    The document discusses Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engines, which use autoignition to combust air-fuel mixtures. HCCI engines have higher efficiency and lower emissions than traditional engines but are difficult to control. Control methods include variable compression ratio, induction temperature, and valve actuation. While promising, HCCI engines also have challenges including higher cylinder pressures and emissions during certain operations.

    What is an HCCI engine ?
    • HCCI engine is a combination of both spark ignition and
    compression ignition engine in which fuel and air are
    compressed to the point of auto ignition.
    • There is no need of spark plug to ignite the air fuel mixture.
    • Creates the same amount of power as a traditional engine but
    uses less fuel.
    Working Of HCCI Engine:
    • It consists of Four strokes
    i. Suction stroke : Fuel air mixtures enters into the engine
    cylinders through inlet valve.
    ii. Compression stroke : Piston moves from BDC to TDC
    iii. Combustion stroke : Auto ignition takes place due to
    compression.
    iv. Exhaust stroke : Removal of exhaust gases from the engine
    cylinder through exhaust valve into atmosphere.
    Comparison with other Conventional Engines :
    Future of HCCI Engine:

    • The future of HCCI looks promising.


    • Major companies such as Mercedes Benz, Honda, Volkswagen
    have invested in HCCI research.
    • Preliminary prototype figures shows that HCCI cars can be used
    in coming years.
    Why HCCI ?
    Control method of HCCI Combustion

    • The Major drawback of HCCI engine is to control the auto


    ignition it may cause damage to the engine.
    • No direct control methods possible as in SI or CI engine.
    • Various control methods are:
    i. Variable compression ratio
    ii. Variable induction temperature
    iii. Variable valve actuation
    Variable compression ratio:

    • The geometric compression ratio can be changed with a


    movable plunger at the top of the cylinder head.
    • This concept used in diesel model aircraft engine.
    Variable induction temperature :

    • The Simplest method uses resistance heater to vary inlet


    temperature but this method is slow.
    • To over come this FTM (Fast Thermal Management) method is
    used , it is accomplished by rapid mixing of cool and hot intake
    air takes place achieving optimal temperature as required and
    hence better control.
    Variable valve actuation :

    • This method gives finer control within combustion chamber.


    • Involves controlling the effective pressure ratio.
    • It controls the point at which the intake valve closes.
    • If the closure is after BDC , the effective volume and hence
    compression ratio changes.
    Advantages:

    • Can achieve up to 15% fuel savings


    • Lower peak temperature leads to cleaner combustion/lower
    emissions
    • Can use gasoline, diesel, or most alternative fuels HCCI
    automobiles could reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
    • The peak temperature is lower than the SI Engine
    • HCCI must be operated at very high compression ratios
    resulting in high efficiency and clean exhaust gases
    Disadvantages:

    • Higher cylinder peak pressures may damage the engine.


    • Auto-ignition is difficult to control.
    • HCCI Engines have a smaller power range.
    • High HC and CO emissions.
