Abstract
In-cylinder heat losses in diesel engines decrease engine efficiency
significantly and account for approximately 14-19% [1, 2, 3] of the injected fuel energy. A great part
of the heat losses during diesel combustion presumably arises from the flame
impingement onto the piston. Therefore, the present study investigates the heat
losses during flame impingement onto the piston bowl wall experimentally. The
measurements were performed on a full metal heavy-duty diesel engine with a
small optical access through a removed exhaust valve. The surface temperature at
the impingement point of the flame was determined by evaluating a phosphor’s
temperature dependent emission decay. Simultaneous cylinder pressure
measurements and high-speed videos are associated to the surface temperature
measurements in each cycle. Thus, surface temperature readings could be linked
to specific impingement and combustion events. The results showed a sharp
increase of the surface temperature during the flame impingement and an abrupt
decrease as the flame disappeared.
