Combustion in CI engines
Physical Delay
Fuel atomization, vaporization, mixing with air etc
Chemical delay
Pre-flame reactions
14
Diesel Knock
Reason: Longer delay period
More amount of fuel is accumulated
More homogeneous mixture
More time for chemical reactions
Very high rate of pressure raise cause Knocking
Detonation in SI engine and knocking in CI engine are due to
autoignition of the mixture.
Shorter delay period is good for CI engine and longer delay period is
good SI engine. Hence change of parameters good for SI engine are not
good for CI engine and vice-versa.

SI Detonation and Diesel Knocking
SI engine detonation CI engine knocking
At the end of combustion At the beginning of combustion
process process
Mixture is homogeneous; Mixture is not so homogeneous;
pressure raise is very high pressure raise is less
comparatively
Leads to pre-ignition No question of pre-ignition as
fuel is injected very late
Spark starts the normal Both normal and knocking
combustion and autoignition combustion are due to
causes detonation autoignition

IC engine modelling
Simplified modeling of engines gives
reasonably accurate results
Zero dimensional models assume variations
only in time. Higher dimension models are
more accurate and more involved also.
We will discuss only zero dimensional models
here which will require empirical inputs for
closure.

Numerical Problem:
An SI engine has 92 mm bore and spark plug offset by 5 mm from the centre.
The engine when operating at 1500 rpm has the spark timing at 14 CA btdc.
The flame development period is equal to 6 CA. The fully developed flame
travels at 18.5 m/s. Find at what Crank angle the flame reaches the farthest end
of the combustion chamber. What is the magnitude of total combustion duration
in CA and ms? At engine speed of 4500 rpm the spark timing is advanced to
35 CA btdc. The flame development period in ms is not affected by the engine
speed. However, flame speed during the propagation phase of combustion
increases. If flame terminates at the same instant of CA in the cycle as at 1500
rpm, find the relation between the flame speed and the engine speed.
