Allowing for the unique structure of opposed piston opposed cylinder(OPOC)diesel engine
a 3D simulation model of a typical OPOC diesel engine was established with ANSYS Fluent software to investigate the influence of intake port structure on the scavenging process. The simulation model mainly includes intake and exhaust ports
inlet
outlet
and cylinder between the opposed pistons. The simulation shows that with the increase of port height-ratio of swirl row from 0.37 to 0.63
the area of intake port decreases leading to reduced intake air. As a result
the scavenging efficiency decreases. When the port height-ratio of swirl row reaches 0.5
swirl ratio and actual air input of cylinder increases with the port tangential angle of swirl row raising from 8° to 40° and achieve the maximum at 34° tangential angle
which is an ideal scavenging process for this OPOC engine. This result provides a reference for the further research on power performance
fuel economy
and exhaust for the OPOC diesel engine.
