First Exploration on the Performance of Dimethoxymethane Gasoline in Small Single-Cylinder Engines
The external characteristics of a 125 mL engine with full throttle were tested by using 93# gasoline and a blended gaso-line containing dimethoxymethane.The results showed that under the same condition,the output power and torque of gasoline containing dimethoxymethane had little change,the fuel consumption was reduced,and the exhaust emission of the engine was improved obviously.After a motorcycle with a displacement of 125 mL was injected with 97# gasoline and blended gasoline contai-ning dimethoxymethane of different purity separately,fuel consumption and exhaust gas test were carried out at different speeds on the chassis test machine.The results showed that when dimethoxymethane was added to gasoline,motorcycle exhaust emis-sion was improved slightly,and dimethoxymethane gasoline with different purity had different fuel consumption.
