Air Fuel Mixing Modeling For Direct And Transfer Port Injection In Two Stroke Engine
Two-stroke engines are commonly found in small transportation units in many South Asian countries. Due to high fuel losses during the scavenging process, the amount of pollution emitted by these two-stroke vehicles is significant. In this study, the details of a gaseous fuel direct injection system...

Two-stroke engines are commonly found in small transportation units in many South Asian countries. Due to high fuel losses during the scavenging process, the amount of pollution emitted by these two-stroke vehicles is significant. In this study, the details of a gaseous fuel direct injection system using Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) were investigated. A series of three-dimensional, Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulations in ANSYS Fluent are run on various injection geometries, and the air/fuel mixing of the resulting cylinder charge is evaluated. Two approaches for injector installations are investigated in this study. For the first approach, the injector is placed in the engine’s head for direct injection of gaseous fuel into the combustion chamber near the exhaust port closing timing. Many different injector positions and angles are simulated. Technique of splitting fuel plume via flow splitter also being studied to understand the improvement, in which can be done.
