This work was investigated on pilot injection strategy of blended fuels(Diesel-DME) for combustion and emissions in a single cylinder direct injection compression ignition engine. Diesel and DME were blended by the method of weight ratio. Weight ratios for diesel and DME were 95:05 and 90:10 respectively. dSOI between main and pilot injection timing was varied. A total amount of injected fuels(single injection) was adjusted to obtain the fixed BMEP as 4.2 bar in order to compare with the fuel conditions. Also, the amount of pilot injection fuel was varied by 5%, 10% and 20% of total injection fuel. The engine was equipped with common rail and injection pressure is 700 bar at 1200 rpm. As a result, when mixing ratio increase, indicated thermal efficiency was increased in comparison with DD 100 and CO, THC and smoke were lower than DD 100. The influence of reducing NOx by pilot injection was more effective than DD 100. When pilot injection quantity increase, abrupt increase of NOx was occured at pilot injection quantity of 20%.

The effect of pilot injection quantity on the combustion and emissions characteristics of a compression ignition engine with a biodiesel-compressed natural gas (CNG) dual fuel combustion (DFC) system is studied in this work. Biodiesel is used as a pilot injection fuel to ignite the main fuel, CNG of DFC. The pilot injection quantity is controlled to investigate the characteristics of combustion and exhaust emissions in a single cylinder diesel engine. The injection pressure and injection timing of pilot fuel are maintained at approximately 120 MPa and BTDC 17 crank angle, respectively. Results show that the indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP) of biodiesel-CNG DFC mode is similar to that of diesel-CNG DFC mode at all load conditions. Combustion stability of biodiesel-CNG DFC mode decreased with increase of engine load, but no notable trend of cycle-to-cycle variations with increase of pilot injection quantity is discovered. The combustion of biodiesel-CNG begins at a retarded crank angle compared to that of diesel-CNG at low load, but it is advanced at high loads. Smoke and NOx of biodiesel-CNG are simultaneously increased with the increase of pilot fuel quantity. Compared to the diesel-CNG DFC, however, smoke and NOx emissions are slightly reduced over all operating conditions. Biodiesel-CNG DFC yields higher $CO_2$ emissions compared to diesel-CNG DFC over all engine conditions. CO and HC emissions for biodiesel-CNG DFC is decreased with the increase of pilot injection quantity.

A direct injection diesel engine with large amount of exhaust gas recirculation was used to investigate low temperature diesel combustion. Pilot injection strategy was adopted in low temperature diesel combustion to reduce high carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon emissions. Combustion characteristics and exhaust emissions of low temperature diesel combustion under different pilot injection timings, pilot injection quantities and injection pressures were analyzed. Retarding pilot injection timing, increasing pilot injection quantity and higher injection pressure advanced main combustion timing and increased peak heat release rate of main combustion. As a result of these strategies, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon emissions were reduced. Soot emission was slightly increased with retarded pilot injection timing while the effect of pilot injection on nitrogen oxides emission was negligible under low combustion temperature condition. Spatial distribution of fuel from the spray targeting visualization was also investigated to provide more insight into the reason for the reduction in carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon emissions.

본 연구에서는 디젤 연료 온도에 따른 실제 분사되는 연료량, 분사율 그리고 거시적 분무 발달 과정에 대한 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 시험 결과 동일한 분사 시작 신호 및 분사 기간 신호를 입력하였음에도 불구하고, 연료 온도가 낮아짐에 따라 실제 연료 분사량이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 분사율 측정 결과를 통해 연료 온도가 낮은 조건에서 실제 분사 시작 시점이 지연되며, 실제 분사가 유지되는 기간이 짧아지는 것을 확인하였으며, 이를 통해 실제 분사되는 연료량 저감에 대한 근거를 찾을 수 있었다. 거시적 분무 이미지 촬영 결과를 연료 온도 별 분무 도달 거리로 표현하여 비교 하였으며, 낮은 연료 온도 조건에서 분무 미립화 성능 악화로 인해 분무 도달 거리가 길어지는 것을 확인하였다. 저온 조건에서의 연소 개선을 위해 향후 시도할 선행 평가로서 피스톤 타켓팅 평가를 수행하였으며, 이른 시기에 분사되는 파일럿 연료가 크레비스 영역으로 유입되는 것을 확인하였으며, 이를 통해 파일럿 분사 방식 적용 시 연료량 분배 및 분사 시기 선정이 매우 중요한 인자가 됨을 파악하였다.

The capability of pilot injection with small fuel quantity at all engine operating conditions is one of the main feature of the common rail direct injection system. The purpose of the pilot injection is to lower the engine noise and to reduce the NOx emissions. This study describes the pilot spray structure characteristics of the common-rail diesel injectors with different electric driving characteristics, including solenoid-driven and piezo-driven type. Namely three common-rail injectors with different electric current wave were investigated in this study. The pilot spray characteristics such as spray speed, spray tip penetration, and spray angle were obtained by spray images, which is measured by the back diffusion light illumination method with optical system for high-speed temporal photography. As this research results, it was found that pilot injection of common-rail system was effected by rate of injection with different electrical characteristic for injector driving.

디젤엔진은 저온 상태의 냉시동 조건에서 디젤 미립화 특성 악화로 인한 시동성 및 유해배출가스 생성의 문제를 안고 있다. 본 연구에서는 냉시동 시의 연소개선을 위한 방안으로 다단분사 전략 적용 시의 연소 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 냉시동성 개선을 위해 방안으로 다단분사 적용 시의 연소 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 정적 연소 챔버 내에 설치한 압력센서를 이용하여 취득한 연소압 및 열방출율, 직접 화염 가시화기법을 적용한 화염강도를 이용하여 연소현상을 분석하고자 하였다. 시험 결과 단일 분사 대비하여 다단 분사 적용 시, 주분사에 의한 최대 연소압력 및 열방출 상승률이 증가하며, 주분사에 의한 화염 감지 기간이 단축됨을 확인하였다. 파일럿 분사량 변경을 통해 분사량 증대 시 파일럿 연소에 의한 열방출 향상에 기인한 주분사에 의한 연소가 개선됨을 확인하였다. 또한 분사압력 증대 시 연료 미립화 개선으로 인한 연소개선을 화염 강도 증대를 통해 확인할 수 있었다. 다만 분사량 및 분사압 증대는 벽면적심현상으로 인한 HC, CO의 배출 수준 악화를 초래할 수 있으므로, 실제 엔진 개발 시 이에 대한 정밀한 선정이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Emission standards for passenger diesel engines are becoming more and more stringent. Especially, Europe started the regulation of nano-particles from 2011 with EURO 5b. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of fuel injection strategy on combustion and nano-particle emission in a small diesel engine. In this study, we conducted combustion analysis and measured both the weight of PM and number of nano-particels. At first, the optimum injection timing was determined with fixed engine operating conditions, such as engine speed, load, and fuel injection quantity. After that, the injection timing was controlled, and the effect of pilot injection was investigated. The number of nano-particles increased as engine load decreases, and it increased up to 10 times depending on the change of injection timing. The weight of PM emissions was increased at low load, and the PM emissions increased with increasing the number of pilot injections.

본 논문은 커먼레일 단기통 디젤엔진에서 다단 파일럿 분할 분사 전략이 연소 및 배기가스 배출특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 데 초점을 두었다. 실린더 내부 최고 압력과 열발생률은 단일분사 조건에서 가장 높았으며, 파일럿 분사량이 균등하게 분할되어 분사 횟수가 증가할수록 감소하는 경향으로 나타났다. IMEP, 엔진 토크 및 연소 효율은 1단 파일럿 분사 조건에서 가장 낮게 나타나는 특성을 보였으나, 다단 파일럿 분할 분사 전략 적용 시 증가하는 경향으로 분석되었다. COV_IMEP는 연소 효율이 가장 낮은 1단 파일럿 분사 조건에서 가장 높았으며, 이는 연소 안정성이 낮다는 것을 의미한다. 배기가스 중 산소농도는 단일분사 조건에서 가장 낮았고, 이산화탄소는 가장 높게 배출되는 특성을 보였다. 다단 분할 분사 전략 적용 시 저온 연소과정이 진행되기 때문에 일산화탄소의 산화율은 낮아지게 되고 배출수준은 증가하는 특성을 보였다. 탄화수소는 국부적으로 농후한 혼합기가 형성되는 단일분사 조건에서 가장 높은 결과를 보였다. 질소산화물은 다단 파일럿 분할 분사 전략 중 3단 파일럿 분사 조건에서 55.6%까지 감소하는 특성을 보였다.
