Simulation of Compression Ignition Engine Fuelled with Oxygenate Fuels by Using Corrected Wiebe s Functions

Abstract

Internal combustion engine manufacturers are under increasing pressure to newlineproduce cleaner and efficient CI (Compression Ignition) diesel engines to meet the newlinestringent emission standards. Hence, engine modifications and exhaust after treatment newlinedevices are considered by them to reduce emissions. Nevertheless, oxygenate additive newlineblending with diesel or oxygenate fuel replacing the diesel are considered by the newlineresearchers worldwide to reduce emissions. Obviously, the oxygenate additives or newlineoxygenate fuels not only reduce the emissions but inflict alteration in the brake specific newlinefuel/energy consumption and brake thermal efficiency of the engine. Therefore, a newlinecomprehensive model is necessary to predict the performance by computer simulation newlineso as to identify the performance improving oxygenate additives or oxygenate fuels for newlinethe CI engine in a short time with less cost and number of experiments newline
