We propose a model based control strategy to adapt the injection settings according to the air path dynamics on a Diesel HCCI engine. This approach complements existing airpath and fuelpath controllers, and aims at accurately controlling the start of combustion. For that purpose, start of injection is adjusted based on a Knock Integral Model and intake manifold conditions. Experimental results ...

A control-oriented two-zone charge mixing model is developed to simplify, but to describe mixing of fresh charge and residual gas during the intake stroke. Engine valve timing has a strong influence on the realization of stable homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI), since it affects turbulent flow that promotes mixing of fresh charge and residual gas. Controlled auto-ignition of a HCCI...

in order to comply with stringent pollutant emissions regulations, a detailed analysis of the engine combustion and emission is required. in this field, computational tools like cfd and engine cycle simulation play a fundamental role. therefore, the goal of the present work is to simulate a high speed di diesel engine and study the combustion and major diesel engine emissions with more details,...

IJSER © 2013 http://www.ijser.org Abstract: The Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition Engine, HCCI, has the potential to combine the best of the Spark. Ignition and Compression Ignition Engines. With high octane number fuel the engine operates with high compression ratio and lean mixtures giving CI engine equivalent fuel consumption or better. Due to premixed charge without rich or stoichiome...

Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is a futuristic combustion technology that operates with high efficiency and reduced emissions. HCCI combustion is characterized by complex nonlinear dynamics which necessitates the use of a predictive model in controller design. Developing a physics based model for HCCI involves significant development times and associated costs arising from devel...

In this paper, a computational in-cylinder analysis of HCCI diesel engine was carried out using IC Engine FORTE (ANSYS 18.2) software package. The analysis used pre-defined industry standard CHEMKIN format for specifying a chemical reaction mechanism during the combustion duration. The investigation was carried out for the effects of various EGR mass percentages on the thermal and emission char...

A motion planning based control strategy is proposed for the airpath control of turbocharged Diesel engines using exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). The considered model uses simple balance equations. The fully actuated dynamics are easily inverted, yielding straightforward open-loop control laws. This approach is complemented by experimentally derived look-up tables to cast the drivers requests ...

An on-the-fly mechanism reduction approach is employed in this paper to integrate detailed chemical kinetics with a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. The reduction methodology employs an instantaneous element flux analysis to identify redundant species and reactions for given local conditions. The emphasis of this work is focused on the numerical study of homogeneous charge compression i...

Problem statement: This study describes the use of Reformer Gas (RG) to alter NOx emission in a CNG-fueled HCCI engine. Comparison with diesel, natural gas has a very high octane number (≈120) and high auto-ignition temperature (≈600°C). Composed mostly of methane, natural gas is the only common fuel to manifest relatively pure, single-stage combustion. Other fuels have stronger low-temperature...
