Diesel Combustion Analysis Using Rapid Sampling Techniques.
Abstract
The purpose of the research was to obtain a better understanding of the fundamental processes which take place in a diesel cylinder during combustion. A single cylinder, open chamber engine with a special head designed to allow in-cylinder sampling was used for the research. Using a conventional injector, two kinds of sampling projects were carried out; timed sampling of small local samples using a probe and total cylinder sampling, achieved by suddenly expanding and transferring 80% of the cylinder content to a quench chamber. A third study used an electronic fuel injection system to study the effects of injection parameters on performance, heat release, ignition delay and exhaust emissions.
