Abstract

The effect of thermal-barrier coatings (TBCs) reduces fuel consumption, effectively improving the engine efficiency. This research focused on a TBC with a thickness of 300 µm insulating the combustion chamber of a direct ignition (DI) engine. The piston crown, inlet and exhaust-valve head were coated using air-plasma-spray coating. Ceramic powder materials such as molybdenum (Mo) and aluminum oxide titanium dioxide (Al2O3-TiO2) were used. A performance test of the engine with the coated combustion chamber was carried out to investigate the brake power, brake thermal efficiency, volumetric efficiency, brake specific fuel consumption and air-fuel ratio. Also, an emission-characteristic test was carried out to investigate the emissions of unburned hydrocarbon (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NO, NO2, NO3) and smoke opacity (SO). The results reveal that the brake thermal efficiency and brake specific fuel consumption show significant increases because of these coating materials. The effect of the Al2O3-TiO2 coating significantly reduces the HC and CO engine emissions.
