The ion current signals of normal combustion and three kinds of typical misfire conditions were obtained with ion current method from a methanol engine refitted by a four-cylinder diesel engine
where the spark plug was served as a sensor. A comparative analysis of shapes was carried out between the ion current signals obtained under normal and abnormal combustion conditions. Analyzing their similarities and differences
the characteristic values of the ion current signals under three kinds of typical misfire conditions were given. The misfire criterion of methanol engine was established according to the peak value and the timing of the peak value of ion current. The ion current curve contains only front flame and post flame under normal condition. When misfire occurs under different operating conditions
the shape of the ion current becomes quite different. The ion current curve possesses a number of peaks as interrupted flame occurs; the ion current just has one peak as fuel is not supplied; for part-combustion
the ion current curve possesses two peaks at the front and post zones. Thus a misfire evaluation criterion is established according to the peak value of post-flame current and appearance of the peaks.
