Application of natural gas to compression ignition engines

Wojtyniak M.

443-448

The paper presents general information on natural gas properties, reserves, production and distribution. Its proved reserves are estimated to have been ca. 6 trillion cubic feet. Main reserves are in Russia. Application of natural gas to automotive vehicles on the basis of literature review has been presented. European Union, US government and other countries have introduced directives for a natural gas application in the transportation sector. Because natural gas has a low cetane number, it cannot be directly applied to compression ignition engines. Such engines have to be adapted to dual fuelling. An assisted ignition with a pilot fuel quantity is necessary. Comparison of the spark ignition versus dual fuel engines, natural gas versus LPG and methane as well as choice of pilot ignition fuel have been discussed in the paper. Most of natural gas refueling stations is in Argentina. Progress in the field of dual-fuel natural gas engines has been presented. Application of natural gas as a fuel to internal combustion engines is useful regarding economy, emissions and worldwide energy strategy.
