It will be useful to understand which is the engine opens at the end of the expansion stroke, a large most efficient working cycle at light and part load, so quantity of high pressure exhaust gas is freed to the these working conditions may be used as specifications atmosphere, without using its availability. An engine that during car engine design. could use this lost energy should have a better efficiency. The major problem of the conventional S.I. engine at part The equations for an over-expanded cycle (Miller cycle) load is the throttling process and the consequential low are developed in this paper, together with equations for pressure at the end of the compression stroke. the Otto cycle, diesel cycle and dual cycle, all at part load, so they can be compared. The Miller cycle is based on the Otto cycle, having an expansion stroke which is longer than the compression Furthermore, indicated cycle thermodynamical stroke [1]. Intake valve is kept opened during a comparisons of a S.I. engine at part load (Otto cycle at significant part of the piston movement during half load), a S.I. engine at WOT (with half displacement) compression, so that part of the mixture contained in the and two over-expanded S.I. engines (with different cylinder is sent back to the inlet manifold, allowing the compression strokes) are examined and compared, with reduction of mixture mass that is “trapped” in the the aim of extending the referred theoretical cycle cylinder. The volume of “trapped” mixture corresponds to comparisons. the cylinder volume at the closure of the intake valve. Another way of implementing this cycle consists on INTRODUCTION closing the intake valve during the admission, long before BDC. The descent of the piston will create a depression inside the cylinder, achieving the atmospheric Spark ignition and compression ignition engines are still pressure somewhere during compression, near the the main power for automotive applications. The heavy position where the intake valve was closed on the traffic in cities and the high output of their engines does downward movement of the piston. not allow cars to use all the potential of their engines, working for most of the time at low loads. The standard S.I. engine that are used in cars are prepared to have the The new developments in variable valve timing (BMW best efficiency at full load, but as they are used very Valvetronic - [2]) and the possibility of compression ratio often at light loads, the amount of energy lost due to this change (SAAB) [3] allows the Miller cycle to be used at inefficiency is significant. the most effective (efficient) conditions at all times. The detailed investigation of this cycle as well as the expressions that describe it, are not matters usually explained in internal combustion engines literature [4]. A (expansion-compression ratio - σ), which is a set of equations was developed allowing the description characteristic parameter of the Miller cycle: of the Miller cycle [5], as well as the definition of the main variables that influence its development. Equations V V presented herein result of the application of σ = BDC = 5 (1.3) thermodynamic laws, without using other variables that VADM V1 influence the cycle performance (for example non- instantaneous combustion, heat transfer and internal From the parameters defined in (1.1) and (1.2) comes: friction). ε g ENGINE GEOMETRIC PARAMETERS σ = (1.4) ε tr In an internal combustion engine (Figure 1) with a fixed geometry the compression ratio (here named geometric Which means that σ also shows the relation between ε – g) is unique and defined by: geometric compression ratio and the trapped compression ratio. In the Otto cycle the value of this V V parameter is one, since that theoretically expansion ε = BDC = 5 g (1.1) equals compression. VTDC V2 OTTO CYCLE AT PART LOAD Spark Ignition engines when working at idle or at light loads usually lower the intake pressure of air to reduce load. When engines work under the Otto cycle this pressure reduction on the engine charge may be obtained by throttling, keeping the mixture at stoichiometric conditions, so that the three-way catalytic converter can work at optimal conditions. This will lead to a reduction on the intake pressure, and during the intake stroke the engine will work as an air pump. The reduction of the intake pressure leads to a reduction of the mass of air and fuel (assuming a stoichiometric mixture) trapped in the cylinder. In the p-V diagram of this cycle (Figure 2), the pumping work (negative) is represented by the area defined by 1’-6-7-1-1’ (or 5-6-7-1-5), while the positive work is 5-1’-2-3-4-5 (or 1-2-3-4-1). Figure 1 – p-V diagram of a Miller cycle. When studying the Miller cycle, due to the cycle operation (effective admission is shorter than the piston stroke), we have to consider another compression ratio that is the effective compression ratio (here named trapped - εtr ). This one is defined in the same manner described in (1.1), but instead of considering the V BDC , it is considered the cylinder volume at beginning of compression (where the pressure is still atmospheric). It results then: V V ε = ADM = 1 (1.2) tr VTDC V2 Figure 2 - p-V diagram of the Otto cycle at part load.

Haritos Faculty Reader Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Iqbal Husain Dr. George R. Newkome Date ii ABSTRACT The efficiencies of a four cylinder direct injection diesel engine have been investigated for the implementation in a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). The engine was cycled through various operating points depending on the power and torque requirements for the HEV. The selected engine for the HEV is a 2005 Volkswagen 1.9L diesel engine. The 2005 Volkswagen 1.9L diesel engine was tested to develop the steady-state engine efficiencies and to evaluate the transient effects on these efficiencies. The peak torque and power curves were developed using a water brake dynamometer. Once these curves were obtained steady-state testing at various engine speeds and powers was conducted to determine engine efficiencies. Transient operation of the engine was also explored using partial throttle and variable throttle testing. The transient efficiency was compared to the steady-state efficiencies and showed a decrease from the steady- state values.

Recently, hybrid electric vehicles, which combine electric and conventional combustion systems, have become the most popular alternative by far. This is due to longer autonomy and more extended refueling networks in comparison with the recharging points system, which is still quite limited in some countries. This paper aims to conduct a literature review on thermodynamic models of heat engines used in hybrid electric vehicles and their respective configurations for series, parallel and mixed powertrain. It will discuss the most important models of thermal energy in combustion engines such as the Otto, Atkinson and Miller cycles which are widely used in commercial hybrid electric vehicle models. In short, this work aims at serving as an illustrative but descriptive document, which may be valuable for multiple research and academic purposes.

  • Generation of Entropy in Spark Ignition Engines
    Int. J. of Thermodynamics ISSN 1301-9724 Vol. 10 (No. 2), pp. 53-60, June 2007 Generation of Entropy in Spark Ignition Engines Bernardo Ribeiro, Jorge Martins*, António Nunes Universidade do Minho, Departamento de Engenharia Mecânica 4800-058 Guimarães PORTUGAL [email protected] Abstract Recent engine development has focused mainly on the improvement of engine efficiency and output emissions. The improvements in efficiency are being made by friction reduction, combustion improvement and thermodynamic cycle modification. New technologies such as Variable Valve Timing (VVT) or Variable Compression Ratio (VCR) are important for the latter. To assess the improvement capability of engine modifications, thermodynamic analysis of indicated cycles of the engines is made using the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The Entropy Generation Minimization (EGM) method proposes the identification of entropy generation sources and the reduction of the entropy generated by those sources as a method to improve the thermodynamic performance of heat engines and other devices. A computer model created and implemented in MATLAB Simulink was used to simulate the conventional Otto cycle and the various processes (combustion, free expansion during exhaust, heat transfer and fluid flow through valves and throttle) were evaluated in terms of the amount of the entropy generated. An Otto cycle, a Miller cycle (over-expanded cycle) and a Miller cycle with compression ratio adjustment are studied using the referred model in order to evaluate the amount of entropy generated in each cycle. All cycles are compared in terms of work produced per cycle. Keywords: IC engines, Miller cycle, entropy generation, over-expanded cycle 1.

These engines a) ingest a mixture of fuel and air, b) compress it, c) cause it to react, thus effectively adding heat through converting chemical energy into thermal energy, d) expand the combustion products, and then e) eject the combustion products and replace them with a new charge of fuel and air.

  • Miller-Cycle on a Heavy Duty Diesel Engine

Sammanfattning Denna report beskriver ett examensarbete inom ämnet förbränningsmotorteknik och är utfört på Scania CV AB i Södertälje i sammarbete med Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan i Stockholm. Fordonsindustrin står inför nya utmaningar när en större fokusering på koldioxid (CO2) utsläpp från väg-gående fordon efterfrågas, vilket är direkt kopplat till fordonets bränsleförbrukning. Detta skall klaras av med lägre övriga emissioner i form av kväveoxider (NOx) och rök som är de två stora problemområdena för en dieselmotor. Scania vill därför undersöka potentialen med Miller cykling och om detta koncept skulle kunna implementeras på en lågeffektsmotor. Idén är att byta hög effekt mot verkningsgrad på motorer i motorprogrammet som inte utnyttjar hela grundmotorns effektpotential. Med Miller cykling menas senare- eller tidigarelagd stängning av insugsventilen och på så sätt öka graden expansionsarbete i förhållande till kompressionsarbete, dvs. öka den indikerade verkningsgraden. Då detta medför en minskning i effektiv slagvolym då cylindern inte fylls med luft helt måste kompensering i laddtryck göras för att motorn skall få samma luftmängd. En del kompressionsarbete görs då alltså utanför cylindern som belastar turbosystemet och inte motorn. En ny turbomatchning måste således göras då förflyttningar i turbomappen görs på ett mindre fördelaktigt sätt.
