Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research described in this thesis investigates the air flow characteristics of an Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) intake port, via numerical simulation. The specific port design is used on an ICE employed in a competitive racing endeavor. The intake port plays a substantial role in the performance of an ICE. The intake port, in this case, has not been thoroughly optimized to provide the most desirable amount of bulk flow to the combustion chamber in order to increase performance. This research involved bench top measurements, reverse engineering, modeling and numerical simulations, all of which employed commonly available equipment and commercial codes. The existing induction system is digitally modeled, analyzed and improved for performance. The numerical simulations, or computational fluid dynamic (CFD) calculations, are validated against physical bench top measurements of the original component. Historically, techniques for optimizing the port flow through the specific design evaluated in this thesis are largely based on machining the port with trial-and-error, or the designers experience. Material would be removed from the port using the designers experience and the flow would be determined experimentally using a Flow Bench. It is very time consuming and can be expensive if parts are damaged. Because the intake port being analyzed in this thesis has had extensive improvement up to this point, potential improvements could be subtle and difficult to distinguish. This stems from issues that include a minor response from altering the design variables on the Pareto Frontier. For a given system, the Pareto Frontier is the set of parameters that possess the state of results for which it is impossible to make any one design variable better off without making at least one other variable worse off. A relatively flat Pareto Frontier, found from altering the design variables makes using a typical goal seek routine difficult. However, improvements can still be realized either through a typical goal-seeking approach or by using a more interactive approach. The contribution of this work is applying a CFD based interactive optimization method to a very mature intake port design. This thesis has shown that even an intake port worked on for multiple decades can be improved using computer aided engineering tools as well as current-day engineering optimization practices and knowledge. The outcome of this research is an improvement to an already very mature intake port design based on CFD solutions and a low-level optimization approach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, together with its companion volume Design Techniques for Engine Manifolds - Wave Action Methods for IC Engines, reports the significant developments that have occurred over the last twenty years and shows how mature the calculation of one-dimensional flow has become. In particular, they show how the application of finite volume techniques results in more accurate simulations than the 'traditional' Method of Characteristics and gives the further benefit of more rapid and more robust calculations. CONTENTS INCLUDE: Introduction Governing equations Numerical methods Future developments in modelling unsteady flows in engine manifolds Simple boundaries at pipe ends Intra-pipe boundary conditions Turbocharging components The application of wave action methods to design and analysis of flow in engines.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reports on the significant developments over the past two decades in designing manifolds for internal combustion engines, and shows how mature the calculation of one-dimensional, unsteady flow has become. Particularly describes how many of the limitations of the Method of Characteristics, used to calculate the unsteady flow of the compressible gases in the engine, can be removed by applying finite volume techniques, resulting in more accurate simulations and allowing more rapid and robust calculation. Helps practicing and student engineers understand how wave action in the inlet and exhaust manifolds of reciprocating engines affects the performance of the engine. Distributed in the US by ASME.

Download or read book David Vizard s How to Port and Flow Test Cylinder Heads written by David Vizard and published by CarTech Inc. This book was released on 2012 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porting heads is an art and science. It takes a craftsman's touch to shape the surfaces of the head for the optimal flow characteristics and the best performance. Porting demands the right tools, skills, and application of knowledge. Few other engine builders have the same level of knowledge and skill porting engine heads as David Vizard. All the aspects of porting stock as well as aftermarket heads in aluminum and cast-iron constructions are covered. Vizard goes into great depth and detail on porting aftermarket heads. Starting with the basic techniques up to more advanced techniques, you are shown how to port iron and aluminum heads as well as benefits of hand and CNC porting. You are also shown how to build a high-quality flow bench at home so you can test your work and obtain professional results. Vizard shows how to optimize flow paths through the heads, past the valves, and into the combustion chamber. The book covers blending the bowls, a basic porting procedure, and also covers pocket porting, porting the intake runners, and many advanced procedures. These advanced procedures include unshrouding valves, porting a shortside turn from the floor of the port down toward the valve seat, and developing the ideal port area and angle. All of these changes combine to produce optimal flow velocity through the engine for maximum power.
Download or read book Introduction to Modeling and Control of Internal Combustion Engine Systems written by Lino Guzzella and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internal combustion engines still have a potential for substantial improvements, particularly with regard to fuel efficiency and environmental compatibility. These goals can be achieved with help of control systems. Modeling and Control of Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) addresses these issues by offering an introduction to cost-effective model-based control system design for ICE. The primary emphasis is put on the ICE and its auxiliary devices. Mathematical models for these processes are developed in the text and selected feedforward and feedback control problems are discussed. The appendix contains a summary of the most important controller analysis and design methods, and a case study that analyzes a simplified idle-speed control problem. The book is written for students interested in the design of classical and novel ICE control systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To extract maximum performance, an engine needs an efficient, well-designed, and properly tuned exhaust system. In fact, the exhaust system's design, components, and materials have a large impact on the overall performance of the engine. Engine builders and car owners need to carefully consider the exhaust layout, select the parts, and fabricate the exhaust system that delivers the best performance for car and particular application. Master engine builder and award-winning writer Mike Mavrigian explains exhaust system principles, function, and components in clear and concise language. He then details how to design, fabricate, and fit exhaust systems to classic street cars as well as for special and racing applications. Air/exhaust-gas flow dynamics and exhaust system design are explained. Cam duration and overlap are also analyzed to determine how an engine breathes in air/fuel, as the exhaust must efficiently manage this burned mixture. Pipe bending is a science as well as art and you’re shown how to effectively crush and mandrel bend exhaust pipe to fit your header/manifold and chassis combination. Header tube diameter and length is taken into account, as well as the most efficient catalytic converters and resonators for achieving your performance goals. In addition, Mavrigian covers the special exhaust system requirements for supercharged and turbocharged systems. When building a high-performance engine, you need a high-performance exhaust system that’s tuned and fitted to that engine so you can realize maximum performance. This comprehensive book is your guide to achieving ultimate exhaust system performance. It shows you how to fabricate a system for custom applications and to fit the correct prefabricated system to your car. No other book on the market is solely dedicated to fabricating and fitting an exhaust system in high-performance applications.
