Exploration of a new approach to clean and high efficiency combustion with methanol fuel was conducted based on an SI electronic-controlled engine. Dissociated methanol device, electronic controlled unit and its control strategy for the engine were developed. After the engine starts up with gasoline from injectors on inlet-port, the electronic controlled unit ( ECU ) judges the exhaust temperature. When the temperature exceeds 320 ℃, the ECU will switch the engine from neat gasoline fuel mode to neat dissociated methanol fuel mode automatically, and the ECU is calibrated to achieve the engine operating automation under dissociated methanol fuel mode. The testing results indicate dissociated methanol, compared with gasoline or M20 methanol-gasoline, can improve the engine thermal efficiency and fuel economy significantly, and reduce harmful gas emission in exhaust. Therefore, applying dissociated methanol to SI electronic-controlled engine is a new approach to clean and high efficiency combustion with methanol fuel.
