Abstract:

Purpose. In order to solve the increasingly serious energy crisis and environmental pollution problems, to find a clean and renewable alternative fuel for vehicle engines becomes the only way. In this paper, a hydrogen-fueled engine experiment system has been established. And because of some combustion characteristics of hydrogen, abnormal combustion such as pre-ignition and backfire usually happens. Ignition timing optimization is very helpful for the suppression of abnormal combustion.

Methodology. On the basis of ignition timing data calibrated on hydrogen-fueled engine experiment system, an ignition timing optimization model, which is the function of rotating speed and loading of the engine, is established by the fuzzy neural network (FNN) combined with the particle swarm optimization (PSO). A simulation experiment has been carried out on the model.

Findings. The experiment results show that the mean absolute error of the prediction is 0.704 and the mean relative error is 2.2%. The algorithm is capable of fast, accurate forecasts on the best ignition timing of the hydrogen fueled-engine.

Originality. In this paper, a PSO-FNN model was firstly used in the hydrogen-fueled engine experiment system and it promotes the application of artificial intelligence algorithm in Engineering.

Practical value. The PSO-FNN model is proved to be a very effective approach to optimize the ignition timing, because it avoids a large number of engine calibration tests and greatly reduces the workload of the experiment and improves the efficiency.
