The increase of popularity of reactivity-controlled compression ignition (RCCI) is attributed to its capability of achieving ultra-low nitrogen oxides (NOx) and soot emissions with high brake thermal efficiency (BTE). The complex and nonlinear nature of the RCCI combustion makes it challenging for model-based control design. In this work, a model-based control system is developed to control the combustion phasing and the indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP) of RCCI combustion through the adjustments of total fuel energy and blend ratio (BR) in fuel injection. A physics-based nonlinear control-oriented model (COM) is developed to predict the main combustion performance indicators of an RCCI marine engine. The model is validated against a detailed thermo-kinetic multizone model. A novel linear parameter-varying (LPV) model coupled with a model predictive controller (MPC) is utilized to control the aforementioned parameters of the developed COM. The developed system is able to control combustion phasing and IMEP with a tracking error that is within a 5% error margin for nominal and transient engine operating conditions. The developed control system promotes the adoption of RCCI combustion in commercial marine engines. |
