In recent years, the fuel injection pressures increased to very high level for more efficient internal combustion engines. With developing technology, it is expected that components must resist at least 2500 bar pressure working conditions. These high pressure levels must accompany with better properties such as mechanical, fatigue and corrosion. Automotive industry mostly use quenched and tempered steels for such critical applications. However, it is known that, bainitic steels have better mechanical properties in terms of UTS, toughness and fatigue. In recent years, bainitic forging steels are emerged as an alternative to Q&T steels. Furthermore, as bainite forms during continuous cooling from austenite region, the Q&T steps is omitted. However, there are only a few bainitic forging grade steels in the market. In this study, the bainite formation and its effect on mechanical properties of a continuous cooled forging grade experimental steel is investigated. By using the calculated CCT diagrams (Continuous Cooling Transformation), a basic alloy 0.2C-1.50Si-1.40Mn-1.45(Cr+Mo) is selected as an experimental steel. The formation of bainite and its morphology upon different cooling rates is observed. The effect of Ti, Nb and S addition on properties is also studied. The amount of retained austenite of the samples are analyzed using XRD. The DTA analysis is used to find the exact Bs and Ms temperature of the steel. The tensile strength and charpy impact toughness tests are carried out. It is found that the 0.01%Ti vi added experimental steel yields high toughness levels (around 20J) at a strength level of 1250 MPa and 16% elongation. Furthermore, it is found that the bainite formation is possible at a large interval of cooling rate which can be an advantage in industrial forging practice.

Validation of MISES Two-Dimensional Boundary Layer Code for High-Pressure Turbine Aerodynamic Design
ANDREW, PHILIP; Kahveci, Harika Senem (ASME International, 2009-07-01)
Avoiding aerodynamic separation and excessive shock losses in gas turbine turbomachinery components can reduce fuel usage and thus reduce operating cost. In order to achieve this, blading designs should be made robust to a wide range of operating conditions. Consequently, a design tool is needed-one that can be executed quickly for each of many operating conditions and on each of several design sections, which will accurately capture loss, turning, and loading. This paper presents the validation of a bounda...
Numerical study of combustion and emission characteristics of dual-fuel engines using 3D-CFD models coupled with chemical kinetics
Maghbouli, Amin; Saray, Rahim Khoshbakhti; Shafee, Sina; Ghafouri, Jafar (2013-04-01)
Dual-fuel combustion provides a relatively easy and inexpensive alternative to conventional diesel engine combustion by drastically reducing fuel consumption with comparable performance characteristics. Accurate simulation of the dual-fuel combustion requires utilization of a detailed chemistry combined with a flow simulation code. In the present study, the combustion process within the diesel and diesel/gas dual-fuel engine is investigated by use of a coupled 3D-CFD/chemical kinetics framework. In this stu...

Modeling the effect of SCR denox unit on diesel engine performance
Pelen, Pelsu; Kazanç Özerinç, Feyza; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2020)
The design of the internal combustion engines and the aftertreatment systems cannot be considered independently since imposing an aftertreatment equipment into the exhaust system brings extra backpressure which in turn decreases the engine efficiency and increases the fuel consumption and CO2 emission. In the present study, the existing 3D monolith reactor model in COMSOL Multiphysics® applications is modified to account for an SCR deNOx unit having 600 cpsi cell density by using exhaust mass flow rate and ...
Sooting behavior of ethanol droplet combustion at elevated pressures under microgravity conditions
URBAN, BRADLEY D; KROENLEİN, KENNETH; KAZAKOV, ANDREİ; DRYER, FREDERİCK L; Yozgatlıgil, Ahmet; CHOI, MUN YOUNG; MANZELLO, SAMUEL L; LEE, KYEONG OOK; DOBASHİ, RİTSU (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2004-01-01)
Liquid ethanol is widely used in practical fuels as a means to extend petroleum-derived resources or as a fuel additive to reduce emissions of carbon monoxide from spark ignition engines. Recent research has also suggested that ethanol and other oxygenates could be added to diesel fuel to reduce particulate emissions. In this cursory study, the combustion of small ethanol droplets in microgravity environments was observed to investigate diffusion flame characteristics at higher ambient pressures and at vari...
