| ABSTRACT |
|
EGR is one of the proven and well tested strategies within the specific operating range of the engine. Necessity of an implementation of this exhaust gas recirculation all over the engine operating range is emerging. Therefore, a systematic study has been carried out to identify the specific and frequent transient operations on newly developed dynamic cycles like WLTC and RDE. To perform detailed observations, these transients are imitated individually on the diesel engine test bench. High frequency gas analyzers are used to track the instantaneous CO2 and NOx concentration respectively at the intake and exhaust lines of the engine. A parametric study has been carried out using different valve movement profiles of the LPEGR and HPEGR during severe engine load change operations. An analysis is presented suggesting the best suited valve control during these harsh transients which can be helpful for transient calibration of a turbocharged diesel engine. The effect of length of Long route LPEGR line is also acknowledged. This study reveals the dynamic behavior of a diesel engine during transient operation with exhaust gas recirculation. It outlines the trade-off between performance and NOx emission and opacity for the initial phase of the transient before acquiring the steady state situation. |
