In this study it has been tried, to compare results and convergence rate of sensitivity analysis and conjugate gradient algorithms to reduce fuel consumption and increasing engine performance by optimizing the timing of opening and closing valves in XU7/L3 engine. In this study, considering the strength and accuracy of simulation GT-POWER software in researches on the internal combustion engine...

A novel mechanism concept for a fully flexible, motordriven, cam-actuated engine valve was reported in [1]. It is capable of i) variable valve timing, ii) variable lift and iii) individual valve phasing control. To check the validity of the concept in real engine environment, engine tests were performed using a single-cylinder of a modified sixcylinder 3.8-liter production engine, with the new ...

Substantial improvements in engine fuel e ciency torque and reduction of emissions are available with cam less actuation capable of continuous control of engine valve lift duration and timing A phenomenological model has been developed for an unthrottled operation that is key to e ciency gain An adaptive nonlinear controller has been designed to coordinate intake valve lift and duration by usin...

This paper summarizes the results of design of new mechanical variable valve actuation (hereafter VVA) systems, developed for high performance motorcycle engines, at University of Napoli Federico II, Department of Industrial Engineering–Section Mechanics and Energy (hereafter DiME). In addition to a first simple (and limited) system used just as a model for the previous analysis, the work has e...

In this paper, a model-based strategy for the air-path, fuel injection timing, and fuel pressure control of a heavy-duty Diesel engine is presented. The engine system is a six-cylinder Diesel engine, equipped with a dual-stage fixed geometry turbo system and a variable valve actuation (VVA) system. The VVA operates on the intake valves, and realizes a late Miller combustion cycle. The control s...

A model based control scheme is designed to regu late the cylinder air charge of a camless multicylinder engine for unthrottled operation The controller con sists of a feedforward and an adaptive feedback scheme based on a control oriented model of the breathing process of an engine equipped with electro hydraulic springless valve train The nonlinear control scheme is designed to achieve cylind...

This experimental work was concerned with comparison of inlet valve actuation strategies in a thermodynamic single cylinder spark ignition research engine equipped with a mechanical fully variable valvetrain on both the inlet and exhaust. The research involved study of the effects of the valvetrain on combustion, fuel economy and emissions when used to achieve variable valve timing alone and wh...
