    Impact of compression ratio and injection parameters on the performance and emissions of a DI diesel engine fueled with biodiesel-blended diesel fuel
    (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011) SAYIN, CENK; Sayin, Cenk; Gumus, Metin
    This work investigates the influence of compression ratio (CR) and injection parameters such injection timing (IT) and injection pressure (IP) on the performance and emissions of a DI diesel engine using biodiesel (%5, 20%, 50%, and 100%) blended-diesel fuel. Tests were carried out using three different CRs (17, 18, and 19/1), ITs (15 degrees, 20 degrees, and 25 degrees CA BTDC) and IPs (18, 20 and 22 MPa) at 20 N m engine load and 2200 rpm. The results showed that brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), brake specific energy consumption (BSEC), and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions increased while brake thermal efficiency (BTE), smoke opacity (OP), carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon (HC) decreased with the increase in the amount of biodiesel in the fuel mixture. The best results for BSFC, BSEC and BTE were observed at increased the CR, IP, and original IT. For the all tested fuels, an increase in IP, IT and CR leaded to decrease in the OP. CO and MC emissions while NO emissions increase. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Exhaust Emissions and Combustion Characteristics of a Direct Injection (DI) Diesel Engine Fueled with Methanol-Diesel Fuel Blends at Different Injection Timings
    (AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2008) SAYIN, CENK; Canakci, Mustafa; Sayin, Cenk; Gumus, Metin
    In the recent years, environmental concerns and depletion in petroleum resources have forced researchers to concentrate on finding renewable alternatives to conventional petroleum fuels. Therefore, alcohols as renewable and alternative energy sources for the diesel engines gain importance. For this reason, in this study, the performance, exhaust emissions, and combustion characteristics of a single cylinder diesel engine have been experimentally investigated under different injection timings when methanol-blended diesel fuel was used from 0 to 15%, with an increment of 5%. The tests were conducted at three different injection timings (15 degrees, 20 degrees, and 25 degrees CA BTDC) by changing the thickness of advance shim. All tests were conducted at four different loads (5, 10, 15, and 20 Nm) at constant engine speed of 2200 rpm. The experimental test results showed that BSFC, BSEC, combustion efficiency, and NOx and CO2 emissions increased as BTE, rate of heat release, peak cylinder pressure, smoke number, and CO and UHC emissions decreased with an increasing amount of methanol in the fuel blend. In comparison to the values at the original injection timing (20 degrees CA BTDC), the values at the retarded injection timing (15 degrees CA BTDC) of peak cylinder pressure, rate of heat release, combustion efficiency, and NOx and CO2 emissions decreased, while smoke number and UHC and CO emissions increased at all test conditions. On the other hand, The advanced injection timing (25 degrees CA BTDC), smoke number, and UHC and CO emissions diminished and peak cylinder pressure, rate of heat release, combustion efficiency, and NOx and CO2 emissions increased at all test conditions. In terms of BSFC, BSEC, and BTE, retarded and advanced injection timings gave negative results in all fuel blends compared to original injection timing.

    Assessment of combustion and exhaust emissions in a common-rail diesel engine fueled with methane and hydrogen/methane mixtures under different compression ratio
    (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2020) YILMAZ, İLKER TURGUT; Sanli, Ali; Yilmaz, Ilker Turgut; Gumus, Metin
    This study investigates the potential usage of the methane and hydrogen enriched methane in a turbocharged common-rail direct injection diesel engine. Methane and hydrogen/methane mixtures are sent through the air intake manifold of the engine. The engine is operated at four different loads and three different compression ratios. Results are compared amongst single diesel and dual-fuel operations at different compression ratios and load conditions. Compared to diesel, dual-fuel operations mostly generate higher and advanced peak in-cylinder gas pressure, more combustion noise, late pilot injection and start of combustion, advanced combustion center, substantial variations at ignition delay and combustion duration, a significant increase in cyclic variations at low and medium loads, and earlier heat release. Hydrogen enrichment decreases evidently specific fuel consumption. Concerning emissions, compared to diesel operation, dual-fuel operations produce higher total hydrocarbon (THC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) but lower carbon dioxide (CO2). Hydrogen substitutions decrease THC and CO2 emissions of methane dual-fuel operations approximately between 9-29% and 1-32%, respectively. Smoke emission of dual-fuel operations is less than that of diesel at low and medium loads, whereas it sharply increases at high load. Knocking occurs at high compression ratio and load conditions with dual-fuel operations and dramatically increases with increasing hydrogen ratio. Decreasing the compression ratio notably reduces the combustion noise as well as some emissions, such as NOx, CO2 and smoke, for entire load ranges of dual-fuel and diesel operations.

    Effect of injection timing on the exhaust emissions of a diesel engine using diesel-methanol blends
    (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2009) SAYIN, CENK; Sayin, Cenk; Ilhan, Murat; Canakci, Mustafa; Gumus, Metin
    Environmental concerns and limited resource of petroleum fuels have caused interests in the development of alternative fuels for internal combustion (IC) engines. For diesel engines, alcohols are receiving increasing attention because they are oxygenated and renewable fuels. Therefore, in this study, the effect of injection timing on the exhaust emissions of a single cylinder, naturally aspirated, four-stroke, direct injection diesel engine has been experimentally investigated by using methanol-blended diesel fuel from 0% to 15% with an increment of 5%. The tests were conducted for three different injection timings (15 degrees, 20 degrees and 25 degrees CA BTDC) at four different engine loads (5 Nm, 10 Nm, 15 Nm, 20 Nm) at 2200 rpm. The experimental test results showed that Bsfc, NOx and CO2 emissions increased as BTE, smoke opacity, CO and UHC emissions decreased with increasing amount of methanol in the fuel mixture. When compared the results to those of original injection timing, NOx and CO2 emissions decreased, smoke opacity, UHC and CO emissions increased for the retarded injection timing (15 CA BTDC). On the other hand, with the advanced injection timing (25 degrees CA BTDC), decreasing smoke opacity, UHC and CO emissions diminished, and NOx and CO2 emissions boosted at all test conditions. In terms of Bsfc and BTE, retarded and advanced injection timings gave negative results for all fuel blends in all engine loads. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    The impact of fuel injection pressure on the exhaust emissions of a direct injection diesel engine fueled with biodiesel-diesel fuel blends
    (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012) SAYIN, CENK; Gumus, Metin; Sayin, Cenk; Canakci, Mustafa
    In this study, the effects of fuel injection pressure on the exhaust emissions and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) of a direct injection (DI) diesel engine have been discussed. The engine was fueled with biodiesel-diesel blends when running the engine at four different fuel injection pressures (18, 20, 22, and 24 MPa) and four different engine loads in terms of mean effective pressure (12.5, 25, 37.5, and 50 kPa). The results confirmed that the BSFC, carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and oxygen (O-2) emission increased, smoke opacity, unburned hydrocarbon (UHC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions decreased due to the fuel properties and combustion characteristics of biodiesel. On the other hand, the increased injection pressure caused to decrease in BSFC of high percentage biodiesel-diesel blends (such as B20, B50, and B100), smoke opacity, the emissions of CO, UHC and increased the emissions of CO2, O-2 and NOx. The increased or decreased injection pressure caused to increase in BSFC values compared to original (ORG) injection pressure for diesel fuel and low percentage biodiesel-diesel blends (B5).

    Efficiency of an Otto engine under alternative power optimizations
    (JOHN WILEY & SONS LTD, 2009) GÜMÜŞ, METİN; Gumus, Metin; Atmaca, Mustafa; Yimaz, Tamer
    The proper optimization criterion to be chosen for the optimum design of the heat engines may differ depending on their purposes and working conditions. In this study, a comparative performance analysis is carried out for a reversible Otto cycle based on three alternative performance criteria namely maximum power (mp), maximum power density (mpd) and maximum efficient power (mep). The power density criterion is defined as the power per minimum specific volume in the cycle and the efficient power criterion is defined as multiplication of the power by the efficiency of the Otto cycle. Maximizing the efficient power gives a compromise between power and efficiency. Three different objective functions are defined and maximization of these functions is carried out under different design parameters of the Otto engine. The variations of power, power density and efficient power outputs are derived and presented with respect to the thermal efficiency of the cycle for various temperature ratios. It has been found that the design parameters at mep conditions lead to more efficient engines than that at the mp condition and the mep criterion may have a significant power advantage compared with mpd criterion.

    Effect of fuel injection pressure on the injection, combustion and performance characteristics of a DI diesel engine fueled with canola oil methyl esters-diesel fuel blends
    (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2012) SAYIN, CENK; Sayin, Cenk; Gumus, Metin; Canakci, Mustafa
    In this study, the influence of injection pressure on the injection, combustion and performance characteristics of a single cylinder, four stroke, direct injection, naturally aspirated diesel engine has been experimentally investigated when using canola oil methyl esters (COME) and its blends with diesel fuel. The tests were conducted for four different injection pressures (18, 20, 22 and 24 MPa) at constant engine speed and different loads. The experimental results showed that the fuels exhibit different injection, combustion and performance characteristics for different engine loads and injection pressure. Investigation on the injection characteristics of the fuels showed that using COME instead of diesel resulted in earlier injection timings. The maximum cylinder pressure, the maximum rate of pressure rise and the maximum heat release rate are slightly lower for COME and its blends. The brake specific fuel consumption and brake specific energy consumption for COME are higher than that for diesel fuel while brake thermal efficiency of COME is generally lower than that of diesel fuel. The increased injection pressure gave better results for brake specific fuel consumption and brake thermal efficiency compared to the original and decreased injection pressures.

    Investigation of combustion and emission characteristics in a TBC diesel engine fuelled with CH4-CO2-H-2 mixtures
    (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2021) YILMAZ, İLKER TURGUT; Sanli, Ali; Yilmaz, Ilker Turgut; Gumus, Metin
    In this study, an experimental investigation was performed to reveal combustion and emission characteristics of common-rail four-cylinder diesel engine run with CH4, CO2 and H-2 mixtures. The engine pistons were thermally coated with zirconia and Ni-Al bond coat by plasma spray method. With a small amount of the pilot diesel, port fuelled methane (100% CH4), synthetic biogas (80% CH4 + 20% CO2), and hydrogen presented (80% CH4+10% CO2+10% H-2) mixtures were used as main fuel at different loads (50 Nm, 75 Nm, and 100 Nm) at a constant speed of 1750 min(-1). Comparative analysis of the combustion (cylinder pressure, PRR, HRR, CHR, ringing intensity, CA10, CA50, and CA90), BSFC, and emissions (CO2, HC, NOx, smoke, and oxygen) at the various engine loads with and without piston coating was made for all fuel combinations. It was found that coating the engine pistons enhanced the examining combustion characteristics, whereas it slightly changed BSFC and most of the emissions. As compared to the sole diesel fuel, the gaseous fuel operations showed higher in-cylinder pressure, PRR, and ringing intensity values, earlier combustion starting and CAs, and lower diesel injection pressure at the same engine operating conditions. Dramatic increase in the ringing intensity was particularly found by the hydrogen introduced mixture under the tests with coated piston. HC and CO2 emissions increased in operation with the synthetic biogas; however, hydrogen introduction reduced HC emissions by 4.97-30.92%, and CO2 emissions by 5.16-10%.

    Experimental Evaluation of Performance and Combustion Characteristics in a Hydrogen-Methane Port Fueled Diesel Engine at Different Compression Ratios
    (AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2020) YILMAZ, İLKER TURGUT; Sanli, Ali; Yilmaz, Ilker Turgut; Gumus, Metin
    This paper investigates the performance and combustion characteristics of a common-rail diesel engine fueled with methane and hydrogen enrichment of methane under different loads (2.15, 4.3, 6.45, and 8.6 bar) and compression ratios (CRs) (18.25, 16.9, and 15.8). Traditional diesel fuel is used as the pilot fuel and is injected twice as pre- and main injections. Results of the usage of gaseous fuels are compared with each other and the single diesel mode. Accordingly, brake thermal efficiency (BTE) and brake specific energy consumption (BSEC) are highly deteriorated at low loads, but they improve with load. Hydrogen substitution results in slightly higher BTE and lower BSEC. The average exhaust temperature with gaseous fuels is enhanced compared to that with diesel. Peak cylinder pressures of dual-fuel operations are higher, and an earlier heat release is observed; moreover, combustion noise of dual-fuel operations is further enhanced under a high CR-high load condition. Finally, combustion durations substantially change with loads and CRs.
