Book Spark Ignition Engine Modeling and Control System Design

Download or read book Spark Ignition Engine Modeling and Control System Design written by Amir-Mohammad Shamekhi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-02-22 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a step-by-step guide to the engine control system design, providing case studies and a thorough analysis of the modeling process using machine learning, and model predictive control (MPC). Covering advanced processes alongside the theoretical foundation, MPC enables engineers to improve performance in both hybrid and non-hybrid vehicles. Control system improvement is one of the major priorities for engineers seeking to enhance an engine. Often possible on a low budget, substantial improvements can be made by applying cutting-edge methods, such as artificial intelligence when modeling engine control system designs and using MPC. This book presents approaches to control system improvement at mid, low, and high levels of control. Beginning with the model-in-the-loop hierarchical control design of ported fuel injection SI engines, this book focuses on optimal control of both transient and steady state and also discusses hardware-in-the-loop. The chapter on low-level control discusses adaptive MPC and adaptive variable functioning, as well as designing a fuel injection feed-forward controller. At mid-level control, engine calibration maps are discussed, with consideration of constraints such as limits on pollutant emissions. Finally, the high-level control methodology is discussed in detail in relation to transient torque control of SI engines. This comprehensive yet clear guide to control system improvement is an essential read for any engineer working in automotive engineering and engine control system design.

Book Mixture Formation in Spark Ignition Engines

Download or read book Mixture Formation in Spark Ignition Engines written by Hans Peter Lenz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twentyfour years have gone by since the publication of K. Lohner and H. Muller's comprehen sive work "Gemischbildung und Verbrennung im Ottomotor" in 1967 [1.1]' Naturally, the field of mixture formation and combustion in the spark-ignition engine has wit nessed great technological advances and many new findings in the intervening years, so that the time seemed ripe for presenting a summary of recent research and developments. There fore, I gladly took up the suggestion of the editors of this series of books, Professor Dr. H. List and Professor Dr. A. Pischinger, to write a book summarizing the present state of the art. A center of activity of the Institute of Internal-Combustion Engines and Automotive Engineering at the Vienna Technical University, which I am heading, is the field of mixture formation -there fore, many new results that have been achieved in this area in collaboration with the respective industry have been included in this volume. The basic principles of combustion are discussed only to that extent which seemect necessary for an understanding of the effects of mixture formation. The focal point of this volume is the mixture formation in spark-ignition engines, covering both the theory and actual design of the mixture formation units and appropriate intake manifolds. Also, the related measurement technology is explained in this work.

Book Quasi Dimensional Simulation of Spark Ignition Engines

Download or read book Quasi Dimensional Simulation of Spark Ignition Engines written by Alejandro Medina and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-08-20 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the simulations developed in research groups over the past years, Introduction to Quasi-dimensional Simulation of Spark Ignition Engines provides a compilation of the main ingredients necessary to build up a quasi-dimensional computer simulation scheme. Quasi-dimensional computer simulation of spark ignition engines is a powerful but affordable tool which obtains realistic estimations of a wide variety of variables for a simulated engine keeping insight the basic physical and chemical processes involved in the real evolution of an automotive engine. With low computational costs, it can optimize the design and operation of spark ignition engines as well as it allows to analyze cycle-to-cycle fluctuations. Including details about the structure of a complete simulation scheme, information about what kind of information can be obtained, and comparisons of the simulation results with experiments, Introduction to Quasi-dimensional Simulation of Spark Ignition Engines offers a thorough guide of this technique. Advanced undergraduates and postgraduates as well as researchers in government and industry in all areas related to applied physics and mechanical and automotive engineering can apply these tools to simulate cyclic variability, potentially leading to new design and control alternatives for lowering emissions and expanding the actual operation limits of spark ignition engines

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.

Book Unsteady Combustion

Download or read book Unsteady Combustion written by F. Culick and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains selected papers prepared for the NATO Advanced Study Institute on "Unsteady Combustion", which was held in Praia da Granja, Portugal, 6-17 September 1993. Approximately 100 delegates from 14 countries attended. The Institute was the most recent in a series beginning with "Instrumentation for Combustion and Flow in Engines", held in Vimeiro, Portugal 1987 and followed by "Combusting Flow Diagnostics" conducted in Montechoro, Portugal in 1990. Together, these three Institutes have covered a wide range of experimental and theoretical topics arising in the research and development of combustion systems with particular emphasis on gas-turbine combustors and internal combustion engines. The emphasis has evolved roughly from instrumentation and experimental techniques to the mixture of experiment, theory and computational work covered in the present volume. As the title of this book implies, the chief aim of this Institute was to provide a broad sampling of problems arising with time-dependent behaviour in combustors. In fact, of course, that intention encompasses practically all possibilities, for "steady" combustion hardly exists if one looks sufficiently closely at the processes in a combustion chamber. The point really is that, apart from the excellent paper by Bahr (Chapter 10) discussing the technology of combustors for aircraft gas turbines, little attention is directed to matters of steady performance. The volume is divided into three parts devoted to the subjects of combustion-induced oscillations; combustion in internal combustion engines; and experimental techniques and modelling.

Book Large eddy Simulations of Direct injection Spark ignition Engine Spray and Flow Variability

Download or read book Large eddy Simulations of Direct injection Spark ignition Engine Spray and Flow Variability written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cycle-to-cycle variations (CCVs) in engines limit the ability of engine designers to reach the theoretical limits of engine efficiency. This study investigates CCVs in Direct-injection Spark-ignition (DISI) engines through Large-eddy Simulations (LES). Multi-cycle simulations of motored engine flow and spray simulations with variable boundary conditions were performed. The Dynamic Structure turbulence model, which is an advanced 1-equation non-viscosity turbulence model, was used to enable coarser, engineering type meshes and reasonable computational requirements. Multi-cycle motored engine simulations were run for an optical engine at several different engine operating conditions. Comparisons included both pressure and velocity measurements using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). Simulations were run using computational domains that either did or did not include intake and exhaust mixing plenums. Results from runners-only and full-domain simulations were overall similar, but there were differences in specific flow structures at certain times. Changes to engine speed or manifold pressure increased flow magnitudes, even after adjusting for different mean piston speeds, but had relatively minor effects on the flow structure. A spray model adapted from diesel spray simulations is presented. The adapted models were unable to match experimental trends with changing ambient density in both liquid and vapor phases simultaneously. Two spray break-up model parameters were changed to vary as functions of ambient density, which greatly improved the vapor predictions but worsened liquid predictions. Two methods from Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) were used to test the response of the spray models to prescribed uncertainty in spray boundary conditions. The effects of having uncertainty in two numerical model parameters and two physical boundary conditions was examined. Overall simulation uncertainty was much larger than the experimental uncertainty. Further tests showed the uncertainty in the simulation response variables was due primarily to uncertainty in the numerical modeling parameters. When examining the effects of uncertainty in the physical boundary conditions alone, the resulting variability in the response variables was approximately equal to the variability in the spray measurements.
