TANGENTIAL GROOVES IN PISTON CROWN FOR SWIRLING ACTION
- 1. COMBUSTION IMPROVEMENT ON A DIRECT INJECTION DIESEL ENGINE BY IMPLEMENTING TANGENTIAL SWIRLING GROOVES By: RITESH KUMAR (121116145) KARTIKPALIWAL (121116139) Faculty advisor:- Dr. RAJESH GUPTA
- 2. INTRODUCTION The development of a fuel efficient and less polluting engine is an important aspect of today's requirement in the area of engine research to reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency. TURBULENCE FASTER FLAME TRAVEL BETTER COMBUSTION BETTER FUEL EFFICIENCY This can be achieved in two ways: • By designing the combustion chamber • Providing the intake system so as to impart a swirl motion to the incoming air. TURBULENCE ROTATION TUMBLE SQUISH SWIRL Piston modification can de done to produce • Swirl MOTION( INDUCTION /COMPRESSION SWIRL) • SQUISH MOTION • TUMBLE Action Some of the concerning problems with DI Diesel engines are: • More Brake Specific fuel Consumption & Lesser brake thermal efficiency: • More Exhaust gases temperature: • Longer ignition delay period: • Pressure rise are less • High emission rate of the oxides of Nitrogen(𝑁𝑂𝑥):
- 3. HOW ?
- 4. SWIRL SQUISH TUMBLE 1 DEFINITION It is the rotational motion of the fluid mass within the cylinder It is the radial flow occurring at the end of the Compression stroke Squish motion generates a Secondary flow. Rotation occurs about a circumferential axis 2 ADVANTAGE • Homogeneous mixture • rapid spreading of flame front Homogeneous mixture Homogeneous mixture 3 METHOD OF GENRATION A) INDUCTION SWIRL B )COMPRESSION SWIRL Generated by the upward movement of the piston toward TDC in compression stroke By the circumferential grove provided in the center of piston crown 4 TECHNOLOGY USED ASFS “ADVANCED SWIRL FLOW SYSTEM” ATFT “ADVANCED TUMBLE FLOW TECHNOLOGY” Fluid Motion in Combustion Chamber
- 5. WHY ONLY SWIRL ?
- 6. 1 FLOW IN CYLINDER 2 Mercury Marine for information obtained from Service Training Publications Al piston technology is currently used in applications with up to 420 °C. And piston used nowadays are generally flat crown based pistons in the trucks which lead to improper and insufficient combustion 3 http://indian2wheels.blogspot.in/2010/10/what-do-hero-hondas-apdv-asfs-and-atft.html Nowadays "Advanced Swirl Flow Induction System" which according to my understanding means that the "air+fuel" mixture creates "Swirl" into the combustion chamber in the engine, which should aid better burning of fuel LITERATURE SURVEY AND REVIEW
- 7. PROJECT WORK • From the experimental investigations and CFD analysis as done by Ballapu Harshavardhan, J.M. Mallikarjuna on two-valve DI engine at an engine speed of 1000 rev/min., using PIV (particle image velocimetry) and CFD with different piston shapes • We use the case study as THE BASE OF SELECTION OF THE PISTON CROWN DESIGN FOR MAKING TANGENTIAL GROOVES The observations and comparison parameters for different types of piston shape were categorized on the basis of: • Tumble ratio(TR) • TKE • Evaporation • Velocity Compared Four different design Flat crown piston Inclined piston Flat centre bowl piston Inclined Flat bowl piston
- 8. A) Comparison of TR and TKE at various crank angles from CFD and PIV analysis with different piston shapes at an engine speed of 1000 rev/min A.Flat Head Piston B. Flat-with-central-bowl piston C. Inclined piston D. Inclined piston-bowl piston From the above we get the analysis bar chart The bowl in the piston helps air jet to travel more distance while accelerating, giving rise to higher kinetic energy, higher TR would be dissipated into higher TKE. The TR and TKE in FBP are more by about 58.3 and 21.6% respectively than those of IP.
- 9. B) Comparison of in-cylinder velocity vector plots with FP, FBP, IP AND IBP • It may be because of the bowl in the piston which would create a strong vortex motion throughout the compression stroke . • This strong vortex motion enhances the mixing and makes the mixture almost uniform. • the central bowl in piston tries to confine the vortex in it. • Secondly greater cylinder space leads to higher angular velocity of the vortex. • However, increased dissipation of vortex in case of FBP as compared To FP engine leads to higher turbulence • Therefore, it is concluded that, in case of IBP, the mixture distribution and range of TR are much better as compared to those of IP.
- 10. C) VARIATION OF PERCENTAGE OF FUEL EVAPORATION AT THE TIME OF IGNITION WITH VARIOUS PISTON SHAPES The percentage of fuel evaporation is higher in case of pistons with bowl as compared to those of pistons without bowl. • Pistons with bowl result in higher TR and TKE. Because of higher TR and TKE, liquid fuel droplets might be held in air rather than allowing them to go to walls, causing higher evaporation. • Shows fuel evaporation rate from the beginning of fuel injection with various piston shapes. It is observed that, fuel evaporation rate is more with FBP and IBP engines as compared to those of with FP and IP engines.
- 11. CONCLUSION Hence from above case study it is clear that flat bowl piston is best in all cases Hence we select flat crown piston with centre bowl as our piston design FLAT HEAD CENTRE BOWL PISTON VELOCITY VECTOR The flat-with-center-bowl piston engine gives higher in cylinder air velocities at the end of suction stroke as compared to those of other engines with different piston shapes considered. It gives about 12.3% higher in-cylinder air velocity as compared to that of flat piston engine TR & TKR The TR and TKE with flat-with-center-bowl piston engine are higher at the time of injection and ignition as compared to other engines with different piston shapes considered. They are about 51.9 and 8.9% higher at 540 CAD and 51.2 and 20.9% respectively as compared to those of flat piston engine. EVAPORATION RATE Air-fuel mixing is better (i.e., ER is about one at the spark plug location) in case of pistons with bowl as compared to pistons without bowl CFD Comparison Of flow pattern in FP and IBP
- 12. WHAT WE HAVE DESINGED? & WHY ONLY THIS DESIGN?
- 13. OUR DESIGN OF FLAT WITH CENTER BOWL PISTON WITH TANGENTIAL SWIRLING GROOVES STEPS FOR DESIGNING THE FLAT CROWNED TANGENTIAL GROOVED PISTONS: 1 Initially piston with prescribed dimensions was designed i.e. 34cc. or 87.5mm bore. 2 Later on tangential swirling grooves were designed over top face i.e. 5.5mm, 6.5mm and 7.5mm. 3 Depth of groove is taken 2mm in each case. 4 Now the increase in cubic capacity had been observed which is paid by Reducing the hemispherical bowl radius of the piston. Thus the compression ratio was matched between the modified and conventional engine.
- 14. Experimental steps 1. Designing of the tangential groove piston 2. Importing the designed file to AVL fire and doing the in cylinder flow simulation 3. Taking the optimum result 4. Performance, emission and combustion characteristics of engine on AVL FIRE SUITE CFD analysis with diesel fuel and piston with swirling groove of 2mm depth and 5.5 mm width 5. Performance, emission and combustion characteristics of engine with the same approach and piston with swirling groove of 2mm depth and 6.5 mm width. 6. Performance, emission and combustion characteristics of engine with the same approach and piston with swirling groove of 2mm depth and 7.5 mm width.
- 15. Conclusions Shapes of the head of piston has a major effect on different parameters of a DI Diesel engine. Different shapes includes FP, FBP, BP and IBP has its effect on Tumble ratio and TKE. All the changes in head design are mostly for attaining turbulence of flow mixture which causes better air-fuel mixing. A modified proposed design of tangential swirling groove on piston head having varied depth and 2mm thickness are analyzed on AVL and it has more swirling action as compared to all other piston head design. This modified head design has major effects on increasing the BSFC, Brake thermal efficiency, pressure inside chamber and outlet air temperature. Also proper combustion will reduce the emission of toxic gases. Thus this newly modified design of tangential swirling groove on piston head of a DI diesel engine has major effect on the properties of DI engine. Future Scope: Utilizing the fossil fuels in efficient manner. Increase in the mileage of DI Engines Use of highly advanced and more efficient automobiles. Reduction of environmental pollution caused by highly toxic gases coming out of Engines. Economy prospect.
