Abstract
To investigate the influence of diesel engine operating matching parameters on the comprehensive fuel consumption rate of butanol-diesel dual-fuel engines, a high-pressure combustion chamber cycle model of a 4190ZLC-2 marine medium-speed diesel engine was established using AVL-FIRE simulation software. After establishing the optimum blending ratio of butanol, the fuel system parameters were optimized using a one-time regression orthogonal experimental design method, and a mathematical model for fuel consumption rate prediction was constructed to find the combination of parameters with the lowest fuel consumption rate as the target. The study shows that inlet pressure has the greatest influence on the fuel consumption rate, followed by EGR and inlet air temperature. The lowest fuel consumption rate was achieved by combining the following parameters: (butanol blending ratio of 20%, EGR rate 0, inlet pressure 0.233 MPa, inlet temperature 325.15 K, Injection advance angle 22.6 °CA, the diameter of oil injection hole (0.26 mm); after optimization, the fuel consumption rate was reduced by 9.96% compared to the original machine.
