Abstract:

The influence of different pilot?injection strategies coupled with EGR on the combustion and emission characteristics of diesel/natural gas (DN) dual fuel engine are studied based on the three?dimensional fluid dynamics software. The results show that when the pilot diesel injection ratio (FDIR) is fixed and the pilot diesel injection timing (FDIT) is advanced beyond -10(°)CA ATDC, the burning center of gravity (CA 50) is closer to the top dead center. It is beneficial to reduce CH4, HC, CO and Soot emissions. But the NOx emission is higher than that of single injection and reaches the peak when the FDIT is advanced to -20(°)CA ATDC. When FDIT is advanced to -10(°)CA ATDC, the increase of FDIR has little influence on emission. When FDIT is advanced beyond -10(°)CA ATDC, larger FDIR can keep CH4, HC, CO and Soot emissions at a low level. As the EGR rate increases, the emissions of CH4, HC, CO, and Soot of different pilot?injection strategies are generally increased. When the EGR rate reaches 15%, the FDIT is advanced to -20(°)CA ATDC, and the FDIR is 30%, the emission value of each gas is generally lower than that of the single injection. When the EGR rate reaches 25%, the NOx emission of different pilot?injection strategies is reduced to the lowest level while the CO and Soot emissions exceed that of the single injection.
