1 INTRODUCTION 1. Background of the study Exhaust emission from automobiles using diesel fuel is one of the factors causing air pollution, particularly in urban areas. Among the research plans to reduce the emission of toxic substances from the diesel engine, many scientists are interested in the use of diesel - LPG dual fuel engine. A lot of developed countries in the world have put finance and efforts into this research. When this method is applied, it will help to solve the two following problems: protecting air environment and taking advantage of available fuel resources in many parts of the world while fossil fuels are gradually running out. In Vietnam, LPG application for internal combustion engines has been interested in many studies, but not really in-depth. The research results only stopped at using LPG fuel for the engine but not interested in optimizing fuel supplying system, combustion and pollutant formation yet. With that situation, calculating and identifying components of exhaust from automobile engines using diesel - LPG dual fuel becomes imperative and incredibly practical. 2.

Chapter I. OVERVIEW OF RESEARCH PROBLEMS 1.1. Overview of environmental pollution caused by automobiles’ emissions 1.1.1. The development of transportation in Vietnam In recent years, along with economic growth, the demand for transportation of people and goods in Vietnam has increased rapidly. This has led to the increase of number of transport vehicles, especially ones using diesel fuel . The increasing number of vehicles while the transportation infrastructure has not developed causes pressure on the environment, especially in urban areas. 1.1.2. Environmental pollution caused by automobiles’ emissions in Vietnam The increasing numbers of Transportation vehicles in undeveloped infrastructure causes traffic jams in big cities. Meanwhile we do not have any effective controlling measures to reduce emissions leading to the alarming rate of air pollution in big cities, especially in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City . 1.2. Production and utilization of LPG 1.2.1. Production of LPG 1.2.1.1. Production of LPG in the world The total supply of LPG in the world reached 198 million tons in 2000 and 239 million tons in 2008. The growth rate of the LPG supply in the world increased 2.4 % / year in 2000-2008. In 2013, the world supply could reach 260 million tons and is expected to reach 291.7 million tons in 2015. 1.2.1.1. Production of LPG in Vietnam Vietnam has about 3,000 billion m3 of gas concentrated mainly in our continental shelf . In 2009, Dinh Co gas processing factory began producing
3 LPG (about 29,000 tons / month) serving for industrial and consumer products. From the second quarter of 2009, the Dung Quat oil filtration factory has officially gone into operation and produced LPG to meet the needs of LPG in the whole country. 1.2.2. The utilization of LPG In the world: The use of LPG in the world focuses on four fields: domestic consumption accounts for nearly 50 % , followed by the chemicals field with 24 % , the use of LPG in industry is at the third rank with total consumption accounting for about 13 % , while transport only ranks the fourth with a total annual consumption of 8.8 % . In Vietnam: Demand for LPG in Vietnam in recent years has increased very quickly. In 2015, the demand for LPG is expected to be about 1.5 million tons and 2 million tons by 2020. However, in our country, LPG is mainly used as fuel; the use of LPG for transportation means is not popular. 1.3. Domestic and foreign studies on emissions of diesel engines and diesel – LPG engines 1.3.1. The research results in the world In the world, there have been many studies in this field , as typical : Works of BEROUN and MARTINS , Z.H Zhang , C.S. Cheung , T.L. Chan and C.D. Yao , Bogdan Cornel BENEA and Adrian Ovidiu SOICA , Dong Jian , Gao Xiaohong , Li Gesheng and Zhang Xintang , Thomas Renald C.Ja and Somasundaram P , MP Poonia. However, those studies focused mainly on engines mounted on passenger cars, large trucks and specialized vehicles. The number of researches using diesel - LPG engines fitted on small cars is very limited. 1.3.2. The research results in the country In Vietnam, there have been some studies on the engines using diesel - LPG dual fuel such as the studies of Bui Van Ga , Pham Minh Tuan , Le Anh Tuan , Pham Huu Tuyen , Mai Son Hai , Tran Thanh Hai Tung , Le Minh Xuan and Vu An. The initial results showed that automobiles using diesel – LPG dual fuel helpes to reduce the harmful emissions, especially its ability to reduce PM emissions on some engines. However, there have not been any completed studies of diesel - LPG engine fitted on small cars. 1.4. Conclusion of Chapter I Among many research plans to reduce the emission of toxic substances from the diesel engine, the scientiests are very interested in the use of diesel - LPG dual fuel engine . Many developed countries in the world have put their finance and efforts into this research.

The research results only stopped at using LPG fuel for the engine but not interested in optimizing fuel supplying system, combustion and pollutant formation yet. Chapter II. THEORETICAL BASIS OF CALCUALTING COMPONENTS OF EXHAUST EMISSION FROM DIESEL AND DIESEL – LPG ENGINES 2.1. Mixture of diesel – LPG dual fuel Based on the advantages and disadvantages of these methods and to meet the research objectives, the study chose to inject the LPG into charging pipe to survey and empiric.

Combustion process in diesel engines Combustion process in diesel engines can be divided into 4 phases: Late Fire, rapid fire, main fire ( slow fire ) and dropped fire . 2.2.2. Combustion process in diesel – LPG dual fuel engines Combustion process in diesel – LPG dual fuel engines is rather complicated because of the combination of combustion in gasoline engines and diesel engines. Besides late fire and dropped fire as the diesel fuel engine, the combustion process can be divided into 3 main phases. - Phase 1: The rapid fire with diesel fuel and a small portion of fuel gas. - Phase 2: The rapid fire with most of LPG fuel and a portion of diesel fuel. - Phase 3: The diffusion fire of diesel and remaining gas. 275 Speed of calorific (J/CA) 225 2 100 % diesel 175 125 75 25 1 5 -25 275 4 Speed of calorific (J/CA) 225 175 2 75, 9 diesel + 24, 1 % 125 75 3 25 1 5 -25 340 360 380 400 420 Crank’s angle of rotation(Degree) Figure 2.8. Calorific process in diesel – LPG engine 2.2.3. Modeling basic of producing the mix and combustion in Diesel - LPG dual fuel engine Modeling basic of producing the mix and combustion are based on the following rules:
6 - The first thermodynamics equation - Solvent mixture model is described by the components forming the mixture including diesel fuel, LPG (C3H8, C4H10), O2, N2, CO2, H2O, CO, and H2 - Heat transfer model is calculated according to the Woschni formula 1978. - Use Vibe 2 zone fire model, the reactions of Zeldovich chain with speed coefficient to calculate the amount of NOx, the reactions according to A. Onorati to calculate CO, Hiroyasu model to calculate soot emissions in the exhaust of diesel engines and diesel- LPG engines. 2.3. The exhaust components Toxic products of combustion in diesel engines and diesel - LPG engines included the following materials: HC, NOx, SO2, and dust particles (PM). 2.4. Calculation base of emission component in diesel engines and diesel – LPG engines 2.4.1. Calculating the NOx emission The formation of NOx is calculated based on parameters such as engine speed, fuel components, pressure, temperature, air intake coefficient λ, volume and mass, burning time as well as areas of burning. 2.4.2. Calculating the CO emission CO is combustion product lack of O2, mainly produced from the incompleted combustion. Therefore, CO can be calculated based on the responses according to A. Onorati: CO + OH ↔ CO2 + H; CO2 + O ↔ CO + O2. 2.4.3. Calculating the HC emission For diesel engines, HC component generated in the process of working is negligible, so most of the research on exhaust of diesel engine has not mentioned the calculation of this component. 2.4.4. Calculating the soot emission (Soot) Soot emission is calculated according Hiroyasu model. In this model , the change of the soot volume is calculatedvia the formula: dms dms,f dms,ox   (2.36) dt dt dt 2.5. Conclusion of Chapter II In the plans of using of diesel – LPG dual fuel engine, the plan to
7 inject LPG into charging pipe of the original diesel engine was selected as the research plan. This plan has several advantages such as compact structure, simple installation, no improvement to the original diesel engine. The study used Vibe 2 zone fire model, the reactions of Zeldovich chain with speed coefficient to calculate the amount of NOx, the reactions according to A. Onorati to calculate CO, Hiroyasu model to calculate emissions of soot in the exhaust of diesel engines and diesel- LPG engines. Chapter III. DEVELOPING MODEL TO IDENTIFYING COMPONENTS OF EXHAUST FROM DIESEL ENGINE AND DIESEL – LPG ENGINE 3.1. AVL BOOST software Based on the objectives and content of the study, the researcher chose to calculate the emission of diesel engine by the simulation software. With the available features and tools, AVL - BOOST can develop the model and calculate the exhaust components of the engine. 3.2. Application of AVL - BOOST software in calculating exhaust components of the FAWDE - 4DX23 engine 3.2.1. The basic parameters of FAWDE - 4DX23 engine FAWDE - 4DX23 - 110 engine is the turbocharged diesel engine made in China. This engine is used on passenger cars and small and medium trucks. Rated power at 2800 rev / min is 81 KW, max torque at 1800 rev / min is 320 Nm. 3.2.2. Diesel fuel and LPG fuel 3.2.2.1. Diesel fuel The main chemical composition of diesel fuel are hydrocarbon compounds, general formula is CnH2n+2. 3.2.2.2. Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) The chemical composition of LPG is mainly paraffinic hydrocarbon types, general formula is: CnH2n+2 such as : Propane (C3H8), Butane (C4H10), Pentane (C5H12)… In addition, in LPG there are Ethane (C2H6), Ethylen (C2H4), Butadiene (C4H4) but they account for a very small percentage. 3.2.3. Developing the diesel model on AVL - BOOST Based on the structure of motor in fact, the elements defined in AVL - BOOST and the specifications of the engine, FAWDE 4DX23 - 110 - engine model can be built as in Figure 3.2. The function name of the elements on the simulation model are presented in Table 3.4 .
8 Figure 3.2 The simulation model of FAWDE- 4DX23-110 engine on AVL-BOOST After developing the model, the input data was entered basing on the specifications of the engine, then run the program and export the results. 3.2.4. Verifying the accuracy of the model The accuracy of the model was assessed by comparing the results such as power, torque between the experimental results (the manufacturer has tested and recorded in catalog before taking out the factory) with simulation results. The simulation results showed that the highest deviation range of the engine capacity was 6.48 % at the speed 1400 vg/ph and the lowest is 1.13 %, this deviation range is acceptable. 3.2.5. Developing diesel - LPG engine model on AVL - BOOST. The basic difference between combustion model in diesel – LPG engine and diesel engine is the fuel component for the cycle. However, various factors such as late combustion characteristics, heat exchange coefficient , combustion speed ... when replacing LPG into diesel fuel has been defined by the definition the nature of the fuel using (although the general formula for the calculation is the same). Besides the basic parameters such as low calorific value, A / F ratio, fuel is defined through the thermodynamic parameters (heat capacity, enthalpy, entropy ...) for the process of calculating and conversion chemical energy into calorific energy. The developed model will be verified experimentally (it will be conducted in the next part of this study). If simulation results are much different from empirical results, it can be adjusted the parameter a, m of Vibe 2 zone fire model when building the model. To build the diesel – LPG engine model on AVL - BOOST, it must be
9 based on the layout of LPG supply system into diesel engine and the way to mix them. According to the selected plan, LPG will be injected into the engine's charging pipe. Thus on the model of diesel – LPG engine , apart from the basic elements such as original diesel engine model will have more injector ( I1 ) to simulate the process of providing LPG . I1 Figure 3.5.

Computational simulation results The simulation results of exhaust components of diesel engine and diesel - LPG engine when running under ECE R49 cycle are showed in the figure (3.7), (3.8), (3.9) and Table 3.8. The simulation results in Figure 3.7 above shows that , when running according to ECE R49 test cycle ,there is an increase of CO , the average increase in LPG mode replaced 10 % of diesel by 77.42 % and in LPG mode replace 20 % diesel by 151.8 % compared with using 100 % diesel .

Surveying the effect of some structural parameters on the emission of diesel- LPG engine by simulation method 3.3.1. Effect of early spray on the emission of diesel- LPG engine Based on engine model built, the study changed the time for spraying diesel and considering its effect on the emission components in the LPG mode replacing 20 % of diesel with 100 % loading of the engine is 1800 rev / min. According to the original engine, the timing of the fuel injection of nozzle will be early 90, and stared at 3510 at crankshaft rotation .To change this value into two directions, increasing and decreasing spraying angles and investigating its effect to the engine's emission . Emission result on Figure 3.10 and 3.11 shows that, while reducing early, the NOx reduced, CO and soot increased. This phenomenon is due to the time of most intense burning fuel in the engine cylinder is pushed backward , while the piston has gone down over the course of expansion , the volume of the combustion chamber increased leading to the temperature and the pressure decreased effecting on the emission
