Resumo

A novel method for determining ignition delay is presented. This method utilises combustion resonance as a means of determining the onset of ignition. Results are shown from an ethanol fumigation study comprising of substitutions up to 50% at full, three-quarter and half load. It has been demonstrated that at full load there is a decrease in ignition delay with increasing ethanol substitutions, whereas at half load there is an increase in ignition delay with increasing ethanol substitutions. It is suggested that this conflicting result is a consequence of the auto ignition of ethanol.
