  ABSTRACT

  Knowledge of air flow in induction port and air motion within the cylinder of High-speed
  direct – injection diesel engine is of primary importance as it influences fuel – air mixing,
  combustion and hence fuel economy. To achieve the required optimized swirl with minimum
  restriction to flow, it is necessary to study the characteristics of inlet ports. Two common
  induction port shapes used are tangential/directed port and helical port. The methods often
  used for measuring swirl and other air motion features include steady flow test rig with AVL
  paddle wheel anemometer.

  Keywords : Rig Swirl, AVL paddle anemometer.

  I. INTRODUCTION

         The importance of proper interaction of air swirl and fuel sprays has been emphasized
  by a number of researchers. Greaves et aL10 report high speed diesel engine measurements
  where the engine speeds, injection rate and swirl ration were varied. Exhaust smoke levels
  were taken to measure combustion performance i.e. fuel air mixing. They found for high
  engine speeds, an optimum value of swirl ratio exists below or above which an increase in
  smoke results, for most fuel injection rates.

The swirl ratio and other characteristics of inlet port system are important design parameters.
It has, therefore been made the subject of experimental study in the present work. Inlet port
shape may be monitored through the development phase by making a series of silicone rubber
casting of the port model. Epoxy resin cores could then be made from the developed flow box
shape. Similarly, a thermo plastic vinyl resin could be used to make impression of ports from
cast or existing cylinder heads. These shapes are then tested on flow test rigs to obtain the
configuration with optimum shape for giving optimum swirl ration and mean flow
coefficient.
Traditionally four measuring techniques have been employed for development of port shapes
             ly
namely AVL paddle wheel an anemometer, Ricardo impulse swirl meter, Hot wire
anemometer and Laser Doppler anemometer. Of these, the first two are employed for
industrial development and the last two for research analysis.

In view of the above, the following has been attempted in this report:
     - Fabrication of steady flow rigs to be used for AVL.
     - Experiment set up for measuring the cylinder charge rotation and flow pattern by
         AVL paddle wheel anemometer at different valve lifts.

II. ENGINE AIR SWIRL AVL PADDLE WHEEL ANENOMETER MEASUREMENT
TECHNIQUE

        The development of port design was done on a steady flow rig using vane
anemometer by Ma for the study of effect of cylinder charge motion on combustion. The
same method was also used by Rao14 for the measurement of swirl and calculation of
coefficient of flow in diesel engine.
For measuring the rotation of the cylinder charge, a paddle-wheel anemometer was developed
                                                     paddle wheel
and the method of measurement standardized by AVL using the steady flow test. The
 nd
principle is shown in figure 2.1.

   For the measurement of swirl generating capacity of inlet ports, the air is sucked in by a
test bed blower through the port, over the valve with adjustable lift, the cylinder liner, the
large sized tank and finally a connected flow meter. The pressure drop ∆p between the
atmosphere and the tank in this case equals the pressure loss in inlet port and the inlet valve,
as there is no significant pressure loss in the cylinder liner. The rotation of the air sucked into
the cylinder liner is measured by the paddle wheel speed which is sensed by pulse pick up
and is transmitted into an electronic counter. With a given shape of the inlet port having a
valve of a particular seat angle and kept at a given position to the cylinder liner, a particular
steady flow pattern results for a given valve lift. This pattern only depends on the Reynolds
number, the intake conditions and the pressure ratio Pz/Po between cylinder (tank) and the
atmosphere. For this range of Reynolds number, intake conditions and Pz/Po of interest in the
actual engine flow conditions, this dependence is generally small and may be neglected. For
this reason, the pattern of air flowing into the cylinder can be regarded as function of intake
port parameters, cylinder liner configuration, their location to one another and the valve lift.
This flow pattern may be characterized by the following parameters:

ṁ      -       the mass flow rate of air.
nD     -       the speed of paddle wheel of given dimensions, mounted in a fixed distance
               from the cylinder heads.
Vu      -      the mean velocity of the particles of the Air flowing through the circle of
               diameter Dm drawn by the centre of the paddle in Circumference direction,
               where the back Lash of the paddle wheel is neglected.
Va     -       the mean air velocity in direction of Cylinder axis.
Ac     -       sectional area of cylinder.
ρ      -       density of air at experimental conditions.
Where Vu and Va can be calculated as:
       Vu = Π.Dm.nD/60
&      Va = ṁ/ρ.Ac

The flow pattern may also be characterized by a single parameter,

δ      -     The inclination angle of the helical line of diameter Dm where the particles of
              air move through the cylinder liner.
Which can be calculated as:

Cotδ = Vu/Va = (Π.Dm. nD/60) x ρ.Ac/ṁ
nD, ṁ, ρ are experimental observations.
Dm & Ac are measureable dimensions.
If the steady flow test with this given device is performed at various valve lifts, the flow
pattern in the cylinder liner or respectively its characteristic quantities, do not give any
information about the connection between the rotation of the cylinder charge and the engine
speed, but it forms the basis of an explanation. The method of representation of flow patterns
as swirl ratio nD/n specified by AVL gives a much better appreciation. Here, the anemometer

speed nD measured by steady flow test is divided by engine speed n, which is obtained by equating the
mean axial flow velocity Va with the mean piston speed Vm = S.n/30. Hence,
nD/n = (nD/ṁ) x (ρ.Ac.S/30)
For a given port and engine design and the defined valve of specific weight ρ, the swirl ratio is a
function of the quantity nD/ṁ which characterizes the flow pattern.
In conclusion it could be stated that the parameters which are measured in AVL steady flow test
methods are paddle wheel speed nD, valve lift L, pressure drop ∆p, differential pressure across the
flow meter and intake conditions Po & To.
The calculated quantities include, axial velocity Va, circumference velocity Vu, helix angle δ, mass
flow rate ṁ, flow coefficient Cf and AVL swirl ratio. Apart from the measured parameters other
inputs include, paddle wheel diameter, cylinder bore, engine speed, density of air at intake conditions.

III. EXPERIMENTAL WORK
         Paddle wheel was fabricated out of alloy steel strip as per details indicated in Fig 3.1 and
suggested by AVL. The dimensions were incorporated according to inner diameter of cylinder linear.
The length of paddle wheel was kept as 0.917 mm whereas height of paddle wheel was 0.167mm. The
thickness of vanes was keep 1.5mm as recommended by AVL. The anemometer vanes were mounted
on the SKF ball bearings. AVL had recommended that these bearing have to be used dry and without
lubrication and hence calibration measurements have to be carried out every fifth day. The main
components of the test rig include:
     1.   Cylinder head.
     2.   Cylinder linear.
     3.   Paddle wheel anemometer.
     4.   Pulse pick up.
     5.   Electronic Counter.
     6.   A large control volume (Tank).
     7.   Flow meter.
     8.   Motor driven blower.

To test the inlet port at various valve lifts, the following steps were followed:

i. The valve was set at 1mm valve opening by giving a rotation to metric screw and noting the reading
on dial gauge mounted upon the valve stem.
ii. Blower was started with control valve partially opened.
iii. The differential pressure across the tank was observed in the U-tube water manometer. It was
monitored to 25.4 cm water gauge by operating the control valve.
iv. The final readings were taken after waiting for 15 minutes so that the flow could be maintained
steady and when the readings got stabilized. The various reading were noted, namely, lift (L) in mm,
discharge (Q) in l/sec., mass flow rate (m) in g/sec. and paddle wheel speed (nD) in rpm.
    The readings were taken at each interval of valve lift, starting from 1mm to 10 mm following the
same procedure.
    Procedure for AVL test calculations
For each valve lift, the important parameters were calculated using a computer program in FORTRAN-
77. The simplified flow diagram for the calculation procedure is given in Fig. 3.2

To test the inlet port, air was blown by blower through flow meter and through the port and
valve into the cylinder liner. The following steps were followed;
1. The valve was set at 1mm lift by giving a rotation to metric screw and noting the reading in
dial gauge mounted upon the valve stem.
2. Blower was started with control valve partially opened.
3. The absolute pressure at downstream of flow meter was observed in mass flow computer. It
was monitored to atmospheric pressure plus 254 mm of water pressure by operating the
                                                                      pressure

                                                                  m.,
reading) where calibration factor is given as 107.87.The reading were taken at each interval of
valve lift, start in from 1 mm to 10 mm following the same procedure.

IV. RESULT & DISCUSSION

       The basis of the study is a characterization of the air motion using steady flow rigs
and application of empirical models to predict the in-cylinder conditions which affect engine
                                                   in                       ich

 AVL TEST RESULTS

          AVL tests were performed with suction configuration i.e. air flow was induced through inlet
 port without manifold by sucking the air through drum as already shown in fig 3.1
          Tests were conducted separately for three ports A, B & C and the results are tabulated in tables
 4.1-4.3. These tables give the measured values, i.e. valve lift, discharge, mass flow rate and paddle
 wheel speed, as also the calculated values i.e. lift to dia ratio for valves, circumferential velocity, axial
 velocity, helix angle, AVL swirl ratio and flow coefficients. These results have been further plotted
 with non-dimensional lift/diameter ratio for inlet valve as the basis. Figs. 4.2-4.9 show the comparison
 of the flow and swirl characteristics of the three ports i.e., A, B and C.

Table: 4.3 AVL Test Results of Engine C having Mean Flow Coefficient 0.3121 & Gulp factor 0.3420.

        Figs. 4.2 and 4.3 show the same trend for discharge (L/S) and mass flow rate (g/s)
versus non-dimensional lift (L/D) ratio. It may be noted that all these ports allow the flow
from 10 l/s to 40 l/s for the L/D ratio ranging from 0.024 to 0.244. For initial half range of
L/D ratio, the flow increases linearly and for the remaining half the increase is moderate and
then it becomes asymptotic. It is because at the higher lifts, the resistance offered by the ports
is more and skin friction comes into play with the flow. Further, it may be noted that the port
B offers less resistance for low lifts and more resistance at higher lifts.

                          Figure: 4.3 AVL Mass Flow Rate versus Lift

         Figs 4.4 and 4.5 show the same trend of variation of paddle wheel speed (rpm) and
circumferential velocity (mm/sec). Port C produce more swirl (2479 rpm) at maximum valve lift as
compared to port B (2138 rpm) and Port a (1894 rpm) it is because helical port develops swirl inside
the port, producing a spiral outflow from the valve. Whereas ports B and A develop swirl by producing
a directional airflow which is forced to rotate by impingement on the cylinder wall. Further it may be
noted that paddle wheel anemometer is less sensitive to detect the swirl at low lifts up to 4mm. It is
because the mode of operation of paddle wheel is to impose a circumferential velocity in terms of
10.384 m/sec whereas port B produces 8.958 m/sec and port A 7.933 m/sec respectively.
Circumferential velocities determine the paddle wheel speed.

         Fig 4.6 shows the variation of axial flow velocity versus L/D ratio. The axial flow
velocity has the same trend as the mass flow rate. It varies from 1 m/sec to 4.5 m/sec for L/D
ratio range from 0.024 to 0.244. Axial flow velocity determines the mass flow rate. Thus for
the same mass flow rate, different swirl speeds could be generated as seen above. However,
excessive emphasis on increase in one adversely affects the other especially at higher valve
lifts and maximum flow conditions.




                     Figure: 4.6 AVL Axial Flow Velocity versus Lift

        Fig. 4.7 shows the variation of helix angle (degrees) versus L/D ratio. Helix angle is
the inclination of helical line of Dm where particles of air move through the cylinder liner. It
may be noted that port C gives minimum range of helix angles over valve lift as compared to
port B & A. It can be reasoned out that helical port produces a spiral out flow from valve, thus
contributing more circumferential velocity component than axial component and hence
smaller helix angle. Helix angle is minimum at higher lifts. Port C has a helix angle of the
value 23.91°, port B gives 26.27° and ports a, 29.67° at the maximum valve lift of 10 mm.




                         Figure: 4.7 AVL Helix Angle versus Lift

        Fig. 4.8 illustrates the variation of AVL Swirl ratio versus L/D ratio. It is the ratio of
paddle wheel speed to engine speed. It increases as the valve lift is increased. It ranges from
0.1 to 2.0 corresponding to the valve lift of 1 mm to 10 mm for the port C, which has more
value as compared to other two for the same value of L/D ratio.

                         Figure: 4.8 AVL Swirl Ratio Versus Lift

        Fig 4.9 shows the variation of flow coefficient versus L/D ratio. All the three ports
show the same trend of variation of flow coefficient. Its value ranges from 0.1 to 0.45
corresponding to the lift of 1 mm to 10 mm. These values remain same for geometrically
similar ports.




                      Figure: 4.9 AVL Flow Coefficients versus Lift

Using this data the calculated quantities indicated are discharge coefficient, flow coefficient,
flow coefficient based on lift, non-dimensional rig swirl, Reynolds nos., coefficient of
performance, swirl angle, swirl ratio and gulp factor.

V. CONCLUSION

        The objective set forth for present work include familiarization of flow characteristics
of the port shapes mentioned above while using AVL and therefore getting an insight into
their relative merits and demerits. Some of the conclusions obtained from above study are as
follows:
        It could be concluded from the above studies, that the port A which is a tangential port
has the lowest swirl speed at the maximum valve lift. As this swirl speed further affects the
compression swirl, it could be stated that the fuel air mixing will be at a slower rate, thereby
giving larger ignition delays and lower rate of combustion resulting in a moderate speed. It is
however possible to improve upon the performance with this port, in case squish is used
properly along with the swirl.

        Port B is also tangential port but with directed lip. Hence, it produces a higher swirl
speed at a maximum valve lift. Thus, it could be used effectively for an engine which is
optimized to run at a given speed and power. Port B has higher flow coefficients at low lifts.
Helical port C generates more swirls as compared to tangential or directed port. Swirl speed is
more (2479 rpm, nD/n =2.08) for helical port as compared to directed (2138 rpm, nD/n = 1.87)
and tangential (1894 rpm, nD/n = 1.62) port corresponding to the maximum lift of 10 mm.
Thus, modifying tangential port to directed port by providing a lip, a swirl speed can be
increased by 12.8% and further modifying this directed port to semi-helical port, it could be
increased to 30.8%.

VI. SCOPE FOR FURTHER WORK

        1.      A three dimensional computer simulation of flow
Field in inlet ports investigated in the present work can be formulated.

       2.     This data could be used to predicting compression
Swirl and could further connected by computer simulation of diesel engine to the engine
performance. Thus by predicting the effect of swirl related parameters on the engine
performance, fuel – economy and pollutant formation.

To achieve the required optimized swirl with minimum restriction to flow, it is necessary to study the characteristics of inlet ports. Two common induction port shapes used are tangential/directed port and helical port. The methods often used for measuring swirl and other air motion features include steady flow test rig with AVL paddle wheel anemometer. Keywords : Rig Swirl, AVL paddle anemometer. I. INTRODUCTION The importance of proper interaction of air swirl and fuel sprays has been emphasized by a number of researchers. Greaves et aL10 report high speed diesel engine measurements where the engine speeds, injection rate and swirl ration were varied. Exhaust smoke levels were taken to measure combustion performance i.e. fuel air mixing. They found for high engine speeds, an optimum value of swirl ratio exists below or above which an increase in smoke results, for most fuel injection rates. 79
  • 2. International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – Technology 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 4, Issue 1, January - February (2013) © IAEME The swirl ratio and other characteristics of inlet port system are important design parameters. It has, therefore been made the subject of experimental study in the present work. Inlet port shape may be monitored through the development phase by making a series of silicone rubber casting of the port model. Epoxy resin cores could then be made from the developed flow box shape. Similarly, a thermo plastic vinyl resin could be used to make impression of ports from cast or existing cylinder heads. These shapes are then tested on flow test rigs to obtain the configuration with optimum shape for giving optimum swirl ration and mean flow coefficient. Traditionally four measuring techniques have been employed for development of port shapes ly namely AVL paddle wheel an anemometer, Ricardo impulse swirl meter, Hot wire anemometer and Laser Doppler anemometer. Of these, the first two are employed for industrial development and the last two for research analysis. ment In view of the above, the following has been attempted in this report: - Fabrication of steady flow rigs to be used for AVL. - Experiment set up for measuring the cylinder charge rotation and flow pattern by AVL paddle wheel anemometer at different valve lifts. dle - Testing of three inlet ports namely (1) tangential port (2) Directed port (3) Semi – helical port (a modified form of the second for higher swirl and better flow characteristics) of the available engines of the same power range. th - Translation of inlet port cores by Plastering. II. ENGINE AIR SWIRL AVL PADDLE WHEEL ANENOMETER MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUE The development of port design was done on a steady flow rig using vane anemometer by Ma for the study of effect of cylinder charge motion on combustion. The same method was also used by Rao14 for the measurement of swirl and calculation of coefficient of flow in diesel engine. For measuring the rotation of the cylinder charge, a paddle-wheel anemometer was developed paddle wheel and the method of measurement standardized by AVL using the steady flow test. The nd principle is shown in figure 2.1. Figure: 2.1 AVL Rotational Swirl Measuring Principle 80
  • 3. International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 4, Issue 1, January - February (2013) © IAEME For the measurement of swirl generating capacity of inlet ports, the air is sucked in by a test bed blower through the port, over the valve with adjustable lift, the cylinder liner, the large sized tank and finally a connected flow meter. The pressure drop ∆p between the atmosphere and the tank in this case equals the pressure loss in inlet port and the inlet valve, as there is no significant pressure loss in the cylinder liner. The rotation of the air sucked into the cylinder liner is measured by the paddle wheel speed which is sensed by pulse pick up and is transmitted into an electronic counter. With a given shape of the inlet port having a valve of a particular seat angle and kept at a given position to the cylinder liner, a particular steady flow pattern results for a given valve lift. This pattern only depends on the Reynolds number, the intake conditions and the pressure ratio Pz/Po between cylinder (tank) and the atmosphere. For this range of Reynolds number, intake conditions and Pz/Po of interest in the actual engine flow conditions, this dependence is generally small and may be neglected. For this reason, the pattern of air flowing into the cylinder can be regarded as function of intake port parameters, cylinder liner configuration, their location to one another and the valve lift. This flow pattern may be characterized by the following parameters: ṁ - the mass flow rate of air. nD - the speed of paddle wheel of given dimensions, mounted in a fixed distance from the cylinder heads. Vu - the mean velocity of the particles of the Air flowing through the circle of diameter Dm drawn by the centre of the paddle in Circumference direction, where the back Lash of the paddle wheel is neglected. Va - the mean air velocity in direction of Cylinder axis. Ac - sectional area of cylinder. ρ - density of air at experimental conditions. Where Vu and Va can be calculated as: Vu = Π.Dm.nD/60 & Va = ṁ/ρ.Ac The flow pattern may also be characterized by a single parameter, δ - The inclination angle of the helical line of diameter Dm where the particles of air move through the cylinder liner. Which can be calculated as: Cotδ = Vu/Va = (Π.Dm. nD/60) x ρ.Ac/ṁ nD, ṁ, ρ are experimental observations. Dm & Ac are measureable dimensions. If the steady flow test with this given device is performed at various valve lifts, the flow pattern in the cylinder liner or respectively its characteristic quantities, do not give any information about the connection between the rotation of the cylinder charge and the engine speed, but it forms the basis of an explanation. The method of representation of flow patterns as swirl ratio nD/n specified by AVL gives a much better appreciation. Here, the anemometer 81

Hence, nD/n = (nD/ṁ) x (ρ.Ac.S/30) For a given port and engine design and the defined valve of specific weight ρ, the swirl ratio is a function of the quantity nD/ṁ which characterizes the flow pattern. In conclusion it could be stated that the parameters which are measured in AVL steady flow test methods are paddle wheel speed nD, valve lift L, pressure drop ∆p, differential pressure across the flow meter and intake conditions Po & To. The calculated quantities include, axial velocity Va, circumference velocity Vu, helix angle δ, mass flow rate ṁ, flow coefficient Cf and AVL swirl ratio. Apart from the measured parameters other inputs include, paddle wheel diameter, cylinder bore, engine speed, density of air at intake conditions. III. EXPERIMENTAL WORK Paddle wheel was fabricated out of alloy steel strip as per details indicated in Fig 3.1 and suggested by AVL. The dimensions were incorporated according to inner diameter of cylinder linear. The length of paddle wheel was kept as 0.917 mm whereas height of paddle wheel was 0.167mm. The thickness of vanes was keep 1.5mm as recommended by AVL. The anemometer vanes were mounted on the SKF ball bearings. AVL had recommended that these bearing have to be used dry and without lubrication and hence calibration measurements have to be carried out every fifth day. The main components of the test rig include: 1. Cylinder head. 2. Cylinder linear. 3. Paddle wheel anemometer. 4. Pulse pick up. 5. Electronic Counter. 6. A large control volume (Tank). 7. Flow meter. 8. Motor driven blower. Figure: 3.1 Experimental Set up for AVL Swirl Measurement 82

The valve was set at 1mm valve opening by giving a rotation to metric screw and noting the reading on dial gauge mounted upon the valve stem. ii. Blower was started with control valve partially opened. iii. The differential pressure across the tank was observed in the U-tube water manometer. It was monitored to 25.4 cm water gauge by operating the control valve. iv. The final readings were taken after waiting for 15 minutes so that the flow could be maintained steady and when the readings got stabilized. The various reading were noted, namely, lift (L) in mm, discharge (Q) in l/sec., mass flow rate (m) in g/sec. and paddle wheel speed (nD) in rpm. The readings were taken at each interval of valve lift, starting from 1mm to 10 mm following the same procedure. Procedure for AVL test calculations For each valve lift, the important parameters were calculated using a computer program in FORTRAN- 77. The simplified flow diagram for the calculation procedure is given in Fig. 3.2 Figure: 3.2 Flow chart for AVL Calculation Essentially the following parameters are calculated: Circumferential Velocity.

Figs. 4.2 and 4.3 show the same trend for discharge (L/S) and mass flow rate (g/s) versus non-dimensional lift (L/D) ratio. It may be noted that all these ports allow the flow from 10 l/s to 40 l/s for the L/D ratio ranging from 0.024 to 0.244. For initial half range of L/D ratio, the flow increases linearly and for the remaining half the increase is moderate and then it becomes asymptotic. It is because at the higher lifts, the resistance offered by the ports is more and skin friction comes into play with the flow. Further, it may be noted that the port B offers less resistance for low lifts and more resistance at higher lifts. Figure 4.2 AVL Discharge Versus Lift 86

Port C produce more swirl (2479 rpm) at maximum valve lift as compared to port B (2138 rpm) and Port a (1894 rpm) it is because helical port develops swirl inside the port, producing a spiral outflow from the valve. Whereas ports B and A develop swirl by producing a directional airflow which is forced to rotate by impingement on the cylinder wall. Further it may be noted that paddle wheel anemometer is less sensitive to detect the swirl at low lifts up to 4mm. It is because the mode of operation of paddle wheel is to impose a circumferential velocity in terms of 10.384 m/sec whereas port B produces 8.958 m/sec and port A 7.933 m/sec respectively. Circumferential velocities determine the paddle wheel speed. Figure: 4.4 AVL Paddle Wheel RPM versus Lift Figure: 4.5 AVL Circumferential Velocity versus Lift 87

International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 4, Issue 1, January - February (2013) © IAEME Fig 4.6 shows the variation of axial flow velocity versus L/D ratio. The axial flow velocity has the same trend as the mass flow rate. It varies from 1 m/sec to 4.5 m/sec for L/D ratio range from 0.024 to 0.244. Axial flow velocity determines the mass flow rate. Thus for the same mass flow rate, different swirl speeds could be generated as seen above. However, excessive emphasis on increase in one adversely affects the other especially at higher valve lifts and maximum flow conditions. Figure: 4.6 AVL Axial Flow Velocity versus Lift Fig. 4.7 shows the variation of helix angle (degrees) versus L/D ratio. Helix angle is the inclination of helical line of Dm where particles of air move through the cylinder liner. It may be noted that port C gives minimum range of helix angles over valve lift as compared to port B & A. It can be reasoned out that helical port produces a spiral out flow from valve, thus contributing more circumferential velocity component than axial component and hence smaller helix angle. Helix angle is minimum at higher lifts. Port C has a helix angle of the value 23.91°, port B gives 26.27° and ports a, 29.67° at the maximum valve lift of 10 mm. Figure: 4.7 AVL Helix Angle versus Lift Fig. 4.8 illustrates the variation of AVL Swirl ratio versus L/D ratio. It is the ratio of paddle wheel speed to engine speed. It increases as the valve lift is increased. It ranges from 0.1 to 2.0 corresponding to the valve lift of 1 mm to 10 mm for the port C, which has more value as compared to other two for the same value of L/D ratio. 88

All the three ports show the same trend of variation of flow coefficient. Its value ranges from 0.1 to 0.45 corresponding to the lift of 1 mm to 10 mm. These values remain same for geometrically similar ports. Figure: 4.9 AVL Flow Coefficients versus Lift Using this data the calculated quantities indicated are discharge coefficient, flow coefficient, flow coefficient based on lift, non-dimensional rig swirl, Reynolds nos., coefficient of performance, swirl angle, swirl ratio and gulp factor. V. CONCLUSION The objective set forth for present work include familiarization of flow characteristics of the port shapes mentioned above while using AVL and therefore getting an insight into their relative merits and demerits. Some of the conclusions obtained from above study are as follows: It could be concluded from the above studies, that the port A which is a tangential port has the lowest swirl speed at the maximum valve lift. As this swirl speed further affects the compression swirl, it could be stated that the fuel air mixing will be at a slower rate, thereby giving larger ignition delays and lower rate of combustion resulting in a moderate speed. It is however possible to improve upon the performance with this port, in case squish is used properly along with the swirl. 89

International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), ISSN 0976 – 6340(Print), ISSN 0976 – 6359(Online) Volume 4, Issue 1, January - February (2013) © IAEME Port B is also tangential port but with directed lip. Hence, it produces a higher swirl speed at a maximum valve lift. Thus, it could be used effectively for an engine which is optimized to run at a given speed and power. Port B has higher flow coefficients at low lifts. Helical port C generates more swirls as compared to tangential or directed port. Swirl speed is more (2479 rpm, nD/n =2.08) for helical port as compared to directed (2138 rpm, nD/n = 1.87) and tangential (1894 rpm, nD/n = 1.62) port corresponding to the maximum lift of 10 mm. Thus, modifying tangential port to directed port by providing a lip, a swirl speed can be increased by 12.8% and further modifying this directed port to semi-helical port, it could be increased to 30.8%. VI. SCOPE FOR FURTHER WORK 1. A three dimensional computer simulation of flow Field in inlet ports investigated in the present work can be formulated. 2. This data could be used to predicting compression Swirl and could further connected by computer simulation of diesel engine to the engine performance. Thus by predicting the effect of swirl related parameters on the engine performance, fuel – economy and pollutant formation. VII. REFERENCE 1.
