| Summary: | Fuel availability is an issue that will become ever more important in the
future. Therefore, fuel systems will be required to ensure proper operation
with a variety of fuel types. The main idea of this study is to develop
a control strategy that ensures high fuel conversion efficiency
and low emissions levels when employing dual–fuel operation in a micro–cogeneration
installation powered by a spark ignition engine. Biogas
was considered as the main fuel, while liquid fuel is used to compensate
for eventual variations in the gaseous fuel flow. Stoichiometric
air-fuel ratio is required at all times so that a three way catalytic converter
can be used to simultaneously reduce carbon monoxide, unburned
hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxide emissions. |
