Abstract

Increased particle number and mass emissions in gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines should require to investigate in-cylinder flame and combustion characteristics associated with primary source of particle emissions. In this work, in-cylinder spatiotemporal flame luminosity is quantitatively characterized to features combustion process and solid particle emissions from a GDI engine operating in two lean and one stoichiometric modes. Low- and high-steady state operating points were used to compare combustion strategies on flame development and emission characteristics. A fiber-optic sensor composed of eight measurement channels detected the flame front and the direction of the flame propagation in the combustion chamber. Solid particle emissions in the exhaust were measured using an engine exhaust particle sizer and a micro soot sensor. Results of the experiments showed that two lean combustion modes by injection strategies resulted in distinct combustion and flame development. Lean combustion modes generated high diffusion flame by burning stratified rich-mixture. Although the lean cases resulted in strong diffusion flames, the lean-homogeneous produced similar particle size distributions with the stoichiometric mode with high ash particles. Piston pool fires on the piston surface in the lean-stratified mode induced a large accumulation mode with high particle mass concentrations.
