A phenomenological modelling framework for particle emission simulation in a direct-injection gasoline engine

Stefan Frommater et al.

Summary: A phenomenological modelling framework is proposed to simulate engine-out particle emissions of direct-injection gasoline engines based on physical principles. The framework incorporates a multi-zone model with gas-phase reaction kinetics and a stochastic reactor model considering soot formation dynamics, fed by inputs from an engine process simulation. The model accounts for injector deposits, inhomogeneous gaseous mixture preparation, and pyrolysis reactions in different zones.

Effect of in-cylinder air-water interaction on water evaporation and performance characteristics of a direct water injected GDI engine

Ankit A. Raut et al.

Summary: Water injection is a promising strategy for modern downsized GDI engines to meet performance and emission requirements, but its benefits depend on injector location and orientation affecting water evaporation and distribution inside the combustion chamber.

Particulate emissions from direct-injection and combined-injection vehicles fueled with gasoline/ethanol match-blends-Effects of ethanol and aromatic compositions

Mengzhu Zhang et al.

Summary: The study found that substituting ethanol for some C8 alkanes in gasoline increased particulate number (PN) but decreased particulate mass (PM) emissions. For vehicles using the combined port fuel injection (PFI)/gasoline direct injection (GDI) systems, both PM and PN emissions increased. The concentration of aromatic compounds significantly impacted particulate emissions, with heavy aromatics resulting in multiplied PM and PN emissions for both GDI and combined-injection vehicles.

Improvement of combustion and emission by combined combustion of ethanol premix and gasoline direct injection in SI engine

Ze Liu et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the effects of different ethanol-gasoline ratios, direct injection timing, and ignition timing on the combustion and emissions of a SI engine. The results suggest that G25 with EPI + GDI is the best mode for high-efficiency combustion, and G25 with IT = 20°CA BTDC and DIT = 120°CA BTDC is the optimal operating condition for highest torque output. Additionally, particle number emissions show variations with different ethanol-gasoline ratios.

Effect of oxidation temperature on oxidation reactivity and nanostructure of particulate matter from a China VI GDI vehicle

Zhiyuan Hu et al.

Summary: The study found that ultra-fine particles below 23 nm in diameter make up the majority of emissions in GDI vehicle exhaust, but as the oxidation temperature increases, the peak diameter of emitted particles shifts towards larger sizes.

Spark ignition engine performance, standard emissions and particulates using GDI, PFI-CNG and DI-CNG systems

Mindaugas Melaika et al.

Summary: The study investigated the performance of gaseous fuels in a spark ignition engine, showing that they can improve engine efficiency, reduce emissions, and provide stable combustion. The results indicated that DI-CNG combustion had the best performance among different injection systems, with lower particulate emissions.

Dual injection: An effective and efficient technology to use renewable fuels in spark ignition engines

Yuhan Huang et al.

Summary: Dual injection engines, using renewable fuels such as ethanol, methanol and hydrogen, have advantages including greater control flexibility, knock mitigation, engine downsizing, extended lean-burn limits, higher thermal efficiency and reductions of several emission species. Each renewable fuel targets different advantages of dual injection, with alcohol-gasoline dual injection providing anti-knock ability and hydrogen-gasoline dual injection extending lean-burn limits. Dual injection generally demonstrates higher thermal efficiency than single injection and effectively reduces particulate emissions.
