Abstract
Cycle fuel energy distribution and combustion characteristics of early in-cylinder diesel homogenous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion organized by modulated multi-pulse injection modes are studied by the engine test. It is found that heat loss due to unburned fuel droplets and CO emission can be decreased effectively by injection mode regulation, and thermal efficiency can be potentially increased by 4%–12%. From the analyses of combustion process, it is also found that diesel HCCI combustion is a process with a finite reaction rate and is very sensitive to injection timing and injection mode. At injection timing of −90°CA ATDC, extra low NOx emissions can be obtained along with high thermal efficiency.
