Abstract
Based on the analysis of the plateau performance for a 6 cylinder 8.6 L turbocharged diesel engine, a novel gas turbocharging system (GTS) is proposed to recover the engine power at high altitudes. Besides, a rolling-reflux combustor is designed to meet the structural requirements of GTS as well as to reduce the flow loss. Both the structure of the rolling-reflux combustor and the cycle thermal calculation of the GTS were described in detail in present work. The performance changes and the fuel consumption rate with engine speed at different altitudes of the GTS are compared to the original engine. Results show that when the altitude changes from 3 km to 5 km, the torque and power of the diesel engine with GTS can be recovered to that at sea level. Then, the particle image velocimetry (PIV) test is performed to study the cold flow field at the cylinder head of the rolling-reflux combustor, and the flow conditions are analyzed in detail. Finally, the flow bench is built and the aerodynamic experiment is carried out to verify the effectiveness of GTS.
