Abstract

The combustion process in diesel engines is controlled by the injection rate shape. The stricter emission regulations requiring simultaneous reduction of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter imposes intense research and development activity for achieving clean and robust combustion. This work describes the experimental investigation made for calibration of an engine model and the numerical investigation performed to assess the influences of different injection rate shapes on performances of a diesel engine fuelled with diesel and rapeseed biodiesel B20. The engine model was developed with the AVL-BOOST code using the AVL-MCC combustion mode. The model was calibrated for the reference Top-Hat injection rate shape using experimental data registered for maximum brake torque and maximum brake power speed conditions. Other injection rate shapes such as triangular, trapezoidal, and boot having the same area, start, and duration of injection were investigated in terms of combustion characteristics, performance, and pollutant emissions. The link existing between the injection characteristics and the NOx and Soot emissions highlights that, for the optimal rate of injection shape, a simultaneous reduction of NOx and Soot by 11%, respectively 4% for maximum brake torque and by 22%, respectively 7% for maximum brake power, can be obtained using biodiesel B20.
