Book Implementation of an Integrative MATLAB Engine Model as a Final Project in an Internal Combustion Engines Course

Download or read book Implementation of an Integrative MATLAB Engine Model as a Final Project in an Internal Combustion Engines Course written by Theron Oscar White and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is insufficient time within a single technical elective to learn principles of internal combustion engine operation as well as specialized simulation tools such as GT Suite or Kiva. A number of authors have recognized this constraint, and they have structured their internal combustion engine text around use of programming languages such as FORTRAN, C++, and MATLAB®. This paper reports on how the capabilities of MATLAB® have been synergized with learning activities and homework assignments to set the stage for a successful final engine simulation project. The MATLAB® code involved in this effort can accept basic input parameters such as bore, stroke, compression ratio, spark advance, throttle position, RPM, air/fuel equivalence ratio, and volumetric efficiency and output power and torque using the Wiebe function and bulk temperature. In addition to power and torque predictions, the model described here uses a two-zone heat release model to predict brake specific fuel consumption as well as volumetric emissions. An engine-specific volumetric efficiency map is suggested to ensure accurate results at all throttle positions. Students are pleasantly surprised at how well their customized MATLAB® model is able to match published performance data from a diversity of applications: mopeds, racing motorcycles, sedans, and SUVs. The model has been used successfully by students for simulating engine results from 50 cm3 to 5 liters. These simulations produced power and torque results very close to the actual outputs of the engine based on factory engine data. These simulations also yield brake specific fuel consumption and brake specific emissions maps that agree with empirical data. A positive impact on professional skill development is demonstrated through a series of course surveys.

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 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.

Download or read book Computational Optimization of Internal Combustion Engines written by Yu Shi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-22 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational Optimization of Internal Combustion Engines presents the state of the art of computational models and optimization methods for internal combustion engine development using multi-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools and genetic algorithms. Strategies to reduce computational cost and mesh dependency are discussed, as well as regression analysis methods. Several case studies are presented in a section devoted to applications, including assessments of: spark-ignition engines, dual-fuel engines, heavy duty and light duty diesel engines. Through regression analysis, optimization results are used to explain complex interactions between engine design parameters, such as nozzle design, injection timing, swirl, exhaust gas recirculation, bore size, and piston bowl shape. Computational Optimization of Internal Combustion Engines demonstrates that the current multi-dimensional CFD tools are mature enough for practical development of internal combustion engines. It is written for researchers and designers in mechanical engineering and the automotive industry.

Book Mixture Formation in Internal Combustion Engines

Download or read book Mixture Formation in Internal Combustion Engines written by Carsten Baumgarten and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-09-28 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A systematic control of mixture formation with modern high-pressure injection systems enables us to achieve considerable improvements of the combustion pr- ess in terms of reduced fuel consumption and engine-out raw emissions. However, because of the growing number of free parameters due to more flexible injection systems, variable valve trains, the application of different combustion concepts within different regions of the engine map, etc., the prediction of spray and m- ture formation becomes increasingly complex. For this reason, the optimization of the in-cylinder processes using 3D computational fluid dynamics (CFD) becomes increasingly important. In these CFD codes, the detailed modeling of spray and mixture formation is a prerequisite for the correct calculation of the subsequent processes like ignition, combustion and formation of emissions. Although such simulation tools can be viewed as standard tools today, the predictive quality of the sub-models is c- stantly enhanced by a more accurate and detailed modeling of the relevant pr- esses, and by the inclusion of new important mechanisms and effects that come along with the development of new injection systems and have not been cons- ered so far. In this book the most widely used mathematical models for the simulation of spray and mixture formation in 3D CFD calculations are described and discussed. In order to give the reader an introduction into the complex processes, the book starts with a description of the fundamental mechanisms and categories of fuel - jection, spray break-up, and mixture formation in internal combustion engines.

Book Cycle By Cycle Variation in Spark Ignition Internal Combustion Engines

Download or read book Cycle By Cycle Variation in Spark Ignition Internal Combustion Engines written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary objective of this work was to extend the engine cycle simulation used by the Oxford Internal Combustion Engine Group to enable it to perform cycle-by-cycle modelling. A literature review concluded that the most appropriate metric for quantifying the cyclic variation was the coefficient of variation of the indicated mean effective pressure, and that for zero dimensional computer simulations, the most sensible parameter to perturb for cycle-by-cycle modelling was the burn rate. Modelling attempts using burn rate information alone resulted in an under-prediction of the cyclic variability exhibited by the engine. The work then examined a two-zone polytropic process model in an attempt to improve burn rate estimation. The model proved unreliable for burn rate calculations. The Rassweiler and Withrow method was then modified to include both the compression and expansion indices throughout the combustion period. The technique proved viable, but was not used because the slow burn up of the significant crevice mass in the experimental engine made calculation of an accurate expansion index doubtful. A further cause of the under-prediction in cyclic variability was postulated to be incomplete combustion, which is not detected by the burn rate model. A completeness of combustion parameter was derived from information contained in the Rassweiler and Withrow analysis. This parameter was used along with burn rate variations to perturb the cycle simulation and resulted in good cycle-by-cycle agreement between the experimental data and the modelled data in terms of mean effective pressure, maximum pressure, and the phasing of maximum pressure. Cyclic measurements of NO showed that the technique did not predict the cyclic variability in NO formation, and this was attributed to the sensitivity of NO formation to parameters that were not allowed to vary on a cyclic basis within the model (such as residuals).
