Abstract:
The present study established a CFD model for compound-ported rotary engine and validated by experimental results. The numerical model was employed to investigate the influence of engine speed on the performance of pure gasoline and hydrogen/gasoline bi-fuel rotary engines, respectively. Results showed that, the mass of OHà O and H radicals increased after hydrogen addition, which could accelerate the velocity of flame propagation and accordingly improve combustion efficiency. In-cylinder velocity and turbulent kinetic energy increased significantly with the increment of the engine speed, whereas the flame speed decreased in contrast to rotor movements. Compared with the engine speed of 3000 r/min, the peak pressure reduced by 4.22%, 11.17% and 22.21% for engine speed of 4500 r/min, 6000 r/min and 9000 r/min, and its corresponding crank angle retarded by 5.2℃A, 7.5℃A and 12.8℃A, respectively. When the engine speed was 3000 r/min, the carbon monoxide production was the lowest in the combustion chamber, though the nitric oxide mass increased slightly. © 2020, Science Press.
