A Comparison in Combustion Characteristics in a CVCC with Biodiesel Blends

: This paper presents the comparison of combustion characteristics in a constant volume combustion chamber (CVCC) with alternative fuel biodiesel blends. To achieve this goal, a CVCC experimental was established, and the biodiesel was made from ﬁsh oil and was used as test fuel. The combustion process of diesel fuel (B0) and bio-diesel 10% (B10) will be investigated based on doing experiments with two conditions: air-fuel mixed before and after ignition timing. The inﬂuence of the oxygen concentration on the burning process is also being investigated. The results of the research show that the heat release rate of B0 is faster and higher than that of B10 in the case of air-fuel mixed before ignition timing. In the case of after ignition timing, these values are almost similar to B0 and B10.


Introduction
Current internal combustion engines are one of the main driving forces in many economic sectors, especially manufacturing and transportation. The fuel used for internal combustion engines usually consists of petroleum distillate products, such as gasoline and diesel [1,2]. The use of this fuel increases the need for energy [3,4] and increases the globe's environmental pollution [5][6][7]. Alternative fuels and energy are known as effective methods to solve this problem [8,9]. Biodiesel is used as a potential fuel for internal combustion engines [10][11][12][13], and it provides numerous benefits [14][15][16][17][18][19]. Biodiesel, on the other hand, can be made from a variety of common raw materials, including agricultural waste, animal fat, waste oil, and algae [20,21], and by developing biodiesel plans, developing countries can participate in sustainable agriculture [22,23].When researching the fuel used for internal combustion engines, research on combustion is essential for engine optimization, including mixture formation and combustion studies, fuel injection time, ignition timing, fuel combustion time, flame spread rate, rate of pressure increase, and the equivalent ratio between fuel and air [24][25][26]. When studying the combustion process in the engine, there are many difficulties, such as non-transparent combustion chambers, so it is difficult to observe and take photos from the outside. In addition, the cost of designing and building the fire chamber is large. Research on mixture formation and fire in the CVCC combustion chamber will limit the many disadvantages of mixture formation and combustion in the traditional combustion chamber. Since then, the design of the constant-volume combustion chamber has been used for practical applications to improve engine productivity.
A constant volume combustion chamber is a combustion chamber with many quartz windows and throughput, so it is easy to see the inside of the chamber. Using CVCC has the advantage of being able to easily change combustion parameters, such as the air-fuel ratio, and detecting combustion, controlling the combustion process, and evaluating mixture formation and combustion of different fuels. The HCCI fire model with the advantages of high thermal efficiency and very small NOx and PM emissions is one of the research and development directions of engines in the future. This fire model is born that can ensure the strict requirements for emissions and reduce the pressure on fuel sources from oil, because this type of engine is very suitable for using alternative fuels of biological origin [35,36]. The HCCI engine has the above advantages because it combines the advantages of both diesel engines (thermal efficiency) and gasoline engines (emissions). The engine has no throttle on the intake and works with light blends. These factors improve thermal efficiency. When a homogeneous mixture is created, there are no local areas with a high fuel density. Therefore, the process of diffuse combustion does not take place, reducing PM particle emissions [37,38].
This paper presents the combustion process in a constant volume combustion chamber when the mixture is mixed in two cases, pre-mixing and post-mixing, with diesel fuel and bio-diesel 10%. With the evolution of the combustion process, the pressure in the cylinder and the heat release rate of the test combustion chamber running on the biodiesel mixture are compared with the combustion chamber running on standard diesel fuel. The main purpose of this work is to compare the combustion characteristics of a CVCC with biodiesel blends in two cases: pre-mixing and post-mixing. In addition, optimization of engine operating parameters is also carried out to improve engine characteristics with different blends of biodiesel fuel.

Test Chamber Combustion
The combustion chamber used in this study is a constant volume combustion chamber. This combustion chamber has many transparent and quartz doors, so it is easy to see the inside of the chamber. Table 1 shows the specifications of the combustion chamber. The CVCC combustion chamber has its own fuel and gas supply system. Therefore, it is easy to change the boundary conditions (temperature, pressure, and fire time) of the combustion process and can be researched for many different fuels.

Test Fuels
In this study, the test fuel is fossil diesel fuel, and the biodiesel fuel is palm oil. The fatty acid components of biodiesel are presented in Table 2. Some physical and chemical properties of the test fuel corresponding to B0 and B10 are presented in Table 3. Fuel B10 has a volume percentage of 10%. The parameters of some physical and chemical properties of the fuel are determined by a specialized unit by the Institute of Industrial Chemistry of Vietnam. B10 fuel is a blend of 90% by volume of B0 and 10% by volume of B100.

Test Equipment
The AVL FLEXIFEM pressure measuring device and the AVL GH13Z-31 cylinder pressure sensor measure pressure changes in cylinders. This is a pressure sensor type GH13Z-31 from AVL, a pressure sensor mounted directly to the combustion chamber body to measure the pressure in the cylinder of the combustion chamber. This is a quartz pressure sensor that detects the pressure in the cylinder through the polarized quartz crystals, creating an electric field in the crystal with the basic parameters as shown in Table 4 below. The CVCC test chamber can observe the burning process from the outside through an observation glass.
Balance of fuel: The amount of fuel that the vehicle consumes is measured with a fuel consumption measuring device, fuel balance AVL 733S, using the weight method. The system fuel allows for highly accurate fuel consumption measurements, even at low consumption and short measurement times. The measuring range of the device is up to 150 kg/h with an accuracy of 0.12%.

Experimental Setup
Diesel fuel is put into the combustion chamber and mixed first with the gas mixture (C 2 H 2 , O 2 , and N 2 ) in the combustion chamber with a certain percentage, ensuring that the percentage of moles of oxygen after reacting with C 2 H 2 is 20% in the combustion product. The amount of oxygen supplied must be such that the ratio A/F = 1.2. Experimental fuel injection is done at high pressure (1500 bar). After closing all valves and starting the mixing process (turning on the fan to mix the gas and fuel mixture), igniting the electric spark ignites the mixture of gas and test fuel. Images of combustion in the combustion chamber were taken with the high-speed camera Chrónos 4.1 (camera captures up to 40,000 frames/second). The pressure of the combustion chamber was measured with AVL QQ33C cylinder pressure sensor and recorded with the AVL pressure gauge FLEXIFEM.
The experimental condition was to ensure that the fuel is mixed uniformly and that combustion takes place. Operating a three-phase electric motor running at a steady 15 Hz frequency corresponds to a pump rotational speed of 900 rpm, which ensured that the fuel system pressure is satisfactory and that the injector pressure reaches 1500 bar. To ensure that the ratio between fuel and air does not depend on the outside air condition, it needs to be in a vacuum and the initial pressure for the combustion chamber needs to be set. The intake air control system is responsible for loading the gases in the mixture (C 2 H 2 , N 2 , and O 2 ) in turn into the combustion chamber so that the amount of oxygen after the reaction is 20%. In the case of blending before the CNLM time, a combustion chamber temperature of 450 K will ensure that the fuel evaporates when it is injected into the combustion chamber. The time of fuel injection before the time of priming fuel injection will help the fuel to be mixed longer with the gas mixture inside the combustion chamber. The fan mixes before the fuel injection time 2 (s) and ends when the primer fuel starts to burn. Combined with a very-high-speed mixing fan, the mixture is homogenized in CVCC before self-ignition (HCCI). The experimental conditions are shown in Table 5. Experimental Layout Diagram Image acquisition system is shown in Figure 1: Layout of a combustion image information collection system in CVCC.

Results and Discussion
The combustion in the constant volume combustion chamber (CVCC) takes place in two phases. The first stage is to burn gas mixtures (C2H2, N2, and O2) to create an initial pressure and temperature to create burning conditions for fuel injection. The second stage is to burn diesel fuel or bio-diesel fuel injected into the combustion chamber. Below, we go into the specific details of the combustion process. The results of this study are shown in the imaging of the combustion chamber, which shows the spread of the flame film in the combustion chamber according to the HCCI principle with complete mixing of the mixture before and after the ignition.

3.1. Pri-Mixture before Ignition 3.1.1. Flame Membrane Development Figure 4 shows the spread of the flame film in the constant volume combustion chamber of the two tested fuels. For B0 fuel, the image from the appearance of the spark to the propagation of the entire combustion chamber is four images from a time of 1-4 ms. For 10% bio-diesel fuel (B10), there are five images from time 1-5 ms. Thus, it can be seen that the flame spread rate of diesel fuel (B0) is much higher than that of bio-diesel fuel (B10).  Figure 4 shows the spread of the flame film in the constant volume combustion chamber of the two tested fuels. For B0 fuel, the image from the appearance of the spark to the propagation of the entire combustion chamber is four images from a time of 1-4 ms.

Diesel (  Specifically, diesel and bio-diesel fuel have flame membrane lengths of 44 (mm) and 17 (mm), respectively. Figures 5 and 6 show that the flame spread rate of diesel fuel is about two times higher than that of bio-diesel fuel, which is 10%. The reason is that diesel fuel has a higher low calorific value, a lower flash point, lower viscosity, and better airconditioning quality, resulting in faster flame film propagation.

Evolution of the Pressure in the Cylinder
We studied the premixed fuel mixtures in the CVCC combustion chamber. Figure 7 shows an earlier combustion pressure of diesel fuel, a shorter delay time, and a greater slope than bio-diesel fuel of 10% (B10). This may be because diesel fuel has a higher lowcalorific value and, therefore, a higher pressure. The more ventricular viscosity should be mixed at a higher peak pressure rise rate. Because of the lower flash point and shorter mixing time, the fuel burns faster and has a higher peak pressure than 10% biodiesel fuel (B10).  Figure 8 shows that the rate of increase in pressure of diesel fuel took place earlier and higher than that of bio-diesel fuel, as shown in the pressure slope of the two fuels. This means the diesel-air-fuel mixture has a higher homogeneity and is much more volatile than the 10% bio-diesel fuel (B10)-air blend, which means speed, higher heat generation, faster, and earlier finish of the diesel-air mixture compared to the 10% (B10)-air biodiesel blend. In the first phase, the rate of increase in pressure of diesel fuel increases very rapidly (from 14 ms to 16 ms) to reach peak pressure, while for bio-diesel fuel, the pressure increase process has not taken place yet output (the late fire phase takes place more slowly). This is clearly shown in the percent of combined fuel.

Figure 9 shows that the percentage of burned fuel of B0 fuel reaches its maximum value earlier and faster than 10% bio-diesel fuel (B10) in the early stages of combustion. Then, it tapered off and was smaller than fuel B10. The reason is that the higher viscosity of B10 fuel is more difficult to mix in the early stages, but in the later stages, a higher percentage of the B10 fuel burned because of the oxygen content inside the fuel.  Figure 10 shows that the heat generation of diesel fuel (B0) takes place earlier, has a higher heat rate, and finishes faster than the bio-diesel fuel (B10). In the figure, we see that the exothermic value of B0 is higher and earlier than that of B10. The main reason is the low calorific value and flash point of B0 fuel compared to B10 fuel.   Figure 9 shows that the percentage of burned fuel of B0 fuel reaches its maximum value earlier and faster than 10% bio-diesel fuel (B10) in the early stages of combustion.

Figure 11 shows the flame film spread and light intensity in a constant volume combustion chamber of the two tested fuels. For B0 and B10 fuels, the image from the time the spark appears to the entire combustion chamber is 12 pictures. Thus, it can be seen that the spread rate of diesel fuel (B0) is 10% higher than that of bio-diesel fuel (B10), but this value does not change much. Those figures were captured after 1 ms. The flame membrane development can be observed.

The flame membrane development can be observed.  Figure 12 shows that the pressure changes in the cylinder for all fuels tested in all modes have similar rules to those in traditional diesel engines. The beginning of the rapid increase in pressure corresponds to the earlier end of the biodiesel fuel's low combustion phase. Peak pressures tend to shift to the left (shorter time) and have a lower value as the biodiesel blend ratio increases. The reason is that 10% bio-diesel fuel (B10) has a higher solubility value, so the preparation time for combustion is shorter. The peak pressure of the 10% bio-diesel fuel is slightly lower because the low calorific value of the 10% biodiesel fuel is lower than that of diesel fuel.

Combustion Pressure Raise
The rate of pressure increase of the test fuel is shown in Figure 13, which shows that the law of increasing pressure in the combustion chamber of two fuels has the same law. Specifically, the rate of increase in pressure of fuel B10 takes place earlier and reaches a smaller value than that of fuel B0. The main cause is the properties of the fuel. Specifically, the properties of low calorific value and dissipation value directly affect the rate of increase in pressure of the two fuels.

Heat Release Rate
Biodiesel fuel with a higher viscosity makes it difficult to mix the mixture, resulting in a shorter mixture of air and fuel prepared during a shorter delay phase, leading to rapid combustion; it took place earlier. The lower peak pressure compared to when using diesel fuel is due to the lower calorific value. This is also shown for the evolution of the heat rate in the combustion chamber cylinder (Figure 14). The principle of the evolving rate of heat in a cylinder is similar to that of evolution in pressure. Specifically, the value of B0 fuel's heat is greatest and decreases gradually when the blending ratio of biodiesel increases ( Figure 13).

The principle of the evolving rate of heat in a cylinder is similar to that of evolution in pressure. Specifically, the value of B0 fuel's heat is greatest and decreases gradually when the blending ratio of biodiesel increases ( Figure 13).

Specifically, the value of B0 fuel's heat is greatest and decreases gradually when the blending ratio of biodiesel increases ( Figure 13).  Figure 15 shows that B10 fuel burns earlier and burns 100% of the fuel earlier than B0 fuel. This may be due to the shorter 10% bio-diesel fuel mixture preparation time and higher solubility value. Then, it gradually decreases and gets smaller in the remaining combustion phases of combustion. This is probably due to the higher bio-diesel fuel viscosity, which makes the post-burn period longer than that of traditional diesel fuel.

Conclusions
When studying the combustion of two types of diesel fuel (B0) and bio-diesel 10% (B10) in a constant volume combustion chamber, the authors come to the following conclusions.
When studying the flame propagation speed of two fuels, the mixture before ignition, under the same study conditions, the flame film spread rate of diesel fuel was about 2.6 times higher than that of bio-diesel fuel. The combustion of diesel fuel takes place earlier and reaches its maximum pressure value earlier; the rate of increase in pressure is 10% faster in the late combustion period compared to bio-diesel fuel. The percentage of diesel fuel burned takes place earlier and reaches its maximum value 10% earlier than bio-diesel fuel.

This means that the bio-diesel fuel's delayed combustion pressure of 10% occurs earlier, peaks earlier, and ends earlier than conventional diesel fuel.

Percent of Burned Fuel Figure 15 shows that B10 fuel burns earlier and burns 100% of the fuel earlier than B0 fuel. This may be due to the shorter 10% bio-diesel fuel mixture preparation time and higher solubility value. Then, it gradually decreases and gets smaller in the remaining combustion phases of combustion. This is probably due to the higher bio-diesel fuel viscosity, which makes the post-burn period longer than that of traditional diesel fuel. 3.2.5.

In the future, the authors will focus on optimizing the engine operation parameters with various biodiesel blends to improve engine performance. In addition, observations of the combustion of diesel engines and their changes when using biodiesel blends will be investigated.
