摘要：
Influence of different compression ratio(CR) on thermal efficiency based on ultra-lean gasoline combustion was studied on a single-cylinder research engine. The effects of the structural parameters of pre-chamber on combustion and emissions were also explored. The engine run at the conditions of the optimal fuel consumption, which was the speed of 2 750 r/min and the indicated mean effective pressure(IMEP) of 1.05 MPa. The excess air coefficient (φa) in the test was controlled by adjusting the air intake quantity and the cyclic fuel injection quantity. The research results show that, when the CR increases from 12.48 to 16.40, the indicated thermal efficiency(ITE) corresponding to the same φa takes an increasing trend, and meanwhile the φa of the optimal ITE also increases. When the CR is 12.48, the φa of the peak ITE is 1.8, and the ITE is 47.1%. When the CR is increased to 16.40, the φa corresponding to the peak ITE rises to 2.8, and the corresponding ITE rises to 50.1%. In addition, the comparative study on the effect of the pre-chamber structural parameters on combustion shows that, the structural design of the straight hole with 120° jet cone angle and 6.8 mm2 nozzle area can improve the combustion rate more effectively, which is conducive to the suppression of knock combustion. It is indicated that a better combustion stability and lower unburned hydrocarbon(UHC), CO, NOx and emissions can be achieved when using the ultra-lean combustion technology. © 2024 Chinese Society for Internal Combustion Engines.
