Abstract

A TP (Temperature Phase) model is presented to carry out optimization calculation for a highpressure common rail diesel engine. Temperature is the most important parameter in the TP model. When zone temperature T<1500 K, only the soot precursors -PAHs (Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) is created and there is no soot emission. When zone temperature T≥1500 K, PAHs and soot source terms (particle inception, surface growth, oxidation, coagulation) are calculated. The TP model is then implemented in KIVA code instead of original model to carry out optimizing. The results of cylinder pressures, the corresponding heat release rates, and soot with variation of injection time, variation of rail pressure and variation of speed among TP model, KIVA standard model and experimental data are analyzed. The results indicate that the TP model can carry out optimization and CFD (computational fluid dynamics) and can be a tool to calculate for a high-pressure common rail diesel engine.
