Abstract

The analysis of in-cylinder combustion temperatures using flame image processing technology is reliable. This method can accurately, intuitively, and in real time obtain the temperature field distribution law of the combustion flame in the cylinder, so we can more deeply understand the characteristics of the combustion process of internal combustion engines. In this paper, a high-speed charge-coupled device (CCD) camera is used to record an in-cylinder combustion image, which is calculated and corrected according to the principle of three primary color temperature measurement, and the temperature field distribution of the combustion flame in the diesel engine cylinder is analyzed in detail. In addition, the temperature of the typical combustion flame images under the open-cycle and closed cycle conditions is compared by the CMS2002 measurement and MATLAB program, respectively. The results show that the accuracy of the MATLAB program is acceptable in general but not entirely acceptable in a few ways.
