Test campaign/combustion analysis
• There are no misfires on normal operation, although the variability of heat released is higher than in SI conventional combustion it can be assumed that all the fuel is burned
• The cycle to cycle and cylinder to cylinder variability on the heat released and in the TOC is higher than in SI conventional combustion. The previous might be cased by higher scavenging variability (residual gases, short-circuit)
• The energy obtained from fuel is slower than expected (a 20% less than in SI combustion) that can be explained by a 20% of short-circuit

Engine modelling and validation
• In-house 1D simulation software for Virtual Engine MODelling: VEMOD. Developed by the CMT-Motores Térmicos research institute.
• Copes with any engine aspect.• The model timing and kinematic checked. For this purpose,
instantaneous experimental data is taken as basis.• Possibility to differentiate whether perfect displacement/mixture
during gas exchange process.• Once the model is (partially) validated, some studies are pretended:
– Parametric studies: engine configuration, rpm, boundaries, boosting degree, load degree…
– Analysis of the experimental results can be also pretended, to detect engine key points (short-circuit, gas exchange process…)

28
Predictive/forward parametric analysis
• Why working under stoichiometric mixture? What if…– A given pre-chamber is installed?– Lean combustion could be achieved and stable?
• Fr=0.6 has been forced into the simulations in order to identify if the target working zone could be reached: 30kW from 1500 to 3000 rpm and 230 g/kWh.
• It is necessary to work under FR close to 0.6 in order to guarantee NOx generation avoidance, since catalyst implementation is not possible in this engine configuration.

Conclusions
• Engine has been designed, assembled and tested.• Combustion analysis has been performed.• Engine model has also been developed and partially
checked: kinematics, combustion, air filling…• Potential engine usage areas and configurations have
also been explored.• Engine seems to behave as perfect mixture air filling
engine. There is a potential area to explore if ports are re-designed to avoid short-circuit: perfect displacement is compulsory.
33
Conclusions
• Obtained NSFC in the optimum and pursued operative area, is about 204 to 214 g/kWh. In this area, the engine can provide with 30-40 kW (Always in net terms).
• Lean combustion has been explored. Potential area of 30kW gives back a BSFC 195 g/kWh. However, operative area in terms of power target, is deeply reduced (not big issue if range extender is the application).
34
Future work• How do mechanical losses behave?• How to achieve the desired P2/P3?
– Twin entry turbocharger.– Volumetric compressor (direct impact on
power and efficiency).– Other VCR configuration (more engine
compression ratio)– Strategies to rise T3 (VCR, combustion):
More boost coming from TC and less demand on volumetric compressor.
