In this study, the prediction of performances and emissions of the gasoline engine of a light passenger car has been accomplished. The method of characteristics including friction, heat transfer, area change and entropy gradients was used to analyze the flow in the intake and exhaust systems. For in-cylinder calculation, the single-zone model was adopted for the periods of the intake, exhaust, compression and the expansion of the burnt gas and the 2-zone expansion model was applied to the period of combustion process. The simulation program was verified by comparison with the experimental values both for the naturally aspirated engine and the turbocharged engine showing good agreements. Using the simulation program, multi-valve system and turbocharging were examined as a means of increasing engine performances. |
