Abstract

A new method to solve the cold-start emission problem for gasoline direct injection engine by combining the special shape of piston crown with the compound fuel supply system is studied. With the CFD numerical simulation, the influence of this method on the air flow and the air-fuel mixture formation in cylinder of Gasoline Direct Injection engine under the cold-start conditions is analyzed. The result indicates that, by using the special shape of piston crown to guide the air flow reasonably and combining with the compound fuel supply system, the new method can optimize the formation and distribution of air flow in cylinder under the cold-start conditions, promote the fuel mixing with air, improve the distribution of air-fuel ratio and then reduce the HC emissions.
