DEVELOPMENT OF OFF-DESIGN TURBOCHARGER MODELLING COMBINED WITH 1-D ENGINE MODEL

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Numerical Investigation of the Effect of Cooled EGR on Turbocharger HCCI Engine Performance Fueled with Methane

Turbocharger Design and Performance Analysis

Performance testing identifies many aspects of turbocharger performance. Although, when performance is less than satisfactory, test cell mapping only identifies secondary or tertiary troubles demonstrating inconsistencies with expected performance. Such tasks as seeking out and eliminating efficiency losses or increasing operational surge margin are unrealistic expectations when basing your con...

Modelling for a Turbocharger in Rotordynamics

Turbochargers are widely used on commercial automotive vehicles, power generation and marine applications. A comprehensive model for a turbocharger would be an effective tool for fault detection. In this paper, research focus on mathematical modelling of turbochargers supported on floating ring bearings in rotordynamics. Nonlinear hydrodynamic forces are considered in order to describe the dyna...

Scalable turbocharger performance maps for dynamic state-based engine models

Adapting turbocharger performance maps to a form suitable for dynamic simulations is challenging for the following reasons: (1) the amount of available data is typically limited, (2) data are typically not provided for the entire operating range of the compressor and turbine and (3) the performance data are non-linear. To overcome these challenges, curve fits are typically generated using the p...
