Review of the backfire occurrences and control strategies for port hydrogen injection internal combustion engines

Jianbing Gao et al.

Summary: Hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines offer zero carbon emissions and excellent combustion characteristics, but the occurrence of backfire in port hydrogen injection engines can limit engine performance improvement, requiring effective control strategies. Backfire control strategies have specific application conditions to ensure their effectiveness and prevent negative impacts.

Comparative study on the combustion and emissions of dual-fuel common rail engines fueled with diesel/methanol, diesel/ethanol, and diesel/n-butanol

Zhanming Chen et al.

Summary: A comparative study on the effects of energy substitution ratio (ESR) on the combustion characteristics and performance of a dual fuel engine fueled with diesel/alcohols was conducted. Premixed combustion of diesel was influenced by alcohol enrichment, affecting ignition delay and combustion duration. Methanol was found to be most beneficial in prolonging ignition delay and shortening combustion duration. Energy substitution ratio also affected brake thermal efficiency (BTE) and NOx emissions differently for different alcohol types.

Numerical simulation on the combustion and NOx emission characteristics of a turbocharged opposed rotary piston engine fuelled with hydrogen under wide open throttle conditions

Jianbing Gao et al.

Summary: Hybrid vehicles are gaining attention due to environmental concerns, and Opposed Rotary Piston (ORP) engines are seen as a promising power source for these vehicles. Research on a turbocharged ORP engine fueled with hydrogen revealed high volumetric efficiency and excellent torque characteristics, with a maximum indicated power density significantly higher than turbocharged four-stroke reciprocating engines fueled with gasoline.

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.
