Methanol as a fuel for combustion engines have attracted interest throughout history and much research was conducted during the oil crisis in the seventies. In the beginning of the eighties the oil prices began to decrease and interest in methanol declined. This paper presents the emission potential of methanol. T-Φ maps were constructed using a 0-D reactor with constant pressure, temperature and equivalence ratio to show the emission characteristics of methanol. These maps were compared with equivalent maps for diesel fuel. The maps were then complemented with engine simulations using a stochastic reactor model (SRM), which predicts end-gas emissions. The SRM was validated using experimental results from a truck engine running in Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) mode at medium loads. The SRM was able to predict the combustion in terms of pressure trace and rate of heat release. The CO and NOx emissions were matched, however, the HC emissions were underestimated. Finally, the trajectories from the SRM simulations were superimposed on the T-Φ maps to investigate the in engine conditions. The T-Φ map analysis shows that emission of soot are non-existent, formaldehyde can be avoided and that emissions of methane are kept at, compared to diesel combustion, low levels, however CO and NOx levels are similar to diesel combustion. These results were confirmed for engine conditions by the SRM simulations and the engine experiments.}, language = {en} } @misc{FrankenMauss, author = {Franken, Tim and Mauß, Fabian}, title = {Development of Methodology for Predictive Diesel Combustion Simulation Using 0D Stochastic Reactor Model}, series = {SAE Technical Papers}, journal = {SAE Technical Papers}, number = {2016-01-0566}, issn = {0148-7191}, doi = {10.4271/2016-01-0566}, pages = {14 Seiten}, abstract = {Stringent exhaust emission limits and new vehicle test cycles require sophisticated operating strategies for future diesel engines. Therefore, a methodology for predictive combustion simulation, focused on multiple injection operating points is proposed in this paper. The model is designated for engine performance map simulations, to improve prediction of NOx, CO and HC emissions.The combustion process is calculated using a zero dimensional direct injection stochastic reactor model based on a probability density function approach. Further, the formation of exhaust emissions is described using a detailed reaction mechanism for n-heptane, which involves 56 Species and 206 reactions. The model includes the interaction between turbulence and chemistry effects by using a variable mixing time profile. Thus, one is able to capture the effects of mixture inhomogeneities on NOx, CO and HC emission formation.The mixing time model is parameterized using transfer functions for engine operating parameters, e.g., injection mass, injection duration, air fuel ratio, start of injection and speed. These functions are calibrated for nine operating points using multi objective simulated annealing optimization combined with fast running metamodels that speed up the optimization process. The calibrated transfer functions are validated for nine additional operating points. The results for the calibration and validation points show a good match of the combustion heat release rate. Especially the main injection heat release rate is well predicted by the model. The NOx and CO emissions reflect the experimental trends and are in close range to the measurements. Finally, the model is tested for triple injection operating points. The results match the measurements, which show the applicability of the stochastic reactor model in conjunction with the mixing time transfer functions for engine performance map simulations.}, language = {en} } @misc{LehtiniemiBorgMauss, author = {Lehtiniemi, Harry and Borg, Anders and Mauß, Fabian}, title = {Combustion Modeling of Diesel Sprays}, series = {SAE Technical Papers}, journal = {SAE Technical Papers}, number = {2016-01-0592}, issn = {0148-7191}, doi = {10.4271/2016-01-0592}, pages = {1 -- 11}, abstract = {Several models for ignition, combustion and emission formation under diesel engine conditions for multi-dimensional computational fluid dynamics have been proposed in the past. It has been recognized that the use of a reasonably detailed chemistry model improves the combustion and emission prediction especially under low temperature and high exhaust gas recirculation conditions.The coupling of the combustion chemistry and the turbulent flow can be achieved with different assumptions. In this paper we investigate a selection of n-heptane spray experiments published by the Engine Combustion Network (ECN spray H) with three different combustion models: well-stirred reactor model, transient interactive flamelet model and progress variable based conditional moment closure. All models cater for the use of detailed chemistry, while the turbulence-chemistry interaction modeling and the ability to consider local effects differ.The same chemical mechanism is used by all combustion models, which allows a comparison of ignition delay, flame stabilization and flame lift-off length between the experiments and the results from simulations using the different combustion models. The investigated parameters influence the predictions of computational fluid dynamics simulations of diesel engines. This study indicates that the most reasonable behavior with respect to ignition, flame stabilization and flame structure is predicted by the progress variable based conditional moment closure model.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MaussMatrisciano, author = {Mauß, Fabian and Matrisciano, Andrea}, title = {SRM in Engines: Performance and Emissions}, series = {3rd International Combustion Institute Summer School, June 19-23, Chania, Greece}, booktitle = {3rd International Combustion Institute Summer School, June 19-23, Chania, Greece}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LeondeSyniawaNawdiyalSeideletal., author = {Leon de Syniawa, Larisa and Nawdiyal, A. and Seidel, Lars and Mauß, Fabian}, title = {Formation of C5 Species from iso-Butene}, series = {Book of Abstracts, SMARTCATs 2nd General Meeting \& Workshop on Smart Energy Carriers in Industry Lisbon, 14-16 November - 2016}, booktitle = {Book of Abstracts, SMARTCATs 2nd General Meeting \& Workshop on Smart Energy Carriers in Industry Lisbon, 14-16 November - 2016}, pages = {42 -- 43}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MalliotakisBanyonCurranetal., author = {Malliotakis, Zisis and Banyon, Colin and Curran, Henry J. and Founti, Maria and Keramiotis, Christos and Vourliotakis, George and Koutmos, Panagiotis and Paterakis, George and Souflas, Konstantinos and Mauß, Fabian and Rodriguez Henriquez, Jose Juan and Skevis, George}, title = {A Comperative Study on the Oxidation of Gaseous and Liquid fuels in a Swirlstabilized Flame via Chemiluminescence Measurements}, series = {Book of abtracts, COST SMARTCATs 2nd General Meeting, Lisbon, 14-16th November}, booktitle = {Book of abtracts, COST SMARTCATs 2nd General Meeting, Lisbon, 14-16th November}, publisher = {Cost, European Cooperation in Science and Technology}, pages = {84 -- 85}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MatriscianoBorgPerlmanetal., author = {Matrisciano, Andrea and Borg, Anders and Perlman, Cathleen and Pasternak, Michal and Seidel, Lars and Netzer, Corinna and Mauß, Fabian and Lehtiniemi, Harry}, title = {Simulation of DI-Diesel combustion using tabulated chemistry approach}, series = {1st Conference on Combustion Processes in Marine and Automotive Engines, 7th - 8th June 2016, Lund, Schweden}, booktitle = {1st Conference on Combustion Processes in Marine and Automotive Engines, 7th - 8th June 2016, Lund, Schweden}, pages = {44 -- 47}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SeidelNetzerHilbigetal., author = {Seidel, Lars and Netzer, Corinna and Hilbig, Martin and Mauß, Fabian and Klauer, Christian and Pasternak, Michal and Matrisciano, Andrea}, title = {Systematic Reduction of Detailed Chemical Reaction Mechanisms for Engine Applications}, series = {ASME 2016 Internal Combustion Engine Division Fall Technical Conference Greenville, South Carolina, USA, October 9-12, 2016}, booktitle = {ASME 2016 Internal Combustion Engine Division Fall Technical Conference Greenville, South Carolina, USA, October 9-12, 2016}, publisher = {The American Society of Mechanical Engineers}, address = {New York, N.Y.}, isbn = {978-0-7918-5050-3}, pages = {12}, abstract = {In this work we apply a sequence of concepts for mechanism reduction on one reaction mechanism including novel quality control.
