Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of fuelinjection pressure onhomogeneous charge formation and performanceand emission characteristics of Homogeneous charge compression ignition engine. The fuel injection pressure isone of the primary parameter for improvingthe homogeneity of the mixture and governing the power output and emission characteristics of HCCI engine. In this investigation, diesel fuelwasinjected at different injection pressuresas 2bar, 3bar, 4bar and 5bar respectively throughbyport fuel injector. The experimental investigationsshow that increasing the fuel injection pressure will promote the fuel to penetrate with air and creates well pre mixedair/fuel charge.The result shows, the specific fuel consumption (SFC) of HCCI engine isslightlyhigherthan the SFC of conventional diesel engine.The HCCI engine with 3bar injection pressure operated engine has lower SFC values compared to other injection pressure operated HCCI engine.The brake thermal efficiency of HCCI engine, operated with 3barinjection pressure has maximum BTE values over the other injection pressure operated engine.From theresult, it is observed that HCCI engine has lower smoke density values compared to conventional diesel engine andfurther reducedby increasing the fuel injection pressure. The 3bar injection pressure operated HCCI engine has emitted lower smoke densitycompared to other injection pressure operated HCCI engine. The 3bar injection pressureoperated HCCIengine hasemittedmaximum oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions than the other injection pressure operated HCCI engine. Other exhaust emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon (HC)emissions are increased when compared toconvention diesel engine
