the combustion process. The small fuel concentration variation is measured by superimposing a catalysis effect in the thermal balance of the hot wire. Various parameters such as pressure, temperature and sampling velocity have been tested for their effect on the hot wire catalytic response.To validate this CHWP technique, local fuel concentration was also measured by two optical diagnostic techniques: planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) and fuel/air ratio laser-induced exciplex fluorescence (FARLIEF). Comparison with PLIF measurements shows good agreement, and the capabilities and limitations of both techniques. With the FARLIEF/CHWP study, we can characterise the time and spatial variation of the fuel/air ratio in the vicinity of the spark plug in the gasoline direct injection engine. 相似文献

Mixtures of hydrogen and natural gas are promising for improving efficiency and reducing harmful emissions in spark ignition engines, since limits of flammability can be extended while stable combustion is secured. In this research, the combustion characteristics of long electrode spark plugs were evaluated in a hydrogen blended with natural gas (HCNG) engine. Decreases in the flame propagation distance through the use of spark plugs can lead to increased burning rates and further improvement of fuel economy in HCNG engines. An 11-liter heavy duty lean burn engine was employed and performance characteristics including emissions were assessed according to the spark timing of the minimum advance for best torque (MBT) for each operating condition. Retarded MBT spark advance timing with long electrode spark plugs due to increased burning speed supported increases in engine efficiency and reductions of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. The lower positions of initial flame kernels due to the use of long electrode spark plugs were preferable to improvements of cyclic variability due to reduced flame front quenching, and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions at the flammability limit were also improved. 相似文献

Compressed natural gas (CNG) is regarded as one of the most promising alternative fuels, and maybe the cleanest fuel for the sparkignition (SI) engine. In the SI engine, direct injection (DI) technology can significantly increase the engine volumetric efficiency and decrease the need of throttle valve. During low load and speed conditions, DI allows engine operation with the stratified charge, and the use of extremely lean fuel-air mixture enables relatively higher combustion efficiency. In this study, a combustion chamber with a visualization system is designed. The spray development and combustion propagation processes SIDI CNG were digital recorded. It was found that high injection pressure reduced the ignition probability significantly because of quenching of flame kernel. To improve the ignition probability, three kinds of impingement-walls were designed to help the mixture preparation. It was found that the CNG-air mixture can be easily formed after spray-wall impingement and the ignition probability was also improved. The results of this study can contribute important data for the design and optimization of spark-ignition direct injection (SIDI) CNG engine. 相似文献

This work is to investigate the combustion characteristics and flame propagation of the LPG (liquified petroleum gas) and
gasoline fuel. In order to characterize the combustion processes of the fuels, the flame propagation and combustion characteristics
were investigated by using a constant volume combustion chamber. The flame propagation of both LPG and gasoline fuels was
investigated by the laser deflection method and the high-speed Schlieren photography. The result of laser deflection method
show that the error of measured flame propagation speed by laser method is less than5% compared with the result of high-speed camera. The flame propagation speed of the fuel is increased with the decrease of
initial pressure and the increase of initial temperature in the constant volume chamber. The results also show that the equivalence
ratio has a great effect on the flame speed, combustion pressure and the combustion duration of the fuel-air mixture. 相似文献

In this study, it was attempted to obtain the fundamental data for the formation and oxidation of soot from a diesel engine.
Combustion of spray injected into a cylinder is complex phenomenon having physical and chemical processes, and these processes
affect each other. There are many factors in the mechanism of the formation and oxidization of soot and it is necessary to
observe spray combustion microscopically. In order to observe with that view, free fuel droplet array was used as an experimental
object and the droplet array was injected into an atmospheric combustion chamber with high temperature. Ambient temperature
of the combustion chamber, interdroplet spacing, and droplet diameter were selected as parameters, which affect the formation
and oxidation of soot. In this study, it was found that the parameters also affect ignition delay of droplet. The ambient
temperature especially affected the ignition delay of droplet as well as the flame temperature after self-ignition. As the
interdroplet spacing that means the local equivalence ratio in a combustion chamber was narrow, formation of soot was increased.
As diameter of droplet was large, surface area of the droplet was also broad, and hence evaporation of the droplet was more
active than that of a droplet with relative small diameter. 相似文献

In this paper, the radical induced (RI) ignition method was applied into a compressed natural gas (CNG) engine to achieve rapid bulk combustion. The experimental RI-CNG engine was modified from a diesel engine. The combustion chamber of the modified diesel engine was divided into a sub-chamber and a main-chamber. The sub-chamber is physically separated from the main-chamber above the piston and is connected to the main-chamber via several passage holes. CNG is injected into the sub-chamber during the intake stroke and then ignited before the top dead center (TDC) by a spark plug. As the ignition occurs in the sub-chamber, the pressure rises, forcing the gases which contain a number of active radicals out into the main-chamber to ignite the unburned mixture. The purpose of this paper is to study the engine operating limit and the combustion characteristics of the RI-CNG engine. The engine operating limit was accessed with different engine speeds and injection timings. The obtained data including the coefficient of variation (COV), brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), mass fraction burned and emissions were analyzed. 相似文献

The Representative Interactive Flamelet (RIF) concept has been applied to numerically simulate the combustion processes and
pollutant formation in the direct injection diesel engine. Due to the ability for interactively describing the transient behaviors
of local flame structures with CFD solver, the RIF concept has the capabilities to predict the auto-ignition and subsequent
flame propagation in the diesel engine combustion chamber as well as to effectively account for the detailed mechanisms of
soot formation, NOX formation including thermal NO path, prompt and nitrous NOX formation, and reburning process. Special emphasis is given to the turbulent combustion model which properly accounts for
vaporization effects on the mixture fraction fluctuations and the pdf model. The results of numerical modeling using the RIF
concept are compared with experimental data and with numerical results of the commonly applied procedure which the low-temperature
and high-temperature oxidation processes are represented by the Shell ignition model and the eddy dissipation model, respectively.
Numerical results indicate that the RIF approach including the vaporization effect on turbulent spray combustion process successfully
predicts the ignition delay time and location as well as the pollutant formation. 相似文献

In this paper, a numerical study to simulate and analyze the combustion process occurred in a compressed natural gas direct
injection (CNG-DI) engine by using a multi-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code was presented. The investigation
was performed on a single cylinder of the 1.6-liter engine running at wide open throttle at a fixed speed of 2000 rpm. The
mesh generation was established via an embedded algorithm for moving meshes and boundaries for providing a more accurate transient
condition of the operating engine. The combustion process was characterized with the eddy-break-up model of Magnussen for
unpremixed or diffusion reaction. The modeling of gaseous fuel injection was described to define the start and end of injection
timing. The utilized ignition strategy into the computational mesh was also explained to obtain the real spark ignition timing.
The natural gas employed is considered to be 100% methane (CH4) with three global step reaction scheme. The CFD simulation was started from the intake valves opening until the time before
exhaust valves opening. The results of CFD simulation were then compared with the data obtained from the single-cylinder engine
experiment and showed a close agreement. For verification purpose, comparison between numerical and experimental work are
in the form of average in-cylinder pressure, engine power as well as emission level of CO and NO.

A simplified method that models the deflagration process occurring in closed or vented vessels is described. When combustion
occurs within the spherical or cylindrical vessels, the flame moves spherically or segmentally to the vessel periphery. The
volume and area of each element along the propagating flame front are calculated by using simple geometrical rules. For instabilities
and turbulence resulting in enhanced burning rates, a simple analysis results in reasonable agreement with the experimental
pressure transients when two burning rates (a laminar burning rate prior to the onset of instability and an enhanced burning
rate) were used. Pressure reduction caused by a vent opening at predetermined pressure was modeled. Parameters examined in
the modeling include ignition location, mixture concentration, vented area, and vent opening pressure. It was found that venting
was effective in reducing the peak pressure experienced in vessels. The model can be expected to estimate reasonable peak
pressures and flame front distances by modeling the enhanced burning rates, that is, turbulent enhancement factor. 相似文献
