The performance of a six stroke diesel engine which has been proposed by the authors was experimentally investigated using a cyclical rapid-compression-expansion machine. The ignition delay and the maximum heat release rate in the first and second combustion processes were measured under the various conditions of wall temperature of the engine cylinder. An optical fiber probe connected to a photo sensor was installed into a combustion chamber to measure the ignition delay and to obtain the luminosity of soot exidation in the second compression process. The experimental data were compared with the numerical predictions from the 1st report. As a result, the soot oxidation phenomenon in the second compression process was numerically and experimentally confirmed. It was clarified that the experimental data of the wall temperature effect on ignition delay qualitatively agreed with the numerical prediction.
