Effect of injection strategy on a diesel/methanol dual-fuel direct-injection engine

Zhiyong Li et al.

Summary: This study investigates three injection strategies of methanol direct-injection method and compares the optimal settings at low load and high load. The results show differences in fuel economy and knock intensity among different injection strategies. Ultimately, M/D/M mode is found to be the best injection strategy at low load and high load.

Chemical feature of the soot emissions from a diesel engine fueled with methanol-diesel blends

Chenyang Fan et al.

Summary: The chemistry of soot particles plays a crucial role in the emissions of engines, specifically in relation to soot growth and oxidation behaviors. Adding methanol to diesel fuel is believed to alter these behaviors, but the exact mechanisms are not well understood. This study characterized the chemical features of soot emissions from a methanol-diesel blend fueled diesel engine, revealing the impact of methanol blending content on the surface and bulk species of the soot particles under different engine load conditions.

Combined effects of excess air ratio and EGR rate on combustion and emissions behaviors of a GDI engine with CO2 as simulated EGR (CO2) at low load

Changming Gong et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that simulated EGR (CO2) has a weaker impact on combustion compared to actual EGR, and results in increased peak cylinder pressure, heat release rate, and cylinder temperature under the same EGR rate and excess air ratio conditions. Additionally, simulated EGR (CO2) can improve the COVimep of the engine, while having minimal effect on CO and HC emissions in lean-burn and stoichiometric conditions. Overall, NOX and soot emissions decrease significantly with EGR rate, but soot emissions from simulated EGR (CO2) are higher than actual EGR under any excess air ratios.
