Effect of Fuel Injection Strategies on Performance, Combustion, and Emission Characteristics of Diesel–Diethyl Ether–Fueled Compression Ignition Engine
Experimental analysis shows improved combustion and emissions in diesel-DEE engines with varying dwell times, suggesting optimal injection strategies.
Key Points
Increased peak in-cylinder pressure enhances performance under modified injection strategies, indicating more effective combustion techniques.
Triple injections with extended dwell times yielded significant changes in emissions, with notable variations in nitric oxide and hydrocarbon levels.
Assessment of diesel-DEE blend performance reveals its efficiency is slightly lower than traditional diesel, highlighting the complexity of fuel blends.
The study's findings support the need for optimized fuel injection approaches to balance performance and emissions in diesel engines.
