Abstract

Combustion processes in an optically-accessible single-cylinder heavy-duty diesel engine equipped with a highpressure common-rail injection system were investigated for JP-8 and diesel. Direct imaging and two-color thermometry were employed to verify the emission trend for both fuels. The combustion process was characterized by image analysis with focus on luminosity. The results of two-color thermometry were analyzed on the basis of the flame temperature and KL factor distribution. Analysis of the combustion process by direct imaging showed that the ignition delay was longer for JP-8 than for diesel, while the flame was extinguished rapidly. Analysis of the flame luminosity showed that the combustion intensity was higher for diesel and that the flame lasted for a longer duration in this case. Two-color thermometry results showed that the high-temperature region extended over a large area during JP-8 combustion, implying the formation of a large amount of $NO_x$. In addition, the KL factor showed low level over a large area and relatively homogeneous in the case of JP-8 combustion, which implied that less smoke was produced when using this fuel.

커먼레일 분사 시스템이 장착된 대형 단기통 가시화 엔진에서 디젤과 JP-8 의 연소 및 배기 특성을 분석하였다. 두 연료 적용 시, 배기 배출 경향을 분석하기 위해 직접 화염가시화와 이색법을 적용하였다. 연소 과정은 직접 화염 가시화로부터 화염 강도 분석을 통해 이루어 졌다. 이색법 결과는 화염 온도 및 KL 값을 도출하여 분석을 하였다. 직접 화염 가시화 결과, JP-8 연소 시, 점화 지연 기간이 길며, 디젤 연소에 비해 화염이 빠르게 소멸되는 것을 확인하였다. 화염 강도 분석을 통해 디젤 연소의 경우, 연소 전 기간에 걸쳐 높은 화염 강도 수준을 유지하며 화염 지속 기간이 긴 것을 알 수 있었다. 이색법 결과를 통해, JP-8 연소의 경우, 국부적으로 고온의 화염 면이 더 많이 분포하는 것을 확인하였으며, 이는 $NO_x$가 더 많이 배출된 경향을 설명해준다. 또한 KL 치 분석 결과, JP-8 연소 시 낮은 수준의 KL 값이 더 고르게 분포하는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 JP-8 연소 시 스모크 가 덜 배출된 결과를 뒷받침 해준다.
