Abstract
To study the effect of the spray angles of the dual-layer hole nozzle on the combustion and emissions performance in the partition combustion system, the in-cylinder spray, mixture formation and combustion processes of the new combustion system were simulated and investigated using AVL FIRE software. The results show that, compared with the variation of the lower-layer spray angles, the change of the upper-layer spray angles has a great influence on the instantaneous heat release rate. The increasing spray angles of the lower-layer holes lead to reduced peak values of the heat release rate in the cylinder. In all the spray angle cases, the first fire area of the cylinder is in the B zone of the combustion chamber. Compared with lower-layer spray angle, the upper-layer spray angle has a greater impact on the airflow disturbance in the combustion chamber. Appropriately increasing the upper-layer spray angle facilitates the mixing of fuel and air in the combustion chamber and reduces the unburnt fuel equivalence ratio. When the spray angles of the upper- and lower-layer holes are 157° and 112°, respectively, the combustion indicates power has the largest value of 12.18 kW. At the same time, the Soot emission is also the smallest, with a value of 0.52 g/kW·h.
