摘要

in Part 1, the effects of octane number of primary reference fuels and equivalence ration on combustion characteristics of a single-cylinder HCCI engine were studied. In this part, the influence of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rate, intake charge temperature, coolant temperature, and engine speed on the HCCI combustion characteristics and its emissions were evaluated. The experimental results indicate that the ignition timing of the first-stage combustion and second-stage combustion retard, and the combustion duration prolongs with the introduction of cooled EGR. At the same time, the HCCI combustion using high cetane number fuels can tolerate with a higher EGR rate, but only 45% EGR rate for RON75 at 1800 rpm. Furthermore, there is a moderate effect of EGR rate on CO and UHC emissions for HCCI combustion engines fueled with n-heptane and RON25, but a distinct effect on emissions for higher octane number fuels. Moreover, the combustion phase advances, and the combustion duration shorten with the increase of intake charge temperature and the coolant out temperature, and the decrease of the engine speed. At last, it can be found that the intake charge temperature gives the most sensitive influence on the HCCI combustion characteristics.
