Abstract:This study tries to optimize the heat release rate of a diesel injector that is injecting into a constant volume combustion chamber. This optimization is performed via spray scaling through Reynolds Averaged Navier-stokes simulations (RANS). The spray-A (diesel spray from Engine Combustion Network) has been used as a reference for validation of the simulations. To scale the diesel jet, the injected mass and cross-sectional area of the injector are varied with similar scaling factor. It was found that using a l… Show more
