“…Apart from engine combustion characteristics and emissions of GTL diesel fuels, some studies have been carried out focusing on the impact of GTL diesel fuels on fuel injection system. Lacey and Stevenson et al evaluated the long-term performance of GTL diesel fuels in advanced common rail fuel injection systems [15]. Tests on engine testing cell, and electrically driven common rail pump hydraulic rig tests showed that the performance of GTL diesel was at least comparable to conventional hydrocarbon fuels and superior in a number of areas, and no deposits were produced on fuel injection system components even under severe operating conditions.…”

Gas-to-liquid (GTL) naphtha can be used as a gasoline blend component, and the challenge of its low octane rating is solved by using ethanol as an octane booster. However, currently there is little knowledge available about the performance of gasolines containing GTL naphtha in spark ignition engines. The objective of this work is to assess full load performance of gasoline fuels containing GTL naphtha in a modern spark ignition engine. In this study, four new gasoline fuels containing up to 23.5 vol.% GTL naphtha, and a standard EN228 gasoline fuel (reference fuel) were tested. These new gasoline fuels all had similar octane rating with that of the standard EN228 gasoline fuel. The experiments were conducted in an AVL single cylinder spark ignition research engine under full load conditions in the engine speed range of 1000-4500 rpm. Two modern engine configurations, a boosted direct injection (DI) and a port fuel injection (PFI), were used. A comprehensive thermodynamic analysis was carried out to correlate experiment data with fuel properties. The results show that, at the full load operating conditions the combustion characteristics and emissions of those gasoline fuels containing GTL naphtha were comparable to those of the standard EN228 gasoline fuel. Volumetric fuel consumption of fuels with high GTL naphtha content was higher due to the need of adding more ethanol to offset the reduced octane rating caused by GTL naphtha. Results also indicate that, compared to the conventional compliant E228 gasoline fuel, lower particulate emissions were observed in gasoline fuels containing up to 15.4 vol.% GTL naphtha.

“…For this reason, added to the test fuel as 1-litre premixes were mixtures of chemical compounds which according to the available results of tests performed at various laboratories have the greatest impact on the formation of various IDID [9,18,20,[26][27][28][29][30][31]. The said chemical compounds comprised the ingredients present in detergent and lubrication additives, corrosion inhibitors, additives increasing the cetane number and the contaminants which make their way into to the fuel.…”

Abstract. The article describes external and internal Common Rail injectors deposits formed in dynamometer engine simulation tests. It discussed not only the key reasons and factors influencing injector deposit formation but also the resulting way of fuel preparation and engine test approaches. The effects of external coking deposit as well as internal deposits two most common form types that is carboxylic soaps and organic amides on deterioration of the fuel injection parameters were assessed. The assessments covered both deposits impacts on quantitative and qualitative changes of the injectors diagnostic parameters and as a result on deterioration of the injector performance. Finally the comparisons between characteristic of dosage of one fuel injector before test and characteristics few injectors after engine tests of simulated deposit formation were made.
