A Simplified Model of the Internal Combustion Engine
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract. This project further investigates a model of a simplified internal combustion engine considered by Kranc in 1977. Using Euler’s method for ordinary differential equations, we modeled the interaction between the engine’s flywheel and thermodynamic power cycle. Approximating with sufficiently small time intervals (0.001 seconds over a period of 12 seconds) reproduced Kranc’s results with the engine having an average angular velocity of 72/sec.

APPLICATION OF THE SINGULAR BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM FOR INVESTIGATION OF PISTON DYNAMICS UNDER POLYTROPIC EXPANSION PROCESS
In this paper a mathematical simulation of a simplified internal combustion engine is presented. To contribute engine kinematics and its geometry, simple relations are derived for constrained motions. The equation of motion for the piston forms a singular boundary value problem. The uniqueness of the solution was studied in the Banach space. For solving governing equations an iterative numerica...
متن کاملStudy on the effect of using reformed biogas as a low reactivity fuel in a dual-fuel engine (RCCI)
The scarceness of non-renewable energies, rising fossil fuels prices, as well as strict environmental regulations have forced many researchers to focus on utilizing environmentally friendly renewable energies such as biogas in internal combustion engines. Variety in raw materials and process of biogas production results in different components and percentages of various elements, including meth...
متن کاملInternal combustion engines in cylinder flow simulation improvement using nonlinear k-ε turbulence models
The purpose of this paper is to studying nonlinear k-ε turbulence models and its advantages in internal combustion engines, since the standard k-ε model is incapable of representing the anisotropy of turbulence intensities and fails to express the Reynolds stresses adequately in rotating flows. Therefore, this model is not only incapable of expressing the anisotropy of turbulence in an engine c...
