Abstract:In order to reduce the fuel consumption rate of a heavy-duty diesel engine, the matching of a two-stage turbocharger using GT-POWER software was carried out on a single stage variable geometry turbocharger(VGT) diesel engine. Simulation results show the proposed two-stage turbocharging system can operate at peak efficiency at the matching point and provide sufficient intake airflow across all operating conditions. Fully closing the wastegate valve in the low-pressure stage and synergistically optimizing the wastegate valve opening in the high-pressure stage along with Miller cycle valve closing angle can further reduce the fuel consumption rate of the two-stage turbocharged engine. Furthermore, reducing the intercooler temperature between stages can reduce pumping losses and enhance boost pressures. Specifically, a temperature reduction from 100 ℃ to 50 ℃ at the rated point can result in an approximate improvement of 3 g/(kW·h) in fuel consumption rate. Experimental validation of the improvement in fuel efficiency from the two-stage turbocharging system was conducted, revealing reduction in fuel consumption rates during low-speed operating conditions and reduction of 4.1% in fuel consumption rate at the high-efficiency operating point. |
