Abstract

The assembly consistency of a diesel engine will affect its nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission variation. In order to improve the NOx emissions of diesel engines, a study was carried out based on the assembly tolerance variation of the diesel engine’s combustion system. Firstly, a diesel engine which meets the Euro VI standards together with the experimental data is obtained. The mesh model and combustion model of the engine combustion system are built in the Converge software (version 2.4, Tecplot, Bellevue, DC, USA), and the experimental data is used to calibrate the combustion model obtained in the Converge software. Then, the four-factor and three-level orthogonal simulation experiments are carried out on the dimension parameters that include nozzle extension height, throat diameter, shrinkage diameter and combustion chamber depth. Through mathematical analysis on the experimental data, the results show that the variation of nozzle extension height and combustion chamber depth have a strong influence on NOx emission results, and the variation of combustion chamber diameter also has a weak influence on NOx production. According to the regression model obtained from the analysis, there is a quadratic function relating the nozzle extension height and NOx emissions and the amount of NOx increases with increasing nozzle extension height. The relationship between emission performance and size parameters is complex. In the selected size range, the influence of the variation of the chamber diameter on NOx is linear. The variation of the chamber depth also has an effect on NOx production, and the simulation results vary with the change of assembly tolerance variation. Thus, in the engine assembly process, it is necessary to strictly control the nozzle extension height and combustion chamber depth. The research results are useful to improve the NOx emission of diesel engine and provide a basis for the control strategy of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) devices.
