Abstract
The diesel-LNG (liquefied natural gas) dual-fuel combustion mode was conducted on a high-pressure common-rail six-cylinder diesel engine to find an assistant parameter to assess the brake thermal efficiency (ηe) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission of the diesel-LNG dual-fuel engine. The results show that the diesel injection timing has a prominent impact on the centroid angle of combustion duration (α) which is closely related to ηe and NOx emission. At low and medium loads, when α is near to top dead center (TDC) and is after TDC, the ηe and NOx emission are higher. Nevertheless, when α is before TDC, the result of NOx emission is opposite. Therefore, for optimal ηe and NOx emission at low and medium loads, it would be the best way altering diesel injection timing to retard α to ATDC and ensuring α in 1–2°CA ATDC.
