Combustion Chamber Defined
• The combustion chamber consists of an upper and lower half.– Upper half- Made up of cylinder head and
cylinder wall.– Lower half- Made up of piston head (Crown)
and piston rings.

Design Considerations
• Minimal flame travel
• The exhaust valve and spark plug should be close together
• Sufficient turbulence
![Page 5: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Design Considerations
• A fast combustion, low variability
• High volumetric efficiency at WOT
• Minimum heat loss to combustion walls
• Low fuel octane requirement
![Page 6: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Chamber Shapes
• A basic shapes– Wedge - Hemispherical
– Crescent - Bowl in Piston
![Page 7: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Chamber Shapes
• Wedge– Asymmetric design– Valves at an angle and
off center
![Page 8: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Chamber Shapes
• Hemispherical (Hemi)– Symmetric design
– Valves placed on a arc shaped head
![Page 9: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Chamber Shapes
• Bowl-in-Piston– Symmetric design
– Valves are placed perpendicular to head
![Page 10: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Chamber Shapes
• Crescent (Pent-Roof)– The valves are placed
at an angle on flat surfaces of the head
![Page 11: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Fast Combustion• Effect of spark plug location
Side plug w/o swirl
Side plug with normal swirl
Side plug with high swirl
Central plug w/oswirl
Two plugs w/o swirl
![Page 12: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Fast Combustionin Relation to Shape
![Page 13: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Fast Combustionin Relation to Shape
![Page 14: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Comparison of Burn Angles
![Page 15: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Volumetric Efficiency
• Size of valve heads should be as large as possible
• Want swirl produced
![Page 16: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Heat Transfer
• Want minimum heat transfer to combustion chamber walls
• Open and hemispherical have least heat transfer
• Bowl-in-piston has high heat transfer
![Page 17: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Low Octane
• Octane Requirement related to knock
• Close chambers (bowl-in-piston) have higher knock at high compression ratios than Open chambers (hemispherical and pent-roof)
![Page 18: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Octane Rating• Research Octane Number (RON)• Motor Octane Number (MON)• Octane is one factor in the combustion process
that another group will speak about• Straight chain C-H bonds such as heptane have
weaker C-H bonds than branched chained C-H bonds in branch chained HC such as iso-octane
• Straight bonds are easier to break
![Page 19: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Chemical Compositions
![Page 20: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Knock
• Surface ignition– Caused by mixture igniting as a result of
contact with a hot surface, such as an exhaust valve
• Self-Ignition– Occurs when temperature and pressure of
unburned gas are high enough to cause spontaneous ignition
![Page 21: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Flow
• 2 types of flow– Laminar flow
• Minimal microscopic mixing of adjacent layers
– Turbulent flow• Characterized as a random motion in three-
dimensions with vortices (eddies) of varying size superimposed on one another and randomly distributed in the flow
![Page 22: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Why Turbulence?
– Decrease burn time• Reduces knock • Reduces emissions (NOx)
– Allows for leaner mixture (stratified charge)• Reduces emissions (HC)
– Decreases in combustion temperature• Reduces knock• Reduces emissions (CO)• Reduces power
![Page 23: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Inducing Turbulence
• Valve configuration and valve timing
• Turbulence generation pot
![Page 24: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Characterizing Turbulence
• Eddies are defined by length scales
• The Integral Scale lI measures the largest eddies of the flow field
• The Kolmogorov scale lk measures the smallest eddies
• The Taylor microscale lm relates fluctuating strain rate of flow field to intensity
![Page 25: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Characterizing Turbulence
![Page 26: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Characterizing Turbulence
• Swirl– Axis of rotation is
parallel to cylinder– Generate swirl about
valve axis (inside port)
![Page 27: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Swirl
• Impulse Swirl Meter• Honeycomb flow straightener measures total
torque exerted by swirling flow.• A swirling ratio is defined:
Rs=ω s/2π N
• This ratio is the angular velocity, ω s, of a solid-body rotating flow (equal to angular momentum of actual flow) divided by the crankshaft angular rotational speed
![Page 28: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Swirl
![Page 29: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Characterizing Turbulence
• Tumble– Axis of rotation is
perpendicular to cylinder axis
– Associated with swirl
![Page 30: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Characterizing Turbulence
• Rt is the tumble ratio,
Rt=ω t/2π N
• This ratio compares the angular velocity,
∀ ω t, of the solid-body rotation with same angular momentum as actual velocity distribution in tumble to angular velocity of the crankshaft (N)
![Page 31: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Squish
• Radially inward gas motion that occurs toward end of compression stroke
![Page 32: 21485309 Combustion Chamber Design](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051322/543472e5219acd5e1a8b54e1/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
