Heat loss to the combustion chamber wall with deposit in D.I. diesel engine: variation of instantaneous heat flux on piston surface with deposit

Abstract

Adhesion of deposit on the combustion chamber walls affects the state of the heat loss into combustion chamber wall surfaces in the internal combustion engine. In this study, as the first step, the instantaneous surface temperature and the instantaneous heat flux were measured by thin film thermocouples on piston surfaces in the D.I. diesel engine with the adhesion of deposit in order to clarify the effects of deposit. As a result, it is found that the instantaneous surface temperature and heat flux strongly depend on the amount of deposit adhered to the combustion chamber wall surfaces.
