Experimental Study on the Performance-Influencing Factors of an Aviation Heavy-Oil Two-Stroke Direct-Injection Ignition Engine

To study the influence of control parameters under cold-start and low-load conditions on the performance of a heavy-oil, two-stroke, direct-injection, ignition engine for use in aviation, the operation of a two-stroke, direct-injection engine was studied in a bench test. The results were as follows: ① When the ambient temperature is 15 °C, the battery voltage is 12.4 V, and the peak speed of the starting motor is 1200 r/min. As the concentration factor increases, the cold-start speed increases, and the fuel consumption increases. The influence on the cold start is reduced after reaching a certain concentration. The cold-start time decreases with the increasing magnetization pulse width. The cold-start time is the shortest at an oil–gas interval of 6 ms. ② Under small-load conditions of 3000 r/min and 14% to 16% throttle, a higher ignition energy increases the engine power. Pollutant emissions are the lowest when the fuel injection is 7.5 mg and the excess air coefficient is approximately 1.1.
