Popis: An experimental study regarding methanol–diesel dual-fuel (DF) engines was conducted on a modified engine to explore the effects of pilot injection timing and period on the two-stage combustion process caused by the pilot injection strategy. In this study, the two-stage combustion process was determined according to the first two peaks of the second derivative of an in-cylinder pressure (d2p/dφ2) curve. The results show that the peak pressure rise rate (PRR) tended to decrease with advancing pilot injection timing at a high co-combustion ratio (CCR), which reduced combustion noise. The start of the combustion of the main injection diesel (SOC2) could be advanced by increasing the pilot injection period or advancing pilot injection timing at a 42% CCR. At an 18% CCR, the pilot injection timing and period had no significant effect on SOC2. With the advancement of pilot injection timing, the start of the combustion of pilot injection diesel (SOC1) advanced, and generally, the coefficient of variation of the PRR (COVPRR) of the two-stage combustion process increased first and then decreased. However, with the increase in the pilot injection period, SOC1 almost always remained constant and the COVPRR of the two-stage combustion process generally increased.
