Fuels that can be produced in a sustainable manner are of high interest because they can provide an essential step toward net zero emissions vehicles. This study examines the combustion of two such fuels, Dimethyl Ether (DME) and propane, in a compression ignition, 4-cylinder, 2.2L engine running with mixtures of DME-to-Propane ranging of 100%-0%, 85%-15%, 75%-25%, and 65%-35% by weight. Testing was conducted at 2000rpm - 100Nm, an important representative point in the FTP certification cycle. For each fuel mixture, conditions tested include sweeps of boost, EGR and injection pressure. Tests are mainly conducted at a constant combustion timing with CA10 of -1 deg with respect to TDC, with an engine controller combustion feedback system based on in-cylinder sampling of pressure. Trends of NOx, HC, and CO are similar for the range of DME-to-propane, from 100%-0% to 75%-25%. Boost and injection pressures had the most notable impact on the heat release traces. Higher boost, from stoichiometric to lean resulted in approximately a 3-5% increase on cycle efficiency. Fuel injection pressures resulted in about 1% gain per 200bar. Results also illustrated that EGR is effective in reducing NOx but causes notable degradation of cycle efficiency. The emissions for DME-propane mixtures with 65%-35% had a different trend, with CO and HC exceeding the runs with lower propane content by 2 to 3-fold. As propane content increases, the pressure rise rates become higher, and with 65%-35% mixtures, rates easily exceed 12bar/deg. The increased rise rates correlate with early injection timings but the rates can be reduced, with higher boost and lower injection pressures. The result of the approach, however, leads to lower thermal efficiencies, decreasing efficiency by over 5% between neat DME and the highest propane ratios.
