Abstract

A study of the performance effect of Indolene-Methanol Plus High Alcolhols (MPHA) has been completed. The study invested the measurement of performance parameters. The performance parameters measured are minimum advance for best torque (MBT) spark timing, power output and thermal efficiency. The alcohol concentration was varied from 0 to 100 percent by volume in clear Indolene. The performance parameters were measured using a single cylinder spark ignition engine at different compression ratios. The results of the performance measurements indicated that Indolene-MPHA blends have a higher MBT spark advance, similar power output and lower thermal efficiencies than Indolene-Methanol blends.

본 논문에서는 Indolene-MPHA(Methanol Plus High Alcohols)가 엔진성능에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구가 이루어졌다. 본 연구에서는 연료의 성능 인자를 측정하였다. 특히 연료의 성능 인자들인 MBT 점화 시기, 출력, 열효율 등이 측정되었다. 여기에서 알콜 농도는 청정 Indolene의 체적에 따라서 0∼100%까지 변화시켰다. 연료의 성능 인자들은 서로 다른 압축비에서 단기통 스파크점화 엔진을 사용하여 측정하였다. 성능 측정결과에 따르면 Indolene-MPHA 혼합물이 Indolene-Methanol 혼합물보다 빠른 MBT 점화 시기와 유사한 출력 그리고 낮은 열효율을 나타내고 있음을 알 수 있다.
