Effect of Cylinder Air Pressure and Hot Surface Temperature on Ignition Delay of Diesel Spray in a Constant Volume Combustion Chamber
Present-day direct injection (DI) diesel engines with a high power density of displacement are not just promoting an expansion in the utilization of high-temperature resistant alloys in pistons yet, in addition, the expanded cylinder air pressures. When the temperature of the diesel engines piston e...

Present-day direct injection (DI) diesel engines with a high power density of displacement are not just promoting an expansion in the utilization of high-temperature resistant alloys in pistons yet, in addition, the expanded cylinder air pressures. When the temperature of the diesel engines piston exceeds a certain limit, it assumes a critical role at the start of sprays. The target of the present investigation was to look at the effects of cylinder air pressures (CAP) (10−25 bar) and high hot surface temperatures (HST) (350−450 °C). The ignition delay (ID) of pure diesel and that of diesel with Iftex clean system D (a cetane enhancer) are investigated experimentally. The experiments are performed by using a constant volume combustion chamber (CVCC) with a single hole pintle-type nozzle mounted on its head. A strong dependence of ID on the CAPs and HSTs was observed. A CAP of 25 bar is much inferior to the precombustion pressure of DI diesel engines; however, it is the case that combustion typical features are the same in spite of an inferior CAP, HST, and injection pressure. The ID tends to decrease to very small values with an increase in either of the two parameters. At a CAP of 25 bar, the measured ID of diesel with fuel additive is 45.8% lower than the pure diesel. Further, the ID of diesel with fuel additive at a 300 bar injection pressure and 25 bar CAP decreases at a rate of close to 0.2 ms/bar. |
