Abstract

Combined effects of compression ratios and steam injection on performance, combustion and emission characteristics of a HCCI engine are numerically investigated. The pollutant emission is controlled by the dilution of the reactant by steam injection. Combustion is performed by using the Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) model. For model assessment, computed results are compared to the published data available in the literature obtained with same boundary conditions. An overall satisfactory agreement is reported. Three values of steam injection ratio are tested. Results show that the performance of the HCCI engine is very low if the steam injection exceed 20%.
