摘要

This study investigated the spray and combustion characteristics of a direct injection spark ignition type system based on the changes in the temperature of the blended fuel (with bio-ethanol and gasoline). The test was performed in a chamber with a constant volume. The diameter and width of the chamber were 86 mm and 39 mm, respectively. The bio-ethanol test fuel was blended at volume ratios of 0 %, 10 %, 20 % and 100 %. The temperature of the fuel was set as -7, 25 and 35 A degrees C. The fuel injection pressure and ambient pressure were set as 4.5 and 0.5 MPa, respectively. The shape and characteristics of the spray were investigated through a spray experiment. The increase in the fuel temperature changed its density and viscosity; this in turn increased spray penetration and spray area and increased the bio-ethanol blending ratio. The combustion visualization and experimental analysis indicated that the decrease in the fuel temperature and the increase in the bio-ethanol blending ratio led to the high viscosity and low heating value. This resulted in an increase in the ignition delay and a decrease in the rate of heat release. It is necessary to adjust the spray strategy and ignition timing to adopt bio-ethanol blended fuel as an alternative fuel.
