Abstract

The envisaged work attempts to explore the inherent capability of LPG as a potent alternative fuel, in diesel dual fuel paradigms in order to address the omni-present BTE-NOx-SOOT trade-off perspectives of an existing diesel engine. Furthermore, considering the prohibitive costs of computational time of present day 3D CFD platforms in multi-objective calibration challenges in I.C. engine domains, a unique gene expression programming (GEP) model has been proposed, to act as a robust and computationally rational system identification tool (SIT) in the LPG-diesel dual fuel platform. For the developed model, load, LPG energy share and injection duration were the chosen input variables, whereas BSFCEQ, BTE, NOx, SOOT, and HC were the corresponding output responses. Subsequent to GEP modeling, it was revealed that developed GEP model was competent enough to map the experimental engine output parameters with higher and commendable ranges of accuracy. The obtained results of coefficient of correlation were in the ranges of 0.99262–0.99769, while the error metrics of mean absolute percentage error values were in the ranges of 1.03–3.08% and very low values root mean square errors, respectively.
