Abstract

Three common lubricant additives, including an antioxidant, detergent, and an antifoamer, were added to diesel fuel to perform a diesel engine bench test. Particulate matter samples underwent thermogravimetric analysis to investigate the effect of lubricant additives on the particulate matter oxidation process, characteristic temperature, and activation energy. The results showed the following. Different lubricant additives result in different variation trends in the thermogravimetric curve of a particulate matter sample by varying the rotating speed and torque. When the rotating speed was stable, as the torque increased, the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C declined rapidly during the initial stage and then increased rapidly. When the torque was stable, as the rotating speed increased, the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C increased initially and then declined. The particulate matter of Fuel C had the lowest level of activation energy at approximately 57.89 J·mol⁻¹. The particulate matter of Fuel A had the highest level of activation energy at approximately 74.10 J·mol⁻¹. When the fuel has a higher cetane number, the combustion chemical reaction rate is faster and results in a more complete reaction. The active substance contact surface increases, which facilitates particulate matter oxidation.

1. Introduction

The percentage of a lubricant additive in lubrication oil is approximately 5∼15%. Additives play an important role in improving lubrication oil quality, reducing engine friction and wear, and increasing the service life of lubrication oil. Studies [1–4] have shown that lubrication oil is a major source of diesel engine particulate matter. Emission of soluble particulate matter due to lubrication oil consumption has reached 0.018∼0.036 g/kW·h. The combustion of additives in lubrication oil, such as calcium, zinc, and phosphorus, creates 0.0015∼0.0030 g/kW·h of ash emissions, which contributes to approximately 15% of insoluble particulate matter emissions. Lubricant-based oil undergoes pyrolysis and a dehydrogenation reaction at high temperatures and generates insoluble particulate matter, which contributes to 20∼30% of all particulate matter emissions.

Researchers worldwide have conducted extensive research on the theoretical relationship between lubrication oil and particulate matter emission/oxidation characteristics. HN Sharma et al. performed thermogravimetric (TG) analysis of diesel engine particulate matter, which was tested under various operating parameters, including the oxygen flow rate, sample mass, oxygen partial pressure, and heating rate [5]; the authors discovered that the oxidation rate of particulate matter decreased with a decrease in heating rate and oxygen flow rate, and the difference in sample mass had an insignificant impact on the particulate matter oxidation activity. DQ Mei et al. calculated the activation energy of the oxidation reaction of diesel engine particulate matter soot via thermogravimetric analysis and discovered that the weightlessness of the particulate matter mass was primarily caused by the soluble organic fraction (SOF) volatilization in the low-temperature zone and soot oxidation in the high-temperature zone, where the proportions in the two thermal zones were approximately 32% and 63%, respectively [6]. Al-Qurashi and Boehman compared and analyzed the oxidation characteristics of diesel engine particulate matter under different exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rates via thermogravimetric analysis [7]; the authors discovered that when the EGR rate was 20%, the particulate matter had a low ignition temperature, short burnout time, and more intense oxidation. Man et al. compared the weightlessness rates of diesel engine particulate matter mass at temperatures between 450 and 550°C under various conditions [8]; the authors discovered that a low load resulted in a lower particulate matter oxidation rate. Pirjola et al. analyzed the effect of metal elements in lubrication oil on the particulate matter oxidation characteristics by mixing lubrication oil with diesel [9]; the authors discovered that when 2% lubrication oil was added to diesel, the ignition temperature of the particulate matter was reduced by 150–200°C, the oxidation rate of the particulate matter increased significantly, and the activation energy reduced slightly, that is, from 108 kJ·mol^-1 to 101 J·mol^-1. A study by Sonntag et al. suggested that the weighted contribution of lubrication oil to light vehicle particulate matter emissions was approximately 25% [10]. A path tracking result of lubrication oil consumption suggested that, under a partial load, lubrication oil significantly contributes to nanometre-sized particulate matter emissions; when the size of the particulate matter was on the nanometre scale, reducing the phosphorous content additive content of the lubrication oil did not necessarily reduce the amount of nanometre-sized particulate matter emissions from a diesel engine.

However, among the existing literature, there are only a limited number of studies that have investigated the effect of lubricant additives on particulate matter emissions and oxidation characteristics. Therefore, in this paper, three common lubricant additives, including an antioxidant, detergent, and an antifoamer, were added to diesel fuel to perform a diesel engine bench test. Particulate matter samples underwent thermogravimetric analysis to investigate the effect of lubricant additives on the particulate matter oxidation process, characteristic temperature, and activation energy.

2. Experimental Methodology

2.1. Experimental Diesel Fuel Preparation Scheme

Three LOAs, namely, an antioxidant (main component: zinc dialkyl phosphorodithioate), a foam inhibitor (main component: dimethylpolysiloxane), and a detergent (main component: high-alkali value synthetic calcium sulfonate), were selected for the experiment. Three experimental fuels were prepared using weight percentages. Each fuel was prepared by adding one of the three LOAs to a certain amount of diesel at a mass ratio of 1 : 100 (LOA: diesel) and then stirring the mixture homogeneously. Before the start of the experiment, the antioxidant-diesel, foam inhibitor-diesel, and detergent-diesel fuels were allowed to stand for 24 h. No separation between the additive and diesel was observed in any of the fuels.

The antioxidant-diesel, foam inhibitor-diesel, and detergent-diesel fuels are referred to as Fuel A, Fuel B, and Fuel C, respectively, in the following discussions.

2.2. Quality Evaluation of the Experimental Diesel Fuels

Fuel A, Fuel B, and Fuel C were tested using a MINISCAN fuel quality analyzer. The main technical specifications of the analyzer are as follows: measuring range for the cetane number: 20–80; measuring range for total aromatic hydrocarbons: 0–80%; measuring range for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs): 0–50%; and measuring range for kinematic viscosity: 0–10 m/s (40°C). The testing was based on the partial least-squares method and an advanced chemical model that met the ASTM E1655 standard. Table 1 presents a summary of the test results for the three fuels.

2.3. Experimental Diesel Engine and Test Conditions

The experiment was conducted on a high-pressure common-rail diesel engine. The technical parameters of the diesel engine are as follows: cylinder diameter: 93 mm; piston stroke: 102 mm; displacement: 2.77 L; total power/rotational speed: 85 kW/3,600 r/min; maximum torque/rotational speed: 285 N/2,000 r/min; and compression ratio: 17.2. The test conditions in this paper are shown in Table 2, and the effects of operating parameters such as speed and torque of the diesel engine on the oxidation characteristics of exhaust particulates are evaluated.

2.4. Sample Collection and Pretreatment

The PM sample collection system consists mainly of a sample collection pipe, a vacuum pump, a differential pressure gauge, and a microorifice uniform deposit impactor (MOUDI). During the experiment, diesel exhaust was pumped by the vacuum pump into the MOUDI sample collection system at a constant volume flow rate of 10 ± 0.5 L/min. Due to inertia, PM was placed on the aluminum foil (φ47 mm) on the impact plate and was thus divided into various classes. Before sampling, the aluminum foil filter paper was placed in a drying chamber (humidity: 40%) for over 24 h to balance its temperature and humidity. Then, silica gel was sprayed onto the surface of the filter paper. Afterward, the filter paper was dried in an oven at 600°C for 2 h and subsequently placed in a drying chamber for 24 h. During the sampling process, a U-shaped cooling pipe was used to cool the diesel exhaust to ensure the safe operation of the MOUDI. After sampling, to prevent PM from blocking the orifices and affecting sample collection under the subsequent condition, the orifice disks of various sizes were removed from the MOUDI and immersed in a solution composed of dichloromethane and n-hexane for cleaning and subsequently blown dry using clean compressed air. Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of the principle of PM impact sampling.

The soluble OM, residual unburned fuel, and some unburned lubricating oil adhering to the surface of the DEPM could easily cause it to aggregate and form blocks, which would affect its micromorphological and structural testing under a high magnification microscope. Therefore, DEPM samples were pretreated [11–13]. The samples were immersed in anhydrous ethanol, an organic solvent, and subjected to oscillation in an ultrasonic oscillator for over 10 min. The well-oscillated samples were then centrifuged at a rotational speed no lower than 7,000 r/min for 5 min. The aforementioned steps were repeated three times. Before testing, the samples were coated with gold to improve their surface conductivity.

2.5. Sample Analysis Equipment

A NETZSCH thermal synchronous heat analyzer (Figure 2) is used to analyze the particle samples by thermogravimetric analysis, and the ignition temperature, the combustion temperature, and the reaction interval of the particles are measured. The main technical specifications of the instrument are as follows: temperature range is RT-1500 degrees C, heating rate is 0–50 (min⁻¹), enthalpy accuracy is 1%, temperature accuracy is 0.1%, and balance sensitivity is 0.1–1 μg.

3. Results and Discussion

3.1. Particulate Matter Oxidation Process

Particle oxidation activity refers to the difficulty of particles being oxidized and is usually studied by thermogravimetry [14]. By analyzing the mass change curve in the weight loss process of the particle, the change of the particle sample at different temperatures can be obtained. At the same time, the ignition temperature, the burnout temperature, the apparent activation energy, and other characteristic parameters can be calculated.

Figure 3 shows the thermogravimetric analysis results of particulate matter samples from diesel engine bench tests using three different fuels, that is, Fuel A, Fuel B, and Fuel C, under various rotating speeds and torques. In the thermogravimetric analysis, the initial temperature was 40°C; the terminating temperature was 750°C; the heating rate was 15°C/min; the reaction gas was nitrogen; and the flow rate was 50 ml/min. Because the particulate matter mass essentially did not change before reaching 250°C, in this paper, the thermogravimetric curve between 250 and 750°C was selected for the analysis.

The curve shows that when the temperature is less than 300°C, the mass percentage of the particulate matter sample essentially did not change. As the temperature increased continuously, the mass percentage of the particulate matter sample declined gradually. When the temperature reached 650°C, the mass percentage of the particulate matter sample no longer decreased, and the oxidation process was essentially complete. This process primarily consists of water content evaporation, SOF component volatilization, and soot pyrolysis [15–17]. When different lubricant additives are added, the variations in the thermogravimetric curves of the particulate matter sample versus rotating speed and torque differ. When the diesel engine torque stabilized at 250 N·m, as the rotating speed increased, the particulate matter TG curve shifted towards the low-temperature zone; when the rotating speed increased, the particulate matter was more likely to be oxidized. When an antioxidant was added, this trend was more conspicuous. Lubrication oil detergent has no significant impact on the particulate matter weightlessness rate. When the temperature was between 350 and 500°C, the oxidation rate of the particulate matter of Fuel C increased with rotating speed. After 500°C, the particulate matter oxidation rate under a low rotation speed exceeded that under a high rotation speed. As the torque increased, the TG curve of the particulate matter of Fuel A shifted slightly towards the right, which means that, under a low rotating speed, when the torque was larger, the particulate matter was less likely to be oxidized. When the torque was 250 N·m, the particulate matter of Fuel B was more likely to be oxidized. When the torque was 175 N·m, the particulate matter fuel was most likely to be oxidized. When the temperature exceeded 500°C, the effect of torque on the particulate matter oxidation rate was inconspicuous. These results show that when a diesel engine is under different operating conditions, the effects of lubricant additives on the particulate matter oxidation characteristics of a diesel engine differ.

3.2. Characteristic Temperature

In the process of thermogravimetric analysis, the particles are evaporated, volatilized, pyrolyzed, and oxidized, and the oxidation reactions of particles in different sources are different [18–20]. In this paper, the characteristic temperature is used to describe the difference of particle oxidation characteristics, and the ignition temperature (T_i), the peak weight loss temperature (T_p), and the burnout of the particles are selected. Temperature (T_h) describes the sensitivity to temperature in the process of particle oxidation.

3.2.1. Ignition Temperature

The particulate matter ignition temperature (T_i) is the temperature of the particulate matter soot when combustion begins. The weightlessness rate at the particulate matter ignition temperature is −0.1%°C⁻¹.

Figures 4(a) and 4(b) show the ignition temperature of the diesel engine particulate matters of Fuels A, B, and C under various operating conditions. Figure 4(a) shows that when the rotational speed stabilized at 1200 r/min, as the torque increased, the ignition temperatures of the particulate matter of Fuel A and Fuel B gradually declined; the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C declined rapidly during the initial stage and then increased rapidly. When the torque was 175 N·m, the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C was only 382°C. This may be due to the fact that Fuel C has the highest cetane value of 53.7, which is easy to ignite and has a high degree of combustion perfection. At the same time, Fuel C and its particles have the lowest polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon content, the lowest energy required for particle oxidation, and the lowest ignition temperature. When the torque was 100 N·m and 200 N·m, the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C was approximately 500°C, which significantly exceeded the values of Fuel A and Fuel B. Figure 4(b) shows that when the torque was stable, as the rotating speed increased, the ignition temperatures of the particulate matter of Fuel A and Fuel B declined. When the rotating speed was 2800 r/min, the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel A was approximately 407°C; the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel B was approximately 409°C. As the rotating speed increased, the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C increased initially and then declined [21–25]; when the rotating speed was 2000 r/min, the particulate matter ignition temperature reached the peak at approximately 438°C.

3.2.2. Burnout Temperature

The burnout temperature (T_h) is the temperature at the later stage of high-temperature oxidation when the particulate matter weightlessness rate is −0.1%·°C⁻¹. Figures 5(a) and 5(b) show the burnout temperatures of the diesel engine using the particulate matter of Fuel A, Fuel B, and Fuel C under different operating conditions. Figure 5(a) shows that when the rotating speed was stable, as the torque increased, the burnout temperature of the particular matter of Fuel A exhibited no apparent change; the burnout temperature of the particular matter of Fuel B increased initially and then declined rapidly; the burnout temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C declined initially and then increased rapidly. When the torque was 100 N·m, the particulate matter of Fuel A had the highest burnout temperature at approximately 662°C; the particulate matter of Fuel C had the lowest burnout temperature at approximately 655°C. When the torque was 250 N·m, the particulate matter of Fuel B had the lowest burnout temperature at approximately 656°C. Figure 5(b) shows that when the torque was stable, as the rotating speed increased, the burnout temperatures of the particulate matters from Fuel A, Fuel B, and Fuel C declined. When the rotating speed was 2800 r/min, the particulate matter of Fuel B had the highest burnout temperature at approximately 660°C; the particulate matter of Fuel C had the lowest burnout temperature at approximately 580°C.

3.2.3. Weightlessness Rate Peak Temperature

The weightlessness rate peak temperature (T_p) refers to the temperature that corresponds to the weightlessness rate peak.

Figures 6(a) and 6(b) show the weightlessness rate peak temperatures of the diesel engine particulate matter from Fuel A, Fuel B, and Fuel C under various operating conditions. Figure 6(a) shows that when the rotating speed was stable, as the torque increased, the weightlessness rate peak temperatures of Fuel A and Fuel C declined, the weightlessness rate peak temperature of the particulate matter from Fuel B increased initially and then declined. When the torque was 100 N·m, the particulate matter of Fuel A had the highest weightlessness rate peak temperature at approximately 630°C. When the torque was 250 N·m, the particulate matter of Fuel C had the lowest weightlessness rate peak temperature at approximately 576°C. Figure 6(b) shows that when the torque was stable, as the rotating speed increased, the weightlessness rate peak temperatures of the particulate matters of Fuel A and Fuel B declined; the weightlessness rate peak temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C increased. When the rotating speed was 1200 r/min, the particulate matter of Fuel C had the lowest weightlessness rate peak temperature at approximately 577°C. When the rotating speed was 2800 r/min, the particulate matter of Fuel A had the lowest weightlessness rate peak temperature at approximately 531°C.

3.3. Activation Energy

The activation energy is the minimum energy required for a reactant molecule to become an activated molecule. Higher activation energy indicates that it is more difficult for the chemical reaction to proceed. Based on the thermogravimetric analysis (TG and DTG curve), origin curve fitting was performed based on the least square method to obtain a fitting curve of the particulate matter in an O₂ atmosphere [26–28], as shown in Figure 7. The results show that the linear regression coefficient of the fitting curve was greater than 0.98, and thus, the fitting result is accurate. The slope of the fitting line was calculated to determine the activation energy of the particulate matter.

Table 3 lists the calculated activation energy of the particulate matter, which shows that the particulate matter of Fuel C had the lowest activation energy at approximately 57.89 J·mol⁻¹, and the particulate matter of Fuel A had the highest activation energy at approximately 74.10 J·mol⁻¹. The fuel quality analysis result (Table 1) shows that when the fuel cetane number is higher, the combustion chemical reaction rate is faster, the reaction is more complete, and the active substance contact surface increases, which facilitates particulate matter oxidation [29, 30].

4. Conclusions

The combustion of lubricating oil has a great influence on particulate matter emission of diesel engine. Lubricant additive is the main component of lubricating oil, and the oxidation characteristics of particulate matter directly affect the oxidation regeneration process of posttreatment system. In other words, lubricating oil additives directly affect the efficiency of diesel particulate posttreatment system. Therefore, this paper studies the influence of three commonly used lubricating oil additives on the oxidation characteristics of particulate matter and obtains the following conclusions.(1)Different lubricant additives result in different variation trends in the thermogravimetric curve of a particulate matter sample by varying the rotating speed and torque.(2)When the rotating speed was stable, as the torque increased, the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C declined rapidly during the initial stage and then increased rapidly. When the torque was stable, as the rotating speed increased, the ignition temperature of the particulate matter of Fuel C increased initially and then declined.(3)When the torque was stable, as the rotating speed increased, the burnout temperatures of the particulate matter of Fuels A, B, and C declined. When the rotating speed was stable and the torque was 100 N·m, the particulate matter of Fuel A had the highest weightlessness rate peak temperature at approximately 630°C; when the torque was 250 N·m, the particulate matter of Fuel C had the lowest weightlessness rate peak temperature at approximately 576°C.(4)When the fuel has a higher cetane number, the combustion chemical reaction rate is faster and results in a more complete reaction. The active substance contact surface increases, which facilitates particulate matter oxidation.
