Two zone combustion models for second law analysis of internal combustion engines

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5526828
In this paper second law analyses of both spark-ignition and diesel engines are presented using two-zone models. The analyses include descriptions of the evaluation of the various terms in the availability balance. The analyses for the spark-ignition and diesel models are applied in a parametric study of the effects of equivalence ratio, fuel-air mixing, residual fraction and combustion duration on the chemical and thermochemical availability and the irreversibility.
