Abstract

This paper studies the combustion and emission characteristics of three low octane fuels: naphtha, the blend of gasoline and diesel (G70D30), and the blend of gasoline and n-heptane (G70H30) in Multiple Premixed Compression Ignition (MPCI) mode. A commercial diesel fuel is also tested in conventional diesel combustion mode and double injection mode as a comparison. The study is carried out in a single cylinder diesel engine with a compression ratio of 16.7. By varying the common rail pressure, the effect of injection pressure on combustion and emissions is investigated.
