Book excerpt: The objective of this work was to determine the influence of in-cylinder flows on the natural gas combustion process in configurations representative of light duty vehicle spark ignition engines. Specifically, the influence of the flow field on the flame kernel development period was of interest. The interactions between the flow field and the combustion process were quantified by correlating characteristic in-cylinder fluid flow and mass burn rate parameters. The fluid motion, flame kernel development and the overall combustion duration were characterised using: (i) a two-component laser Doppler velocimeter for the in-cylinder fluid flow, (ii) a fibre-optic instrumented spark plug for the flame kernel growth rate, and (iii) a piezo-electric pressure transducer for the in-cylinder pressure from which the overall mass burn rate data is obtained. The measurements were made on an individual cycle basis. Results from a single cylinder V6 optical engine are reported. Physical interpretations of: (i) the flow field evolution and (ii) the interactions between the flow field and the natural gas combustion process are presented. The main contributions of this work are through: (i) the application of novel data processing techniques, and (ii) the exploration of the fibre-optic instrumented spark plug as a measurement technique in high swirl engines. For example, the discrete wavelet transform is used to show: (i) the energy cascade process in the non-stationary engine flow field over crank angle phase and frequency; and (ii) how the flow field evolution influences the early stages of the natural gas combustion process. The fibre-optic instrumented spark plug is shown to measure a mass-weighted velocity. Data from the fibre-optic instrumented spark plug data are shown to be biased by the large convection velocities in high swirl engines. This work provides the foundation upon which further investigations into the influence of different in-cylinder flows on the natural gas combustion process in spark ignition engines can be based.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract : A significant challenge facing spark-ignited (SI) engines to achieve higher efficiency via highly diluted combustion is the quickly increased combustion instability as the dilution level increases. The flow motion variation has been identified as a dominant factor that introduces combustion variability at highly diluted conditions. However, the detailed mechanism of how the variation in flow motion impacts the flame kernel development and introduces combustion instability is only partially understood. This research investigated the impacts of the in-cylinder flow on variability of the ignition and early flame kernel development in a single cylinder direct-injection spark-ignition (DI-SI) optically accessible engine and accessory test benches. Firstly, different types of spark plug electrode designs were studied on a spark plug flow fixture bench. The results showed that the impacts of incoming flow on the ignition output vary as the incoming flow direction is changed. The ignition energy drops and discharge duration prolongs as the incoming flow is blocked by any part of the electrodes. Secondly, the flow motion near the spark plug region was investigated in an optical engine through high-speed imaging of the spark discharge arc stretching and flow field measurement via particle imaging velocimetry. It was observed that at motored conditions there is a consistent trend that the flow can change direction from the bulk motion as the piston approaches the top dead center (TDC). The transition of flow direction near the spark plug is a source of variability in initial flame kernel convection and propagation. It was found that by increasing the tumble motion, the transition window can be retarded later in the cycle. Lastly, the impacts of the unstable incylinder flow motion on the flame kernel initiation and development was studied at both diluted and stoichiometric conditions. The 2D and 1D probability distribution functions of the flame kernel indicated that the reversed flow direction near the spark plug at ignition timing results in smaller and less stretched flame kernels, which are a source of combustion variability. As the tumble level is increased, the window where the transition of flow direction occurs near the spark plug also changes. This research indicates that, at the studied loads and speeds, higher tumble level helps maintain a consistent flow motion near the spark plug at the ignition timing, which results in faster growing flame kernels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyclic combustion variations in spark-ignition engines limit the use of dilute charge strategies for achieving low NO(subscript x) emissions and improved fuel economy. Results from an experimental study of the effect of incomplete fuel-air mixing (ifam) on spark-ignited flame kernel growth in turbulent propane-air mixtures are presented. The experiments were conducted in a turbulent flow system that allows for independent variation of flow parameters, ignition system parameters, and the degree of fuel-air mixing. Measurements were made at 1 atm and 300 K conditions. Five cases were studied; a premixed and four incompletely mixed cases with 6%, 13%, 24% and 33% RMS (root-mean-square) fluctuations in the fuel/air equivalence ratio. High speed laser shadowgraphy at 4,000 frames-per-second was used to record flame kernel growth following spark ignition, from which the equivalent flame kernel radius as a function of time was determined. The effect of ifam was evaluated in terms of the flame kernel growth rate, cyclic variations in the flame kernel growth, and the rate of misfire. The results show that fluctuations in local mixture strength due to ifam cause the flame kernel surface to become wrinkled and distorted; and that the amount of wrinkling increases as the degree of ifam. Ifam was also found to result in a significant increase in cyclic variations in the flame kernel growth. The average flame kernel growth rates for the premixed and the incompletely mixed cases were found to be within the experimental uncertainty except for the 33%-RMS-fluctuation case where the growth rate is significantly lower. The premixed and 6%-RMS-fluctuation cases had a 0% misfire rate. The misfire rates were 1% and 2% for the 13%-RMS-fluctuation and 24%-RMS-fluctuation cases, respectively; however, it drastically increased to 23% in the 33%-RMS-fluctuation case.
