Ethanol reforming gas combined with EGR technology can not only improve thermal efficiency, but also reduce pollutant emission under lean combustion condition. In this investigation, GT-Power is used to carry out one-dimensional simulation model calculation and analysis to explore the combustion characteristics, economy performance of a direct injection gasoline engine when the excess air coefficient (λ) increases from 1 to 1.3 and the ethanol reforming gas mixing ratio increases from 0% to 30% at the working condition of 2000 r/min and 10 bar. Then the EGR system is introduced to deeply discuss the working characteristics of the direct injection gasoline engine when the EGR rate increases from 0% to 20%. The results show that the increase of λ leads to the decrease of in-cylinder pressure and the delay of the peak of cylinder pressure.

Hydrous ethanol not only has the advantages of high-octane number and valuable oxygen content, but also reduce the energy consumption in the production process. However, little literature investigated the internal flow and cavitation of hydrous ethanol-gasoline fuels in the multi-hole direct injector. In this simulation, a two-phase fuel flow model in injector is established based on the multi-fluid model of Euler-Euler method, and the accuracy of model is verified. On the basis of this model, the flow of different hydrous ethanol-gasoline blends is calculated under different injection conditions, and the cavitation, flow rate, and velocity at the outlet of the nozzle are predicted. Meanwhile, the influence of temperature and back pressure on the flow is also analyzed. The results show that the use of hydrous ethanol reduces the flow rate, compared with the velocity of E0, that of E10w, E20w, E50w, E85w, and E100w decreases by 10%, 12.9%, 17.6%, 20%, and 23.5%, respectively.

With the increasing application of turbochargers on internal combustion engines, there are more and more examples of vibration faults in turbochargers. The dynamics characteristics of the bearing-rotor system of engine turbocharger systems have received extensive attention. The bearing-rotor system dynamics is a discipline that couples bearing fluid lubrication research and rotor dynamics. The lubrication characteristics of the bearing and the dynamic characteristics of the rotor must be studied at the same time. In this paper, the lubrication model of floating ring bearing of turbocharger is established, and the viscosity lubrication condition considering heat transfer effect is obtained. Based on the Capone cylindrical bearing oil film force model, the nonlinear oil film force equation of the floating ring bearing is deduced. Further the dynamic model of the Jeffcott rotor-floating ring bearing system is established.
