Free-Piston Diesel Engine Dynamics and Control
Free-piston diesel engines are characterized by freely moving pistons without any rigid crankshaft or camshaft connected to the pistons. This allows a highly compact and e cient engine design, but requires automatic control of the piston motion. This paper present a dynamic mathematical model of a free-piston diesel engine, a control oriented dynamic analysis, and a novel computer-based piston ...
متن کاملHigh Performance 3D CFD Codes for Complex Piston Engine Applications
Economic (fuel price), political (energetic independence), health (cancerous pollutants) and environmental (green house effect) concerns have greatly contributed to the evolution of pollutant emission regulations and fuel consumption regulations in the last decade. A better understanding of the combustion process for operating conditions near the stability limit will probably be the next step t...
متن کاملAn Investigation on the Effects of Gas Pressure Drop in Heat Exchangers on Dynamics of a Free Piston Stirling Engine
This paper is devoted to study the effects of pressure drop in heat exchangers on the dynamics of a free piston Stirling engine. First, the dynamic equations governing the pistons as well as the gas pressure equations for hot and cold spaces of the engine are extracted. Then, by substituting the obtained pressure equations into the dynamic relationships the final nonlinear dynamic equations gov...
متن کاملLinear Alternator Technologies Used for Free Piston Stirling
Introduction: The NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC) is conducting in-house research on linear alternators (LA’s) to assist in developing free-piston Stirling convertors for radioisotope space power systems. This abstract intends to summarize the existing and potential types of LA’s that may be used with Stirling power convertors. Many of the existing LA types have been tested at NASA GRC and wor...
متن کاملPerformance Predictions and Test Results of a Free Piston Stirling Engine Driven Heat Pump
Recent progress on a Stirling engine driven hea t pump is described and a modeling technique for predicting engine dynamics is developed. The system described represents a very p romising configuration of engine driven heat pump, because o f the long life characteristics of the free-piston Stirling engin e and the hermetic nature of both the engine and refrigerant work ing fluids. Recent change...
