In this paper, a third order nonlinear model of the airpath of a turbocharged diesel engine is derived, which is then converted into linear parameter-varying (LPV) form with the intake and exhaust manifold pressure as parameters. The model predicts the mass air flow (MAF) and manifold absolute pressure (MAP) based on the EGR and VGT actuator positions, speed, and load. A comparison to experimen...

The main element of the air intake system is an manifold. These are components which control flow value that will be used in combustion chamber. Thisstudyaimsto analyse velocity distribution all runners and to compare design manifold previous study. Simulations performed on two types Design 1, inlet end located next regulator chamber whilst for 2, inthe middle Intake parameters such as distribu...

We address the control of the airpath of a turbocharged S.I. engine equipped with Variable Valve Timing actuators (VVT). Compared to standard configurations, the engine does not possess any external EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) loop. Rather, VVT are used to produce internal EGR, providing similar beneficial effects in terms of emissions reduction. The airpath dynamics takes the form of a sin...

In development of Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engines, simultaneous control of combustion phasing and power output has been a major challenge. In this study, a new strategy is developed to control the engine power output and combustion phasing at any desired operating condition. A single zone thermodynamic model coupled to a full kinetic mechanism of Primary Reference Fuels (...
