  • 摘要:Engine research community interest in the Radio-Frequency corona-based ignition systems is currently gaining in importance mainly due to their capability to ensure robust combustion at challenging operating conditions such as very lean mixture and/or high EGR dilution. The benefits of Corona low-temperature plasma foster the early flame development thanks to combustion precursors production and to a more energetic and volumetric discharge, resulting in a larger amount of involved mixture. The corona discharge generates ionizing waves, named streamers, whose temporal and spatial variability in orientation, length and branching can affect the combustion onset and, therefore, the engine cycle-to-cycle variability.In this work, the discharge natural luminosity of a RF corona igniter, characterized by four tips electrodes, was recorded in an optically accessible engine via high-speed camera detection. A preliminary statistical analysis of the spatial and temporal streamer variability was performed by operating in motored conditions. Four different engine speeds and two different loads were explored in order to deeply investigate the streamer behaviour at diverse engine operating conditions.A comparison between a motored and a lean operating condition is also proposed to analyse, at a specific engine speed, the mixture influence on the streamers propagation before the start of the combustion.
