Abstract

This paper describes the homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine for a new concept. HCCI engines are being considered as a future alternative for diesel and gasoline engines. HCCI engines have the potential for high indicated thermal efficiency under part load and very low NOx emissions. The objective of this paper is to clear the effects of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rate on the HCCI. For this purpose, a 4-cylinder, compression ignition engine was converted into a HCCI engine This work has been run with propane and butane fuels at a constant speed.

이 논문은 새로운 개념의 엔진으로 균질혼합압축점화기관(HCCI)에 대해서 이야기 하고 있다. HCCI 엔진은 디젤기관과 가솔린기관의 미래대체엔진으로 고려되고 있다. HCCI엔진은 부분부하에서 높은 지시열효율과 매우 낮은 질소산화물을 배출하는 잠재력 있는 엔진이다.이 논문의 목적은HCCI 엔진에서 의 배기가스재순환(EGR)의 효과를 분명히 하는데 있다. 이러한 연구목적을 위해서 4실린더 압축점화기관이 HCCI 기관으로 개조가 되었다.이 작업은 일정한 회전속도에서 프로판과 부탄의 연료를 사용하였다.
