Neat that you are refreshing it all, but why go with a lower gearing when you plan more torque and power?

04-19-2015, 05:24 AM #152Oh I see it looks like a 240 diff.
Neat that you are refreshing it all, but why go with a lower gearing when you plan more torque and power?
With a lightweight flywheel and a big turbo, I'm going to lose low end torque. Shorter gears should make it so I don't miss it too much. I'll have an absolute top speed of 120mph, which I can not ever forsee myself doing. Mostly light city, back country road driving, some highway but I really only do 75 anyway.
Plus, I have a (very eventual) plan to one day see if I can put a 6 speed in the car, the ratios would be perfect.

My head was cracked at #4 and it has taken me awhile to get a replacement as I cannot be bothered to delete the sls. I am doing a lot of Ubering around at the moment. I think I cooked the head back in 2005 and it has taken this long to finally lose compression. Pistons seem OK in terms of play from the top.
I think my pump is in Sweden. Or maybe it is still in the mail. Will have to check.
I am probably going back together stock exhaust and turbo, with a rebuilt Dieselmeken pump, rebuilt kkk turbo and rebuilt head. I can use the old head as a jig for a new exhaust header and turbo setup. I guess it's true what they say - you should never use your daily driver for hot rodding, because you really can't afford to be without it long enough. Maybe I can work out an intercooler setup while I am at it. Definitely going to delete the EGR after cleaning out my intake! Gosh what a mess. Didn't help that the turbo has been leaking oil into it.
My timing chain is reading less than one degree of stretch after 196,000 miles. Is that even possible? You have to squint to convince yourself there is any stretch at all. I have run a lot of Mobil 1 through it, but it had 82,000 when I bought it.
Found a Getrag 5-speed setup. Tempting.

Is there any precedent for an om617 burning 160cc of fuel? I think this is going to require a pressure ratio of quite a bit over 4:1, probably more than 5:1. With great intercooling.

(06-26-2015, 05:20 AM)Petar The OM617 burns around 40cc NA (1 Bar atmospheric pressure
That means:
1 Bar - 80 cc
2 Bar - 120 cc
3 Bar - 160 cc (That's around 45 Psi for you imperial guys)
So yeah that's at least 4:1 PR, probably more to account for inefficiencies
These are arbitrary numbers. The n/a engine may have been set at 40cc, I would bet it's capable of burning near twice that.
There are numerous technical advantages to consider as well. 7.5mm elements, 315 nozzles, big prechambers - all to make injection significantly faster (more power, less smoke, lower EGT's)
Specially made manifolds to make flow as efficient as it can get. A large efficient turbo, a large well placed intercooler, resulting in that 35lbs being near ambient in temperature.
My point being I'm in uncharted waters for the U.S. tuners. Let's get some real dyno numbers and see.

06-26-2015, 08:42 AM #177It is way more than 4:1 because BSFC is like 70% and the compressor is 70% max efficient. You cannot even burn 120cc of fuel at 4:1 PR. DENSITY ratio yes 4:1. But not pressure. You are looking at 4atm of boost.
Not trying to be a killjoy but I just ran through this and found I would need 4:1 PR to burn 120cc with optimal cooling and compressor efficiency. That was based upon VE of 85%, AFR of 18:1. Density is not an arbitrary number.
You could run more fuel of course, but it sounds smoky and Egt may be a problem.
Of course calculations can be completely wrong also. Look forward to seeing what it can do. But I would put some forged rods in the motor as part of the project. I guess that is my point: if you hope to burn all 140cc of fuel, you are talking amounts of boost known to be potentially problematic on stock rods.

06-26-2015, 08:52 AM #178Yes you stand to make some gains on volumetric efficiency, which should help a bit.

Im running 1.9bar boost with a Borgwarner S200G on my 617.952 with 7.5mm pump set to aprox 130-140cc im guessing.
No black smoke @ pedal to the metal when boost is at 1.9bar.
My prechambers are stock. Using monark nozzles, no idea of partnumber but was told they would flow better than the stock bosch ones.
I don't think Led will have any problems burning the fuel
Im guessing no black smoke means the fuel is burned/consumed.
Im running 1.9bar boost with a Borgwarner S200G on my 617.952 with 7.5mm pump set to aprox 130-140cc im guessing.
No black smoke @ pedal to the metal when boost is at 1.9bar.
My prechambers are stock. Using monark nozzles, no idea of partnumber but was told they would flow better than the stock bosch ones.
I don't think Led will have any problems burning the fuel
(06-26-2015, 05:20 AM)Petar The OM617 burns around 40cc NA (1 Bar atmospheric pressure
That means:
1 Bar - 80 cc
2 Bar - 120 cc
3 Bar - 160 cc (That's around 45 Psi for you imperial guys)
So yeah that's at least 4:1 PR, probably more to account for inefficiencies
Yes. A lot more.

I think your experience shows that he will probably be able to defuel the pump enough to prevent black smoke at full throttle. That is very different from being able to burn a specific quantity of fuel.
If you have to guess what your pump is delivering, then you cannot really say much about how much fuel you are burning. It may be delivering substantially less fuel than you think.
You may also not know how much air mass you are delivering without knowing intake temp. What about power? Any dyno runs?
Not easy to draw any conclusions. But it sounds like a fun car.

Well, According to dieselmeken the pump delivers aprox 140cc the way he adjusted it. I've been adjusting the screw since then, but adjusted it back a while later ( measures the height of the screw, and got it back to the same position) So should be around 140cc.

I will try running some Calc with different air to fuel ratios and see how that affects it. Should only be 1/18 off though, so I'm not sure where all that unburned fuel is going. Perhaps the VE is much higher than 0.85.

The numbers are important in designing a setup to burn a certain fuel amount in a certain motor, which is what both you and I are doing. You need to know how much air you need to burn all the fuel. Then you select a turbo to provide that air amount efficiently at your chosen rpm.
Basically either chemistry and physics are right, or Keino is right and I am making faulty assumptions. But I double checked the math and assumptions with Dougal and bush65 over at 4btswaps. If Keino is correct about boost, and correct about no smoke, then there is no way he is correct about his fueling level.
atypicalguy
06-29-2015, 11:56 AM #188It's unbelievable because if you do the math for a 3L motor with 130cc per injector x 5 cylinders with 3L displacement, and 1.9 bar of boost, with 75% volumetric efficiency, 70% compressor efficiency, 80% intercooler efficiency, you get an air to fuel ratio of 12.9:1, which would mean 12% of your fuel would go out the tailpipe as black smoke, which would be a hell of a lot of smoke. AFR should be 17-18:1 for complete combustion.

If it smokes a little too much, just turn the pump down a little?
I see where all these calculations can be handy, but nothingness in real life work theoretically as it should. No two engines are the same, that's why I do minimal calculations and spend my time actually doing it. You just have to make sure you have your stuff in order. Like putting a hx82 on a om617 wouldn't make any sense.

"Complete combustion" yes, maximum power? Probably not.

If there is a big range of air fuel ratios that work, that is also interesting. But a car that makes a ton of black smoke anywhere in the rpm range is probably going to cook my head with Egt and not be good for picking kids up at school.
I would just copy that turbo Dave setup but I have no idea from his comments what his final turbo setup looked like. In particular the high pressure turbo.
The proper thing to do for smoke is turn the boost up so you can burn all the fuel. Not turn the fuel down.

06-30-2015, 01:18 AM #190I guess you have a point, but the calculations are actually pretty simple and I don't have time to do it twice. There seem to be a lot of setups out there that don't work as intended. I don't just want huge power at the top end, so compounds.

1- Actual engine VE
How do you know if the om617 has a VE of maybe 85-90 ?
2- Intercooler efficiency
We run really BIG intercoolers here
3- Actual injected fuel quantity
IPs are calibrated against standard test injectors which might flow more than our injectors.
I see your point. There are a couple of things that you don't know:

2- Intercooler efficiency

3- Actual injected fuel quantity

I will ask Dieselmeken if he can test against standard om617 injectors.
I think 80% intercooling is as efficient as you can get. So I already assumed that.
Volumetric efficiency is hard to pin down. But 2 valve indirect diesels are pretty bad typically and worse at higher rpm. Like 75%. Would be fun to put a mass ow sensor in the intake.
I think there is much less than 120cc being actually delivered. Or people are too busy having fun to pay attention to the smoke in the rear view mirror.

Even the new diesels smoke when giving full power. Like the BMW 335d and 535d. Not as stock but stock they are just that. Stock... That's not even close to maximum power.

The factor you are not considering here (if I haven't missed anything) is the EGT. Stock EGT is way below the maximum power output. To get up there where you have the sweet spot the car is gonna smoke quite bad. So this smokeless thoughts will go down the drain.

The bottom of the first page in that thread discusses Air Fuel ratios, on a 617 no less. According to them, the best power output comes at 13:1, and yes there is smoke.
Settings can be adjusted. When I go to the dyno or track, of course Ill have everything adjusted balls to the wall, smoke be damned. Just cruising around I can have "smoke free" settings, and maybe 50 less HP.
Got the shipping quote today from F.R.A.S, once the payment goes through it will be on its way. Hopefully Ill get it next week or the week after. Once I verify everything fits I'll send out the exhaust manifold and turbine housing for ceramic coating. Then figure out an exhaust and get the clutch/flywheel in (going to my buddy's shop with a lift for that) she'll be ready to roll coal

The flywheel, clutch, and pressure plate all look great. Flywheel weighs 18lbs. Rev Rev Rev.
The manifolds fit great in the chassis. No interference or issues
The issue I do have is the HX35 compressor housing is too big, and hits the hood.
So. I've played with this every way possible and there's no non-hack way to fit it.
Which means I need to find another turbo. Ideally the same flow rates and wheel sizes, just in a smaller package. Looking at maybe a GT3076R.
Thoughts anyone?
