Abstract

This paper is the first investigation of the steady flow characteristics of an SI engine with a semi-wedge combustion chamber as a function of the port shape. For this purpose, the planar velocity profiles were measured at the 1.75B position by particle image velocimetry. The flow patterns were examined with both a straight and a helical port. Two swirls were observed up to 4 mm valve lift with the straight port and up to 2 mm with the helical one; however, only one swirl was present after these lifts. The flow characteristics changed suddenly between 4 and 5 mm lift in the straight port; on the other hand, the change with lift was gradual with the helical port - the transition points between flow regimes were different with the port shapes. In addition, the centers of the swirls were relatively far from the cylinder center so that the effect of eccentricity may not be negligible at 1.75B, regardless the shape. The eccentricity values with the straight port were especially high - over 0.5 for all lifts. Finally, real velocities were found to be much lower than those predicted by the assumption of ISM evaluation, with the profiles differing qualitatively as well.

본 논문은 반 쐐기형 연소실에서 포트 형상에 따른 정상유동 특성을 비교한 연구의 첫 번째로 통상적인 충격식 스월측정기 평가위치인 1.75B에서 입자영상유속계로 반 쐐기형 연소실에 직선형 포트와 나선형 포트를 적용하여 평면유속을 측정하고 비교하였다. 속도분포 분석 결과 직선형 포트에서는 밸브리프트 4 mm 이하, 그리고 나선형 포트에서는 2 mm 이하에서 두 개의 스월이 형성되고 이후 리프트가 증가하면 하나의 스월만 관찰된다. 리프트에 따른 유동체계의 천이점이 포트형상에 따라 상이하여 직선형 포트에서는 리프트 4 mm와 5mm를 경계로 유동 특성이 완전히 바뀌는 반면, 나선형 포트에서는 리프트 증가에 따라 점진적 변화만 관찰된다. 또한 모든 포트에서 1.75B 위치에서 편심도는 측정값이 왜곡되지 않는 범위에 들어오지 않고, 특히 직선형 포트의 편심도가 매우 크다. 동시에 포트형상에 관계없이 ISM 평가와 상응하는 실린더 중심 기준의 평균접선속도는 ISM 평가에서 가정한 속도보다 매우 낮고, 속도분포 특성도 ISM 평가의 가정과 매우 다르다.
