The effect of air and spray turbulence in a D.I. diesel engine on the flame progress

直接噴射式 디이젤機關의 燃燒室形狀과 火焰의 發達

For the favorable performance of a D.I. diesel engine, it is important to improve the mixture formation process and the ensuing early stage of combustion process. In the present paper, high speed photography was employed to investigate the effectiveness of a cavity digged in a piston crown for some more useful utilization of air. The cavity would function to improve mixing of fuel and air by the increase of turbulence of air and by the impingement of fuel spray on the cavity wall. The results obtained are summarized as follows: (1) From an aspect of thermal efficiency, it is effective to inject the spray tangentially to the cavity wall to enlarge the area of spray evaporation. (2) some deductions obtained from previous investigations using a hot air stream duct are supported by the present results. For example, it is effective for the quick development of flames throughout the combustion chamber to mix the evaporated fuel of main spray with the intermediates brought about by the early stage of combustion of the preceded auxiliary fuel spray.

본 논문에서는 앞서의 연구들에서 얻은 연구성과를 실제의 디이젤기관에 적용 시켜 화염의 발달상태와 기관속도의 상승 등을 고찰하여, 그 유효성을 평가했다. 또 고온공기류덕트에서는 실험하기가 곤란했던, 분무자체에 족회운동을 일으킨 경우의 연 소과정에 대해서도 피스톤요부의 벽면에 충돌하는 분무의 각도를 변화시켜, 고속도 화 염사진으로 부터 검토했다.
