Features of liquid-fuel plasma-chemical gasification for diesel engines

Under the present-day conditions all over the world, the attention is directed to the development of the methods protecting the environment from hazardous emission. One of the most advanced methods for a working process efficiency increasing is the combustion intensification using an air plasma (2000-3500 K). Plasma-chemical technology is used as an effective tool in accelerating the rate of chemical and physical processes. The experimental investigation of the plasma-chemical gasification system has been carried out on the motor bench stand with the dieseloperating volume 624 cm(3). The most considerable soot emission reduction of 30% has been achieved at the nominal engine mode.
