For these reasons, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are working make easier use Compression Ignition (CI) engines. While an easy substance with manageable energy content, has few drawbacks, such as: high latent heat vaporization, auto-ignition temperature. These drawbacks have on the quality combustion and therefore solutions found still being studied give like behavior. One solution pilot for ignition quantities that remain (&gt; 20 %). A previous study carried out at PRISME laboratory highlighted possibility using Combustion Enhancer based Nitrates (CEN) additive levels. Here CEN through New One-Shot Engine (NOSE), pressure, temperature (HPHT), optically accessible vessel. Many parameters explored: Delay Time (IDT) by UV analysis photomultiplier (PM) which allow verification, vapor liquid penetration shadowgraphy technique Diffused Back-Illumination (DBI) Lift-Off Length (LOL) also Ultra-Violet analysis.

As the country that emits most carbon in world, China needs significant and urgent changes emission control transportation sector order to achieve goals of reaching peak emissions before 2030 achieving neutrality by 2060. Therefore, promotion new energy vehicles has become key factor these two objectives. For reason comprehensive cost directly affects end customer’s choice heavy truck models, this work compares advantages, disadvantages, economic feasibility diesel, liquefied natural gas (LNG), electric, hydrogen, methanol trucks from a total life cycle end-user perspective under various scenarios. The study results show when prices LNG, electricity, fuels are at their highest, price hydrogen is 35 CNY/kg, five types highest lowest (HHT), (MHT), diesel (DHT), electric (EHT), LNG (LNGHT), ignoring adverse effects cold environments on car batteries. When average or levels, 30 CNY/kg 25 HHT, DHT, MHT, EHT, LNGHT. considering impact environments, even with lower electricity prices, EHT struggle be economical low. If above 1 CNY/kWh, regardless viability than HHT purchase 500,000 CNY CNY/kg. Simultaneously, an exhaustive competitiveness analysis powered diverse sources highlights specific categories ought prioritized for development during periods challenges they confront. Finally, based future trends, corresponding policy recommendations proposed facilitate high decarbonization sector.

With the global shift in energy structure and advancement of "double carbon" strategy, methanol has gained attention as a clean low-carbon fuel engine sector. However, corrosion-wear coupling failure caused by acidic byproducts, such methanoic acid formaldehyde, generated during combustion severely limits durability engines. In this study, we employed systematic approach combining construction corrosion liquid concentration gradient experiment with full-load full-speed bench test to elucidate synergistic mechanism core friction pairs (cylinder liner, piston, piston ring) methanol-fueled The corrosion-resistant gray cast iron (CRGCI), high chromium (HCCI), nodular (NCI) cylinder liners, along F38MnVS steel ZL109 aluminum alloy pistons. Piston rings DLC, PVD, CKS coatings were also tested. Corrosion kinetic analysis was conducted formaldehyde/methanoic solution, range 0.5-2.5% for formaldehyde 0.01-0.10% acid, simulating products methanol. results showed that depth CRGCI lowest low-concentration solutions, measuring 0.042 0.055 μm. presence microalloyed Cr/Sn/Cu within its pearlite matrix, directional distribution flake graphite, effectively inhibited micro-cell effect. high-concentration solutions (#3), HCCI reduced 60.7%, resulting measurement 0.232 μm, attributed dynamic reconstruction Cr2O3-Fe2O3 composite passive film. Conversely, galvanic action between spherical graphite surrounding matrix significant NCI, reaching 1.241 DLC coating obstructed permeation pathway formate ions due amorphous carbon structure. solution #3, recorded weight loss 0.982 mg, which accounted only 11.7% observed coating.
