ABSTRACT The air induction system plays a major role by providing necessary air charge for combustion to take place in an engine cylinder. The pressure drop across the air intake manifold is known to have a significant effect on the indicated power of the internal combustion engine. Most car manufacturers locate the air grill at the front of a vehicle to enhance the volumetric efficiency. However due to wading performance, for a sport utility vehicle like a Land Rover Freelander the air grill is located at the side of the front tyre. The air speed at the grill side is high and creates negative pressure, thus reducing the volumetric efficiency. Therefore, a thorough study of the design of the air induction system (AIS) with negative pressure at the air grill is vital, in order to fully understand the flow behavior in this AIS. Moreover, when the engine is equipped with turbocharger, the performance of the air intake system is also affected by the exhaust parameter which depends on the combustions of fuel in the engine cylinder. The properties of biodiesel are slightly different in density, viscosity and cetane number. These parameters are potentially affecting the combustion in engine cylinder. Thus, the investigation of the effect of fuel on the air intake system is vital for the study of the diesel engine operating with biodiesel. The analysis of the combustion of biodiesel in a V6 diesel engine includes the ignition delay, rate of heat release, in-cylinder peak pressure as well as the exhaust emissions. The study consists of 3 parts; (1) three-dimensional CFD analysis on the performance of the Land Rover Freelander AIS, (2) one-dimensional analysis of a V6 diesel engine with the effect of the AIS, (3) experimental study of a V6 diesel engine operating with RME and ULSD; The three-dimensional analyses on the performance 1 of a Freelander AIS have been conducted to study the effect of negative pressure on pressure-drop in the intake manifold. The results show that the magnitude of negative pressure gives significant effect not just to pressure drop but also to the flow behavior in the intake manifold. The steady flow tests on the actual intake manifold of a Freelander model have been conducted to validate the simulation outcome. The results show good agreement between experiment and simulation. In order to improve understanding on the flow wave action on the intake manifold of a V6 diesel engine, one-dimensional engine simulations have been conducted using commercial Ricardo WAVE v7.2 software. The result shows good agreement between simulation and experiment. The simulation result shows a significant affect on the wave action as pressure drop increases from zero to 20% in the intake manifold. The research continued further to investigate the effect of air induction parameters in the V6 diesel engine such as pressure drop and flow temperature on the performance and emissions of the engine. The effect of intake flow parameter to the engine when operated with RME has been studied and the comparisons have been made when ULSD is used as base fuel. The experimental results show that in general, the engine operating with RME produces lower power and higher bsfc due to low energy content of RME as compared to ULSD. The emissions of NOx are slightly higher, but lower CO and HC are produced. The pressure drop along the AIS has significantly affected the performance as well as emissions of the engine. The performance of the diesel engine drops significantly as the pressure drop increases and exhaust emissions increase considerably. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my gratitude and sincere thanks to my supervisor Professor Hongming Xu for his guidance, support and encouragement throughout my study.

  • Cyclone 3.5 L Ecoboost, 3.5 Duratech and 3.7 L Ti-VCT V6 Engine
    Cyclone 3.5L EcoBoost, 3.5 Duratech and 3.7L Ti-VCT V6 Engine Tech All 3 variants use the same forged crankshaft with 3.413” stroke. The difference is the bore, 3.64” for the 3.5/EcoBoost and 3.76” for the 3.7L version. The blocks are cast aluminum with floating cylinder walls and cast iron liners. They ap- pear to use the same block but we have not confirmed this yet. We’re interested to learn if the blocks use the same bell- housing pattern or are interchangeable between FWD, AWD and RWD applications. That was not the case with the 3.8 which used different FWD and RWD versions with the main difference being the bellhousing bolt patterns. Seems that just about all of the parts now use a QR symbol. All use the same powder metal connecting rod which includes a bushing on the pin end for a floating pin. The rod is shot peened for improved fatigue strength, has a decent cross-section and uses cap screws instead of through bolts. The rod shown on the left is a 96-04 3.8/4.2 powder metal rod, the Cyclone rod in the center and one of our favorite 351W forged I-beam rods on the right. Notice how the cross section of the Cyclone rod appears to be more like the 351W I-beam than the 3.8/4.2 rod which was much to weak for high perfor- mance applications. Only time, boost and nitrous will determine the durability and strength of the Cyclone rod, but since the EcoBoost engine has already been proven to provide exceptional durability in the 365-400 HP range with Ford’s factory tuning expertise, we can expect adequate durability at power levels around 500 HP or so with upper rev limits at 6500-7000 or so as long as the tuning is on the money without detonation.

  • Fuel Capabilities Broch LT36173GB.Pdf
    Fuel Filtration Capabilities FUEL Across the world, fuel cleanliness problems are causing costly damage to engines and components. Fuel Island On Engine –Remote On Engine – Spin On Clean Fuel throughout Filtration Mount Products FIE System Evolution of the Modern Diesel Engine Diesel engines have changed dramatically over recent decades in order to provide higher horsepower, better fuel efficiency, and greater reliability. This progression in technology has resulted in engine architecture that utilizes High Pressure Common Rail Fuel Systems (HPCR). Within these fuel systems are increased pressure (up to 30K psi or 2000 bar) and tighter tolerances. Fuel system component degradation can occur when organic and inorganic contamination, including water, enters the fuel. Protection against these potential threats is vital to maintain engine uptime and decrease maintenance costs. Global Emission Regulations Impact Operating Conditions The introduction of global clean air standards that focused on reduced particulate emissions (NOx) also increased the challenges for diesel engine fuel systems. Changing emissions regulations established the use of new ultra low sulphur diesel (ULSD) and biodiesel blends which created unique maintenance challenges for the fuel system. In some HPCR systems, particulate filtration efficiency requirements are as low as 2 microns, making finer filtration a critical requirement for modern diesel engines. Clean Fuel and Finer Filtration Clean, uncontaminated fuel is key to maximum fuel system protection in modern diesel engines. Without high quality fuel filtration and regularly scheduled service, fuel contamination can lead to costly repairs and engine downtime. Yet, a 2007 fuel cleanliness study found that more than 50% of fuel used worldwide does not meet the ISO 4408 18/16/13 (250,000 particles /100ml ,4μm) fuel cleanliness standard.
