16th INTERNATIONAL COMBUSTION SYMPOSIUM (INCOS 2022), Aydın, Türkiye, 8 - 11 Eylül 2022, cilt.1, sa.1, ss.313-314
Population growth and the
development of the world economy increase the demand for oil. This situation
has led scientists to search for alternative fuels and new combustion
technologies that reduce emissions. In this study, the effect of a two-stage
injection system on engine performance and emissions was investigated.
Experiments were carried out in a diesel engine with two cylinders, four
strokes, and an injection system converted from a mechanical to a common rail
type system. In the experiments, pure diesel fuel was used at three different
loads (0%, 25%, and 50%) conditions and different first and second injection
advances. Experimental results showed that the thermal efficiency was highest
when the second injection advance was 351 CAD at all load conditions. It has
been shown that CO emissions increase from 335 CAD, where the second injection
time starts, to the last injection advance. While there is no significant
change in HC emissions at 20 Nm load, but there is uncertainty at 10 Nm load.
On the other hand, NO emissions decrease significantly as the second injection
time closes to the TDC.
