A utilização de combustíveis alternativos em MCI, visa a substituição ou a redução do consumo de combustíveis fósseis. Qualquer estudo do desenvolvimento de métodos e técnicas que melhore o desempenho dos motores usando combustíveis alternativos é de grande importância tecnológica, econômica e social. Com este fim, foi feito este trabalho de pesquisa, o qual consiste em ensaiar um motor usando misturas de 37% e 50% de etanol na gasolina. O etanol utilizado neste trabalho apresentou um grau alcoólico de 92 INPM aproximadamente. Os ensaios foram feitos em taxas de compressão 8:1, 9.5:1 e 11:1. Foi avaliada a influência dos diferentes parâmetros para um máximo de eficiência e um mínimo de poluição, aproveitando as vantagens de ambos combustíveis, já que, a gasolina tem alto poder calorífico e baixo índice octano, e o etanol tem baixo poder calorífico e elevado índice de octana. O combustível ideal deveria ter ambos os fatores elevados. Para verificar os resultados esperados, foram feitos neste trabalho, estudos cinéticos químicos da combustão a partir do desempenho do motor e geração de gases. Para cumprir este fim foram necessários estudos que incluem o diagnóstico do processo de combustão, já que, o diagnóstico do processo de combustão fornece toda a informação necessária, às análises de aspectos críticos do funcionamento do motor e de emissões. Comprovou-se que a velocidade da reação de oxidação do etanol é maior que da gasolina e que, o motor aproveita mais a energia química do etanol que da gasolina. / The use of alternative fuels in Internal Combustion engine, seeks the substitution or the reduction of the consumption of fossil fuels. Any study of the development of methods and techniques that it improves the acting of the motors using alternative fuels are of great technological, economic and social importance. With this goal, it was made this research work, which consists of tests in an engine using blends of 37% and 50% of ethanol in the gasoline. The ethanol used in this work presented an alcoholic degree of 92 INPM approximately. The tests were made in compression ratio 8:1, 9.5:1 and 11:1. The influence of the different parameters was evaluated for a maximum of efficiency and a minimum of pollution, taking advantage of the advantages of both fuels, since, the gasoline has high PCI and low octane index, and the ethanol low PCI and high octane index. The ideal fuel should have high both factors. To verify the expected results, they were done in this work, studies kinetic chemists of the combustion starting from engine performance and generation of gases. To execute this goal they were necessary studies that include the diagnostics of the combustion process, since, the diagnostics of the combustion process supplies all the necessary information, to the analyses of engine critical aspects operation and emissions. Was proven that the speed of the ethanol reaction of oxidation is larger than gasoline and that the engine takes advantage of more the ethanol chemical energy that of the gasoline.

Identificação dos fenômenos de combustão e detonação em um motor ciclo Otto através da corrente iônica. / Identification of combustion and detonation phenomena in an Otto cycle engine through the ionic current.Leonardo Lopes Lima 18 December 2015 (has links)
As legislações com restrições nos níveis de emissões de poluentes e a grande concorrência entre as montadoras fomentaram o desenvolvimento de sistemas mais eficientes de gerenciamento de motores a combustão interna. Entretanto, a falta de sensores que identifiquem as propriedades da combustão, e que sejam economicamente viáveis, dificulta o desenvolvimento de novos sistemas. Visando suprir parte dessas limitações, este trabalho propõe o uso do sensor de corrente iônica com duas finalidades: identificação dos fenômenos de combustão e detonação. Para identificação da combustão, atualmente é utilizado o sensor de fase instalado no motor, o que encarece o sistema de gerenciamento. Uma alternativa a este sensor seria utilizar a vela de ignição, já instalada dentro do cilindro do motor, como sensor de ionização da mistura ar/combustível durante a queima. Comparando a área sob a curva do sinal da corrente iônica durante a combustão com a área sob a curva durante a admissão, foi possível verificar que é viável a utilização do sinal da corrente iônica para substituição de uma funcionalidade do sensor de fase. Quanto à identificação do fenômeno da detonação, foi mostrado que o uso do sensor de corrente iônica possibilita a remoção do sensor de detonação. Para isso, foi realizada a correlação entre a energia de uma faixa de frequências dos harmônicos do sinal da corrente iônica com a energia do sinal proveniente do sensor de detonação. Dessa forma, este trabalho mostrou que é possível usar somente as velas de ignição, já presentes no veículo, como sensores. Além disso, os resultados positivos obtidos propiciam oportunidades para novas aplicações e novas pesquisas. / The laws that restrict pollutant emission levels and the competition among manufacturers fostered the development of more efficient internal combustion engine management systems. However, the lack of sensors to identify the properties of combustion, and which are economically viable, hinders the development of new systems. In order to address such limitations, this investigation proposes using the ionic current sensor with two purposes: identification of combustion and knock phenomena. The combustion identification is currently identified by the camshaft position sensor installed in the motor, which becomes more expensive for the management system. An alternative is using the spark plug, already installed inside the engine cylinder, such as ionization sensor of air/fuel mixture during combustion. Comparing the area under the curve of the ion current signal during combustion to the area under the curve during admission, it was found that it is feasible the use of ionic current signal to replace one feature of the camshaft position sensor. Concerning the identification of the knock phenomenon, it was shown that the use of the ionic current sensor allows the removal of the knock sensor. For this, the correlation between the energy signal in a frequency range of the ionic current harmonic with the energy of the signal from the knock sensor was performed Therefore, the use of spark plugs as sensors is very promising, in replacement to two existing sensors. Moreover, the positive results provide opportunities for new applications and researches.

Caracterização da geometria e do funcionamento do conceito do motor rotativo de palhetasTessaro, Ioannes Paulus Bohn January 2012 (has links)
O conceito de um motor rotativo de palhetas é apresentado e o modelo que opera similar aos motores recíprocos dois tempos é analisado. Este motor é formado por estator cilíndrico, rotor descentralizado, palhetas radiais e tampas laterais, similar aos compressores de palhetas radiais. Parâmetros geométricos estão definidos para que o motor possua características similares a dois motores recíprocos comerciais igualmente modelados. Suas geometrias estão detalhadas, assim como a modelagem termodinâmica e suas hipóteses, as quais devido ao caráter comparativo do trabalho não têm grande influência no alcance dos objetivos. Em relação aos motores recíprocos, o novo conceito prospecta algumas vantagens: maior compacidade; menor nível de vibrações; maior facilidade de alteração da razão de compressão; possibilidade de produção e montagem em módulos; e devido a todas estas, as maiores possibilidades para o projeto, fabricação, montagem e operação dos motores. Para melhor entendimento de algumas tendências relativas a estas vantagens, a sensibilidade dos parâmetros geométricos é estudada, com variações nos diâmetros do estator e do rotor, na espessura do rotor e das palhetas, na excentricidade entre rotor e estator, e no número de palhetas do conceito. Este estudo demonstra características únicas do motor rotativo de palhetas, dentre elas, a variação da espessura do rotor se destaca por proporcionar a alteração do tamanho do motor sem modificar os demais aspectos. A excentricidade entre o rotor e estator demonstra grande potencial na capacidade de alterar a razão de compressão do equipamento, inclusive podendo ser modificada após a construção do motor ou até mesmo durante sua operação. Também se destaca o número de palhetas, o qual tem influência direta sobre a curva de torque do ciclo e a efetividade do posicionamento das janelas de admissão e exaustão. Com isto, é concluída a caracterização da geometria e do funcionamento do motor rotativo de palhetas, obtendo uma boa base para as próximas etapas de seu desenvolvimento. / The concept of a rotary vane engine is presented and the model that operates similar to twostroke reciprocating engines is analyzed. This engine is formed by a cylindrical stator, decentralized rotor, radial vanes and side housing plates, similar to the radial vane compressors. Geometrical parameters are defined so that the motor has similar characteristics to two commercial reciprocating engines also modeled. Their geometries are detailed, as well as the thermodynamic model and its assumptions, which due to the comparative nature of the work do not have significant influence in achieving the objectives. With respect to reciprocating engines, the new concept is prospecting some advantages: higher compactness; lowest level of vibration; ease of adjustment of compression ratio; possibility of manufacture and assembly in modules; and due to all these, the numerous possibilities to the design, manufacture, assembly and operation of the engines. For a better understanding of some these advantages trends, the sensitivity of geometric parameters are studied, with variations in the diameters of the stator and rotor, in the thickness of the rotor and the vanes, in the eccentricity between rotor and stator, and in the number of vanes of the concept. This study demonstrates unique rotary vane engine characteristics, among them, the range of rotor thickness stands out for providing a change in engine size without changing other aspects. The eccentricity between the rotor and stator shows great potential for the ability to change the compression ratio of the equipment and can be modified even after the construction or even during operation of the engine. It also highlights the number of vanes, which has a direct influence on the torque curve of the cycle and the effectiveness of the positioning of inlet and exhaust ports. Therewith, the characterization of rotary vane engine geometry and operational design is complete, obtaining a good basis for its next development stages.

Aspectos a serem considerados no desenvolvimento de um coletor de admissão plástico soldado por vibração / Aspects to be considered through the development of a plastic intake manifold vibration weldedSimões, Thiago André Faria 21 October 2010 (has links)
O projeto do coletor de admissão é essencial para alcançar o melhor desempenho de um motor de combustão interna, e, portanto diversos parâmetros devem ser considerados durante o desenvolvimento do mesmo. Por exemplo, uma distribuição de ar não uniforme conduz a uma eficiência volumétrica não uniforme no cilindro, perda de potência e aumento do consumo de combustível. Por outro lado, as variações de pressão no coletor de admissão, devido aos efeitos pulsantes no escoamento do ar podem substancialmente aumentar ou reduzir o desempenho do motor. Atualmente, no Brasil, a maior parte dos coletores de admissão é fabricada a partir do nylon com fibra de vidro, pois proporciona redução de peso, redução de atrito nos dutos e geometrias internas complexas. Porém, novos fatores se tornam importante como redução de integridade estrutural e atender a requisitos de pressão de estouro. Este trabalho apresenta as principais etapas de desenvolvimento de um coletor de admissão plástico soldado por vibração. Primeiramente as principais dimensões do coletor são definidas a partir da simulação unidimensional. A partir disso, o modelo tridimensional é construído levando em consideração o espaço disponível no compartimento do motor e aspectos que permitam a injeção e solda das partes. Em seguida, a geometria interna do coletor é otimizada visando diminuir as perdas de carga aumentando a eficiência volumétrica. A integridade estrutural do coletor e solda deve ser analisada a fim de atender os requisitos do cliente. Ao confirmar o desenho do coletor de admissão através de testes com peças protótipos, se inicia a fabricação dos ferramentais de produção. / Intake manifold project is essential to achieve the best internal combustion engine performance, and, therefore, several parameters should be considered during it development. For instance, an uneven air distribution lead to uneven cylinder volumetric efficiency, power loss and increased fuel consumption. On the other hand, pressures variations within intake manifold due to air flow transient effects could substantially increase or decrease the engine performance. Nowadays, in Brazil, the majority of the intake manifolds are fabricated from nylon with glass fiber which provides weight reduction, wall friction reduction and complex internal geometries. However, new factors become important like structural integrity reduction and withstand to burst pressure. This work presents the mainly development stages of a plastic intake manifold vibration welded. First, the basic intake manifold dimensions are defined through one-dimensional simulation. From this, three-dimensional model is built considering the engine compartment space available and aspects which allows injection and welding process of manifold shells. Then, intake manifold internal geometry is optimized to minimize air flow losses, increasing the volumetric efficiency. Intake manifold structural integrity and welding quality should de evaluated to withstand customer requirements. Confirming the intake manifold drawing through tests with prototype parts, production tooling is started.

Design, Construction And Testing Of A Computerized Ignition Circuit For An Internal Combustion EngineCakmak, Nevzat 01 September 2012 (has links) (PDF)
In this study, an ignition unit was designed and constructed for a new design engine with eight cylinders and sixteen pistons. The ignition coils with two high voltage outputs were used to ignite sixteen spark plugs on the system. They were driven by PIC16F628A based igniter circuits triggered with digital signals. The igniter circuits receive ignition signals in a square wave form from a main control circuit / they open or close primary voltage of the induction coils to ignite spark plugs. This main control circuit is based on PIC16F877A / and there are two of them. The duty of main control circuit is to determine ignition advance according to engine speed and cooling water temperature, and send proper ignition signals to the igniter circuits. This main control circuit receives engine speed from the other main circuit (secondary control circuit) with serial communication and reads cooling water temperature and then it reads advance value from external eeprom memory according to engine speed and temperature. The main control circuit receives cylinder position signals from the secondary control circuit and adds advance value on them to form ignition timing signals which triggers igniter circuits. The secondary control circuit reads engine speed and determines cylinder positions with two magnetic pick-ups and LM2907 circuits on a gear wheel. This gear wheel was used to
simulate disks on the crank shaft of the cars, and driven with an electric motor. The ignition unit was tested for different engine speeds, and its proper working was proved.

A Detailed Multi-Zone Thermodynamic Simulation For Direct-Injection Diesel Engine CombustionXue, Xingyu 1985- 14 March 2013 (has links)
A detailed multi-zone thermodynamic simulation has been developed for the direct-injection (DI) diesel engine combustion process. For the purpose of predicting heterogeneous type combustion systems, the model explores the formation of pre-ignition radicals, start of combustion, and eventual heat release. These mechanisms are described based on the current understanding and knowledge of the diesel engine combustion acquired through advanced laser-based diagnostics. Six zones are developed to take into account the surrounding bulk gas, liquid- and vapor-phase fuel, pre-ignition mixing, fuel-rich combustion products as well as the diffusion flame combustion products. A three-step phenomenological soot model and a nitric oxide emission model are applied based on where and when each of these reactions mainly occurs within the diesel fuel jet evolution process.
The simulation is completed for a 4.5 liter, inline four-cylinder diesel engine for a range of operating conditions. Specifically, the engine possesses a compression ratio of 16.6, and has a bore and stroke of 106 and 127 mm. The results suggest that the simulation is able to accurately reproduce the fuel jet evolution and heat release process for conventional diesel engine combustion conditions. The soot and nitric oxide models are able to qualitatively predict the effects of various engine parameters on the engine-out emissions. In particular, the detailed thermodynamics and characteristics with respect to the combustion and emission formation processes are investigated for different engine speed/loads, injection pressures and timings, and EGR levels. The local thermodynamic properties and energy, mass distributions obtained from the simulation offer some fundamental insights into heterogeneous type combustion systems. The current work provides opportunities to better study and understand the diesel engine combustion and emission formation mechanisms for conventional diesel engine combustion modes. The flexible, low computational cost features of this simulation result in a convenient tool for conducting parametric studies, and benefits for engine control and diagnostics.

Design of Conjugate Cam Mechanisms for Internal Combustion EnginesChung, Huai-Sheng 04 January 2012 (has links)
Due to the kinematic limitation of slider-crank mechanisms used in traditional internal combustion engines, such devices driven by their piston motions have a difficulty to reach the better fuel efficiency. In order to make the fuel efficiency better, many engine mechanisms that can be tuned to obtain desired piston motions have been proposed. Since most of the proposed engine mechanisms have complex linkages and bulky size, they become impractical for real applications. The design of a conjugate cam engine mechanism containing a conjugate cam with a slider crank mechanism can be conveniently tuned to produce a desired piston motion in consideration of a limited space, weight, and the number of linkages.
The aim of this research is to set up a systematic design and analysis procedure for conjugate cam engine mechanisms. First of all, the kinematic analysis of conjugate cam engine mechanisms is performed based on the rigid body transformation method to determinate the conjugate cam profiles. Then, the geometric properties including the pressure angle and radius of curvature are investigated. Also, in order to characterize the rigid body dynamic behavior of the mechanism, the Newton¡¦s Law is used to derive equations of motion. Finally, it is conducted to design and analyze a real system, and observe the real condition from the experiment to prove the theory is correct.

A Theoretical And Experimental Investigation For Developing A Methodology For Co/poly-generation Systems / With Special Emphasis On Testing, Energy And Exergy RatingBingol, Ekin 01 October 2010 (has links) (PDF)
A poly-generation system can be defined as the simultaneous and collocated generation of two or more energy supply types, aimed to maximize the utilization of the thermodynamic potential (efficiency) of the consumed energy resources. A Polygeneration system may involve co-generation (power and heat) or tri-generation (power, heat, and cold) processes and may also be connected to a district energy system. A poly-generation plant reclaims heat in a useful form that would be wasted otherwise in separate electricity and heat (and chilled water in some cases) generating systems. By this way a poly-generation plant provides a variety of benefits including improved efficiency and fuel savings, reduction of the primary
energy demand total cost of utility service and unit fuel cost, independency for energy and protection of environment. With the overall efficiencies in the range of 70-90%, poly-generation systems are gaining popularity all around the world. including Turkey. In spite of all their potential benefits and increasing interest for poly-generation systems, there is not yet any rating, testing, metrication and classification guidelines and standards. It is indeed very important to rate the performance and energy savings potential, determine the heat and power outputs, estimate the system efficiency and the ratio of the split of the power produced between thermal and electric. These are the information which are hard to determine since there are not enough common test standards, rating standards and nor consensus-based terminology for combined heat and power systems in the world literature. Even the classification of the cogeneration systems is hardly globalized. Aim of this study is to develop a common procedure with respect to the above shortcomings for testing and rating poly-generation systems under realistic operating conditions with accurate formulae which will help to contribute energy and exergy economy by establishing a robust metrication standard based on new evaluation parameters. This study aims to find a procedure to evaluate a poly-generation system by establishing standard test methods and evaluation tools in terms of parameters like energy and exergy characteristics of thermal and electric loads, temperature demand and power split for determining operational characteristics of the system. This may be achieved by revising and expanding DIRECTIVE 2004/8/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL. A case study is expected to be based on a trigeneration power plant to be received within the framework of the EU FP6 HEGEL Poly-generation project, to be tested at METU, which has a capacity of 145 kW electric and 160 kW useful heat.
