Simulation Study on Different Composition Fuels in Lean-Burn CNG Engine

Article Preview

Abstract:

The Paper has Established a Combustion Model of Lean-Burn CNG Engine by Three-Dimensional Simulation Software AVL FRIE. Based on Test Validation in the Model, the Combustion Processes of Seven CNG Samples were Simulated and Compared from the Intake Valve Closed to the Exhaust Valve Opening. the Effects on Different Composition Fuels for CNG Engine were Researched. the Results Showed that: the Maximum Average Pressure within the Cylinder , the Highest Average Temperature, the Maximum Heat Release Rate, the Initial Mass Fraction of Fuels, CO and NO Formation Increased with the Hydrocarbon Fuel Ratio C/H, the Composition of Heavy Paraffin in CNG Directly Affected the Performance and Service Life of the Engine.
