| Abstract | A heavy-duty engine was modified to operate on natural gas using a partially-premixed charge strategy. The 15 L engine used a production natural gas fuelling system which was capable of providing direct injections of natural gas and diesel at high pressure during the intake stroke and around TDC of the compression stroke. The engine’s compression ratio was reduced to 15.3:1 to maximize load without exceeding the peak cylinder pressure or encountering knock. A multi-mode strategy for the natural gas injection was used: at part-load the injection occurred during the intake stroke, generating a premixed charge, while at high load a second injection was added around TDC to generate a non-premixed combustion phase. Using this strategy, loads up to 19 bar BMEP were achieved with brake efficiencies of nearly 40% and NOx emissions below 0.29 g/kWh. The key parameters needed to achieve the target load without knock were EGR level, premixed EQR, and intake manifold temperature. At high load, smoke emissions were significant, while at part load, high efficiency and low NOx were achieved but unburned fuel emissions increased. CFD simulation results indicated that the part-load barriers were a result of slow flame propagation through the lean premixed mixture. The modelling suggested that methods to overcome this could include partial-premixing and increased turbulence during the later stages of the combustion. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
