Popis: | This paper reports on combustion experiments which were conducted on a spark-ignited single-cylinder engine operating on natural gas. A special open chamber cylinder head was designed to accept as many as four spark plugs. Data were obtained to investigate the effects of spark plug quantity and location on NO[sub x], HC, CO emissions, brake and indicated thermal efficiency, MBT timing, combustion duration, ignition delay, peak cylinder pressure, peak cylinder temperature, and heat release over a wide range of equivalence ratios. |
