Title: Improving the Environmental Performance of the Diesel Engine (21/21) by Upgrading the Fuel Supply System
Abstract: This article presents the results of fine-tuning work to improve the fuel supply process for a diesel engine (dimension 21/21) operating according to the Miller cycle. The purpose of the study is to improve the technical, economic and environmental performance of a diesel engine. The article provides a brief overview of the current state of research in the areas of modernization of diesel engines. The features of using the Miller cycle on a diesel engine operating according to diesel locomotive characteristics are described. Bench tests of the diesel engine were carried out at the Ural Diesel-Motor Plant LLC (Russia). Optimal fuel injection advance angles were established for different operating modes of the diesel engine as a result of a set of fine-tuning measures. It was revealed that the choice of the optimal fuel injection advance angle allows to reduce the specific fuel consumption by up to 15%. It was found that an increase in the amount of NOx emissions occurs with an increase in the fuel injection advance angle.
