Tóm tắt

Mitigating particulate matter (PM) emissions while simultaneously controlling nitrogen oxide and hydrocarbon emissions is critical for both gasoline and diesel engines. The problem is especially critical during cold-start cycles where aftertreatment devices are less effective. Understanding how liquid sprays and films form PM and designing to change the outcome requires advanced combustion concepts developed through joint experimental and computational efforts. However, existing spray and soot computational models are oversimplified and non-physical, and are therefore unable to reliably capture quantitative or even qualitative trends over a wide range of engine operating conditions. This task involves the development and application of advanced optical diagnostics and high-pressure gas and particle sampling/analysis in unique high-temperature, high-pressure vessels to investigate spray dynamics and soot formation with the objective of providing fundamental understanding about soot processes under relevant engine conditions to aid the development of improved soot models for commercial CFD codes
