Thermodynamic analysis of a twin cylinder CI engine operated on diesel fuel

Abstract

At the present scenario there is a need of thermodynamic analysis of compression ignition (CI) engine to evaluate its energy utilization efficiency, which will locate and quantify the amount of quality energy lost from the engine at different heads. In this paper, the analysis of energy, exergy, maximum combustion temperature and exhaust gas temperature of a CI engine using diesel is performed. The results indicate that brake thermal efficiency, exergy efficiency, mean gas temperature increases with increase in load and relatively brake specific fuel consumption decreases. At the same time destruction of exergy also increases with engine load, this indicates a potential of waste heat recovery from the CI engine to improve its overall efficiency.
