Description
Summary:A controlled auto-ignition (CAI) two-stroke cycle engine suggests an exceptional aspect and promising future for internal combustion engines (ICEs), such as a higher power-toweight ratio, higher combustion efficiency and lower exhaust gas emissions. Conventional two-stroke cycle engines emit higher exhaust gas emissions and offer lower fuel saving economy. Most of these drawbacks can be addressed if CAI combustion is associated with a two-stroke cycle engine. An experimental investigation is carried out based on a single-cylinder CAI two-stroke cycle engine using Internal and External Exhaust Gas Recirculation (In-EGR and Ex-EGR) and fuels with different octane numbers to investigate the exhaust emissions characteristics. The experimental results indicate a remarkable improvement in the engine's exhaust gas emissions. The concentration of uHC and CO emissions decreased with application of In/Ex-EGR. However, NOx emission increased with the use of In-EGR
