Abstract

The purpose of this study is experimentally to analyze that the fuel mass fractions of multi-component mixed fuels have an effect on the characteristics of spray ignition and combustion under the ambient conditions of diesel combustion fields. The characteristics of ignition and combustion were investigated by chemiluminescence images and direct photography. The experiments were conducted in the RCEM(rapid compression expansion machine) with optical access. Multi-component fuels mixed with i-octane, n-dodecane and n-hexadecane are injected in RCEM by the electronic control of common rail injector. Experimental conditions set up 42, 72 and 112 MPa in injection pressure, 700, 800 and 900 K in ambient gas temperature. The results show that the ignition delay was dependent on high cetane number. In case of low ambient temperature, the more low boiling point fuels were mixed, the lower luminance regime had a remarkable effect and also shortened diffusion combustion by increasing heat release rate.

본 연구의 목적은 디젤연소장의 분위기조건에 따라 다성분 혼합연료의 질량분률이 분무착화 및 연소특성에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 고찰하는데 있다. 착화 및 연소특성은 화학발광계측법 및 직접촬영법을 이용하여 분석되었다. 실험은 광계측기를 사용하여 RCEM에서 이루어졌으며, 이소옥탄, 노말 도데칸, 노말 헥사데칸으로 혼합한 다성분연료는 커먼레일 인젝터의 전자제어에 의해 RCEM의 연소실 내로 분사된다. 실험조건은 분사압력 42, 72, 112 MPa과 분위기온도 700, 800, 900 K로 하였다. 그 결과로서 착화지연은 고세탄가성분에 의존하고, 분위기온도가 낮을 경우 저비점성분 혼합비율의 증가에 따라 휘도영역이 현저하게 낮아지며, 열발생률이 증가하면서 확산연소기간을 단축시킨다.
