Prediction of the effect of injection parameters on NO x emission and burning quality in the direct injection diesel engine using a modified multizone model

Abstract Combustion process in a quiescent chamber diesel engine is modelled using a multizone model. This model divides the cylinder charge into two zones, namely the unburnt zone (surrounding air) and the burnt zone (fuel spray with entrained air). The burnt zone is subdivided into 16 concentric sprays, instead of only eight sprays as in previous work, each one with its own temperature and composition. Liquid fuel, fuel vapour, air and products of combustion are assumed to be present in each zone. Real gas relations are used to calculate the properties of the mixture while products of combustion are assumed to be in chemical equilibrium at local temperature. The extended Zeldovich mechanism is used to predict the NO x formation. The cylinder pressure, temperature, heat release rate, NO x rate and concentration are calculated. For different injection pressures, injection advance angles and different fuel orifice hole diameters, the results show that the model can predict the measured cylinder pressure with high accuracy but it predicts the measured heat release rate and NO x emission rate with moderate accuracy. In addition, the effect of injection parameters on the NO x emission and engine power is predicted and it has been shown that NO x emission can be reduced without noticeable loss of engine power. This can be done by appropriate choice of injection pressure, injection advance angle and fuel nozzle hole diameters.
