Experimental analysis on the influence of compression ratio, flow rate, injection pressure, and injection timing on the acetylene - diesel aspirated dual fuel engine.

The predicted scarcity, increasing cost of petroleum fuels, and environmental degradation are encouraging researchers to search for alternative fuels throughout the world. Hence, it is intended to utilize acetylene-based DF in the compression ignition (CI) engine with minor modifications. An engine of 5 Hp, four stroke, single-cylinder, water-cooled operated in dual-fuel (DF) mode (acetylene gas-diesel), aiming to reduce the emissions, was deployed to investigate its characteristics. In DF mode, gaseous fuel is injected through intake air manifold with 2, 4, and 6 lpm constantly. According to the research findings, the gas rate of 6 lpm provides the best results, having a superior BTE of 30.7%. Various compression ratios (16:1, 18:1, and 20:1) were used to determine the optimal compression ratio (CR) under a volume flow rate of 6 lpm with diesel. Fuel injector pressure (200, 220, and 240bar) with injector intervals (19°, 23°, and 27°bTDC) were changed consecutive sequence while adjusting CR, and the best outcomes for improved CI fuel efficiency were determined. From the investigational analysis, the peak in-cylinder pressure and net HRR (heat release rate) are assessed for being better by the increment in CR in DF mode of operation with an acetylene gas of 6 lpm at all operating settings. At a 240bar injection pressure, the BTE is recorded highest (35.1%), and smoke was decreased. An IT of 23obTDC, the CO and HC were found as to be minimum as 28ppm and 0.04ppm.

Effect of Shorea robusta methyl ester biodiesel blends on the exergy and sustainability analysis of diesel engine

ABSTRACT In this experimental investigation, the impact of engine load, compression ratio, and percentage blends of biofuel on exergy, energy, and sustainability parameters for the samples of diesel based (10–40% v/v) biodiesel blends were performed on variable compression ratio engine. The brake thermal efficiency, exergy efficiency, engine sustainability, exergy destruction rate, and other exergy parameters were found to escalate with the escalating engine load, compression ratio, and percentage of Shorea robusta methyl ester biodiesel fuel blends. The exergy and energy efficiency of the engine with diesel fuel were 2.05%, 6.98%, and 10.63%, respectively higher than 10%, 30%, and 40% Shorea robusta methyl ester fuel and 2.23%, 8.67%, and 9.22%, respectively at 50% engine load and 1500 rpm engine speed. The influence of compression ratio, engine load, and fuel blends on the exergetic performance parameters revealed a similar trend with energetic parameters, but the magnitude of exergy parameters was found lower than the energetic parameters. The application of Shorea robusta methyl ester biodiesel blends improved the combustion characteristics with a small drop in energy and exergy performance parameters and sustainability of the engine. The exergy destruction rate and entropy generation rate for shorea robusta methyl ester biodiesel blend were found lower than the conventional fuel. Therefore, the fuel blend have a high potential to be an alternate to the conventional fuel without any design modification of diesel engines.

The study found that 2.5 increment value of the compression ratio significantly increases the effective pressure of about 41.53% on the starting of the expansion stroke. While at the end of the compression stroke, the rise of effective pressure is about 76.67%, and the changes in dynamic irregularity merely increase by about 1.79%. The same trend applies to the flywheel diameter and width, which increases 2.08% for both.

The selected three pistons enable to study the significance of CR (in the range of 6–9) and piston crown geometry to achieve the optimal configuration. The experimental results have revealed that increase in CR in a close range of 8:1 with larger cleavage on piston crown geometry enhances engine performance for Biogas fuelled small S.I. engine 100 cc category. It has been observed during comparative analysis that the maximum power produced by the biogas fuelled engine has improved by 13.4%, BSEC has increased by 23.30% and there is an 18.18% improvement in BSFC.

Mechanical behavior and sealing performance of metal sealing system in roller cone bits

Metal sealing system is used frequently in the dynamic rotary seal of downhole tools of petroleum, natural gas and mining. Mechanical behavior and sealing performance of the metal sealing system in roller cone bit were analyzed in this paper. Influences of pressure difference, compression ratio, fluid pressure, angle and thermal load on the metal sealing system’s mechanical behavior and seal performance were studied. The results show that the effect of pressure difference should be considered under fluid pressure. The von Mises stress concentrates on the inside of O-rings under the influence of compression ratio. The low-stress area appears on the inside of O-rings under the effect of fluid pressure. The high-stress concentration area of metal sealing surface appears on the surface of metal rings under different angles. Sealing performance, compression ratio, fluid pressure and angle have the same change trend. Thermal load is not a single impact on the stress distribution and deformation, but together with fluid pressure affects the sealing performance. The dynamic O-ring more easily fails than the static O-ring. Those results can provide a new direction for the structural optimization of metal sealing system in roller cone bits.

Experimental Investigation into the Influence of Compression Ratio on Operating Characteristics of Single Cylinder CNG Engine with Port Injection

This paper indicates the early experimental results of a Ricardo model CNG engine R&D activity in Vietnam, the experiments were mainly focused on the effects of compression ratio on operating parameters of the tested single cylinder CNG engine particularly designed and fabricated for varying compression ratio purpose. The compression ratio was set in the range of ε = 10 to 15 with the change step of Δε = 1. For each compression ratio, the engine speed were varried from 1000rpm to 2200rpm with the change step of Δn = 200. The early spark angle was also changed to find out the maximum break torque. The limitation of compression ratio and engine speed at each operating point was determined by vibration signal and abnormal sound. The experimental results indicated the early spark angle must be adjusted premature in case of compression ratio and/or engine speed enhenced. Especially, the portion of indispensable power to perform the compression stroke is smaller in comparison with the portion to execute the both strokes of intake and exhaust. In addition, the shape of combustion chamber affected strongly the operating characteristics also found in this study.

Thermodynamic performance of Dual-Miller cycle (DMC) with polytropic processes based on power output, thermal efficiency and ecological function

This study reports a new model of an air standard Dual-Miller cycle (DMC) with two polytropic processes and heat transfer loss. The two reversible adiabatic processes which could not be realized in practice are replaced with two polytropic processes in order to more accurately reflect the practical working performance. The heat transfer loss is taken into account. The expressions of power output, thermal efficiency, entropy generation rate (EGR) and ecological function are addressed using finite-time thermodynamic theory. Through numerical calculations, the influences of compression ratio, cut-off ratio and polytropic exponent on the performance are thermodynamically analyzed. The model can be simplified to other cycle models under specific conditions, which means the results have an certain universality and may be helpful in the design of practical heat engines. It is shown that the entropy generation minimization does not always lead to the best system performance.

The improved model of inter-particle breakage considering the transformation of particle shape for cone crusher

To describe the essence of the inter-particle breakage behavior of the granular materials in the cone crusher accurately, an improved model is established based on the inter-particle breakage theory and population balance theory. In this model, a relative particle size ratio is introduced for describing the breakage characteristics of particles with different size, and the transformation of particle shape is considered in the inter-particle breakage.According to the standards of BS 812 part 105, the cubic and flaky particles are selected as breakage materials of inter-particle breakage experiment. Based on the experimental data, the influence of compression ratio, particle size distribution ratio and relative particle size ratio on the inter-particle breakage is investigated, the particle shape transformation function of polynomial form is built, and then the improved inter-particle breakage model considering the transformation of particle shape is established. Thus, the dynamic process of inter-particles breakage with two kinds of particle shapes in the cone crusher is simulated, and the flakiness index of cone crusher product can be calculated theoretically.A full-scale test with ZS200MF cone crusher was conducted in Tangshan, China. The particle size distribution and particle shape component of the crushing product were investigated by simulation with the improved model. Through the comparison of the measurement and the simulation, the maximum error of cumulated weight distribution is 4.8%, and the maximum error of flakiness index is 4.6%, then the effectiveness and practicability of this model are proved.

Effect of compression ratio and hydrogen addition on part throttle performance of a LPG fuelled lean burn spark ignition engine

A single cylinder CI engine was modified to operate as a LPG fuelled lean burn SI engine. The engine was tested at 1500rpm and 20% throttle opening at compression ratios 9:1, 10:1, 10.5:1 and 11:1 by varying equivalence ratios. The influence of compression ratio and 15% hydrogen substitution on energy basis at the optimal compression ratio of 10.5:1 on performance, emission and combustion behavior were studied and compared. The brake thermal efficiency and brake power output increases with rise in compression ratio, and above a critical value of 10.5:1 the improvement was small when compared to the increase in emissions. The advantage of brake thermal efficiency from higher compression ratio is narrow under low load conditions. The ever increasing load due to the auxiliaries which are likely to grow more require better low load performance and emissions. Wide flammable limits of hydrogen enable ultra-lean combustion and its anti-knock enhancement makes it advantageous compared to increasing the compression ratio at part throttle condition. Hydrogen addition enhanced the combustion rate and heat release rate, reduced cyclic variations, and extended the lean limit of operation. There was perceptible improvement in brake thermal efficiency, brake power and considerable reductions in hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide levels. Due to retarded ignition timing the NOx emission increase was not significant.

Performance of small spark ignition engine fueled with biogas at different compression ratio and various carbon dioxide dilution

In order to cope with power shortage in rural areas of developing countries and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we study the performance of small biogas-fueled internal combustion engines of which power is less than 5kW. In particular, the influence of compression ratio on the engine is primarily examined. By decreasing the combustion chamber volume (from 19.3cc to 16.6cc), compression ratio (from 8.01:1 to 9.22:1) is increased to enhance brake power output (from 2.2kW to 2.68kW), brake thermal efficiency (from 22.0% to 29.8%) and brake specific fuel consumption of the engine (from 290.6gh×PS to 218.6 gh×PS). In addition, as means to examine the effect of the biogas composition on engine performances, various carbon dioxide dilution ratios (from 0% to 50%) are tested. At lowest carbon dioxide dilution, maximum engine performance is obtained.
