Chapter 1Introduction

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 1 –7

[The Internal Combustion (IC) engines play a dominant role in the fields of transportation of goods and passengers, agricultural and industry. They develop power by consuming precious fossil fuels and cause pollution. Among different types of engines, the direct-injection (DI) diesel engine...

Chapter 2Phenomenology of Diesel Combustion and Modelling

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 9 –21

[Diesel is the most efficient combustion engine today and it plays an important role in transport of goods and passengers on road and on high seas. It is expected that the diesel engine will be active for another 100 years as increasingly economical sources are found with the increase in oil...

Chapter 3Experiments

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 23 –37

[Experimental work is necessary to develop the basic understanding of the processes in the engine. This chapter describes the experimental set up of the bomb for experimental interferometry, engine studies and details of the engines used in the book for validation of the phenomenological models....

Chapter 4Turbulent Structure of the Diesel Spray

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 39 –58

[Holographic interferometry has been applied to the study of concentration and temperature distribution in transient vaporising non-burning and burning fuel sprays in a quiescent bomb. Semi-theoretical relations have been obtained in this chapter to describe the axial and radial variations of...

Chapter 5Ignition Delay in a Diesel Engine

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 59 –78

[The ignition delay in a diesel engine is defined as the time interval between the start of injection and the start of combustion. This delay period consists of (a) physical delay, wherein atomisation, vaporization and mixing of air fuel occur and (b) of chemical delay attributed to...

Chapter 6Heat Transfer

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 79 –82

[The empirical correlations estimate the surface-averaged heat transfer coefficient in terms of the bulk gas temperature and a surface-averaged or total heat flux. The investigations have revealed that during the combustion period, the wall heat flux is locally substantial in space and time, due...

Chapter 7Heat Release in Indirect Injection Engines

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 83 –97

[The rate of heat release in an in direct injection engine is modelled on the lines of the observed rate in a direct injection engine. The premixed burning is assumed to take place only in the prechamber. The diffusion burning was modelled to be proportional to the modelled rate of air...

Chapter 8Mixing Correlations for Smoke and Fuel Consumption of Direct Injection Engines

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 99 –112

[The mixing of fuel with air in a diesel engine strongly dictates the specific fuel consumption and exhaust smoke. Many experimental studies reported the optimum swirl for a given diesel engine at a given operating condition. However, the attempts to correlate the relative penetration, or cross...

Chapter 9Heat Release in Direct Injection Engines

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 113 –136

[An accurate model for the heat release rate in a modern DI diesel engine is newly evolved from the known mixing controlled combustion model. In this chapter, the combustion rate is precisely described by relating the mixing rate to the turbulent energy created at the exit of the nozzle as a...
LitStream

Chapter 10Hydrocarbons from DI Diesel Engines

Lakshminarayanan, P. A.; Aghav, Yogesh V.

Pages: 137 –146

[Hydrocarbon (HC) emissions from direct injection (DI) diesel engines are mainly due to fuel injected and mixed beyond lean combustion limit during ignition delay and fuel effusing from the nozzle sac at low pressure. The concept has been developed to provide an elegant model to predict the HC...
