Trade-off study and the influence of different fuel injection strategies to enhance the engine characteristics powered with ternary fuel in CRDI diesel engine

The effects of a diesel engine combustion chamber geometries (PB1, PB2, PB3) and fuel injection pressure (FIP) (500, 750, and 1000 bar) with ternary fuel are discussed in this paper. It is observed that at maximum load as the FIP increased, the PB3 surpasses the PB1 and PB2 in brake thermal efficiency (4.86%) and hydrocarbon (7.2% decrease). However, a minor reduction in NOx (3%) is seen with increased FIP in the PB2. The NHRR (net heat release rate), peak pressure (in-cylinder), and ROPR (rate of pressure increases) all considerably increase with an enhancement in FIP in the case of PB3 by 2.96%, 3.86%, and 1.98%, respectively. It is discovered that altering the fuel injection pressure and piston shape concurrently offers a viable substitute for raising engine output and reducing emissions.
