Abstract:

Based on the plateau environment simulation test bench, the power, economy and emission characteristics of the China VI diesel engine at different altitudes under full load and 40% load conditions are studied, and the possibility of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) blocking under 4 000 m altitude with the engine running continuously at low speed and high load conditions is also explored. The results show that the intake flow rate, air-fuel ratio, brake thermal efficiency, exhaust oxygen concentration and exhaust pressure of the engine decrease nonlinearly with the increase of altitude at full load and 40% load, while the brake specific fuel consumption rate, exhaust temperature and NO x emission increase by different degrees; the power and economy decrease significantly and the emission performance deteriorates. The full load operating condition is more sensitive to the change of altitude, especially the performance at low and high speed decreases more. When the China VI diesel engine operates continuously at 4 000 m altitude at low speed under high load conditions, a large amount of particles is deposited in the DPF but regeneration is difficult, and it is blocked within a short time.
