At high altitude and low pressure, the changes of inlet and exhaust pressure and the combustion environment in the cylinder lead to the deterioration of physicochemical characteristics and combustion in the cylinder of the coal-based mixed fuel. In this research, based on the plateau environment simulation test platform, the combustion characteristics, dynamic performance and fuel economy of the turbocharged diesel engine burned at different simulated altitudes (0 m, 1500 m, 2500 m, 3500 m and 4500 m) were studied. The results revealed that as altitude increased, the coal-based composite fuel caused the diesel engine's in-cylinder pressure, pressure rise rate, and instantaneous heat release rate to gradually decrease, the flameout period to gradually extend, and the center of gravity of combustion to gradually delay. At low engine speed, the average effective pressure cycle variation rate increased significantly. The coal-based complex fuel diesel engine has increased in-cylinder pressure, torque, and effective thermal efficiency, as well as peak instantaneous heat release rate at high altitude, when compared to diesel combustion. It also causes a reduction in the maximum pressure rise rate, a forward shift in the combustion center of gravity, a reduction in the average effective pressure cycle rate of change, and a shortening of the stall period.

Understanding the influence of environmental boundary parameters on the through-flow characteristics of two-stage supercharged centrifugal compressors is the key to maximizing the power recovery potential of diesel engines at high altitudes. In this paper, the influence of the compressor through-flow characteristics on the full-load thermal cycle performance of a diesel engine under variable altitude is studied by means of tests and simulation. The results show that with the increase in altitude, the range of stable work flow decreases, and the pressure ratio of the plugging point changes greatly with altitude. The efficiency of the compressor with the same mass flow point decreases, and the highest efficiency point moves in the direction of the small flow range. With the goal of maximizing the torque of the diesel engine under full load and low speed, the key geometric parameters of the variable-altitude through-flow characteristics of the two-stage supercharged compressor were optimized as follows: at the altitudes of 0 m, 2500 m, and 5500 m, the diesel engine torque increased by 5.89%, 3.78%, and 2.18%, respectively. Based on the optimization method of the compressor through-flow design, a new direction is provided to break through the research on the independent limitation of the diesel engine thermal cycle performance optimization and compressor flow control.

The twin variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) System, through efficient use of exhaust energy, maximizes internal combustion engine (ICE) power, reduces exhaust emissions and improves reliability. However, the internal flow characteristics of the twin-VGT system are greatly affected by the environment. To ensure that the two-stage adjustable supercharged internal combustion engine is efficient in all geographical environments and under all operating conditions, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research on the internal flow characteristics of high- and low-pressure turbines. In this paper, an experimental system of the flow characteristics of a double variable-geometry turbocharging (twin-VGT) system is designed and developed. A two-stage variable turbine flow characteristic test was carried out, focusing on the relationship between the initial rotational velocity of high variable-geometry turbocharging (HVGT) and blade opening in low variable-geometry turbocharging (LVGT). The effects of high- and low-pressure variable-geometry turbocharger (VGT) blade opening on available exhaust energy, expansion ratio distribution, blade velocity ratio, compressor power consumption and isentropic efficiency were studied. The results show that when the available energy of exhaust gas is constant, with the increase in HVGT turbine speed, when the LVGT blade opening decreases by 10%, the low-pressure turbine expansion ratio increases by about 0.23.
