Abstract
Partially premixed combustion aims to reduce NOx and particulate matter emission without fuel consumption penalty. Low temperature heat release (LTHR) is an important process to be investigated. A novel motoring pressure prediction algorithm based on variable polytropic exponents was introduced and utilized to estimate average heat transfer coefficient as well as heat dissipation for real-time applications. A series of parameters, such as start of combustion (SOC) of LTHR, crank angle of 50% heat released (CA50) during LTHR, duration of LTHR and heat amount of LTHR, were further analyzed under different engine operation conditions. The results demonstrated that: (1) the absolute motoring pressure prediction error was below 0.5 bar with a... (More)
Partially premixed combustion aims to reduce NOx and particulate matter emission without fuel consumption penalty. Low temperature heat release (LTHR) is an important process to be investigated. A novel motoring pressure prediction algorithm based on variable polytropic exponents was introduced and utilized to estimate average heat transfer coefficient as well as heat dissipation for real-time applications. A series of parameters, such as start of combustion (SOC) of LTHR, crank angle of 50% heat released (CA50) during LTHR, duration of LTHR and heat amount of LTHR, were further analyzed under different engine operation conditions. The results demonstrated that: (1) the absolute motoring pressure prediction error was below 0.5 bar with a relative error below 4%; (2) the average heat released during LTHR was about 40–65 J, and the mass burned was about 1–3% of the total mass burned; (3) CA50 of LTHR was more stable than SOC of LTHR, and was a better indicator for real-time combustion phase control; (4) similar combustion phase and heat amount of LTHR could be reached by adjusting the timing of the third injection regardless the difference in timing of the second injection; (5) the combustion phase and heat amount of LTHR could be controlled by the duration of the second injection.
