Abstract
Based on the introduction of the basic combustion concept of a gasoline direct injection (GDI) engine and its operation under different operating conditions, HC (hydrocarbon) emission mechanisms of the GDI engine are analyzed. And HC emission characteristics of the GDI engine are compared with the PFI engine via a comparison test based on the FTP-75 driving cycle. It can be concluded that the GDI engine is facing a big challenge for meeting the future's HC emission standard. Reasons for the higher HC emission of the GDI engine are discussed and the ways for HC emission control are given.
