To be effective, a turbocharger’s compressor must be accurately designed to match the engine’s requirements. This study presents a novel non-parametric optimisation of the turbocharger compressor diffuser based on the compressor efficiency. The numerical models are based on the validation and mesh dependency study against experimental data from three points on each speed line of 150,000 (rpm) and 80,000 (rpm). The geometry and case data are related to the TD025-05T4 compressor from the 1.2-L Renault Megane passenger car. The turbocharger compressor diffuser geometry was optimised using the adjoint solver method within ANSYS FLUENT 2019 R1. The adjoint solver provides a gradient-based optimisation that can automatically create a series of iterations of a design, so that the mesh gradually deforms into an optimal shape to achieve a single target, the compressor efficiency in this study. The study considers a total of six operating cases on the compressor map to optimise the full and partial load compressor operations, leading to a real-world drive cycle. These cases are the three cases (closer to surge, stable midpoint, and closer to the choke point) on each of the speed lines. A typical result for mid-stable operation on a 150,000 (rpm) speed line shows a gradual increase in efficiency up to a maximum of 2.6% improvement. The optimal diffuser geometry impacts the overall car engine efficiency for real-world drive cycles, increasing power output and improving thermal efficiency.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100150,"journal":{"name":"Automotive and Engine Technology","volume":"7 1-2","pages":"179 - 196"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s41104-022-00108-6.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50506581","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Depending on the powertrain configuration, these mode shifts can simply mean activation and deactivation of the internal combustion engine (ICE), switching between different hybrid modes, e.g. series and parallel driving or even gear selection. Especially under dynamic as well as real driving conditions any kind of post-processing is very likely required for limitation of this frequency due to drivability reasons. Most commonly used are time domain filters, hystereses or penalty terms. Nevertheless, these post-processing methods affect the fuel efficiency of the control strategy itself and do not achieve optimal behaviour under all circumstances. Therefore, in this paper, a new possibility for debounce of mode shifts has been investigated using dynamic longitudinal vehicle simulation. By including a physical transition cost vs. benefit estimation for each possible shift in driving mode an energy-based debounce method can be set up. The proposed method enables further improvements towards optimal control. The debounce approach itself requires no predictive knowledge. Recently, both drivability and efficiency can be obtained simultaneously and even for customer use.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100150,"journal":{"name":"Automotive and Engine Technology","volume":"7 1-2","pages":"165 - 178"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50482711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The efficiency of an engine increases either by the increase in compression ratio or expansion ratio. This paper presents a new concept for a higher expansion process in comparison to compression process stroke on the base of the Miller cycle, rather than early or late closing inlet valves. The proposed mechanism works with eccentric crankshaft movement around the eccentric-derived path to achieve a shorter compression process and longer over-expansion process stroke. The theoretical simulation results of SI engine were obtained using thermodynamic quasi-dimensional combustion (burned and unburned zone) power cycle integrated with the intake and exhaust system. The best result of over-expansion (OE) system over non-OE has been observed at 1500–2000 rpm, and the corresponding results are: increment in indicated thermal efficiency from 36 to 38.5%, brake torque from 32 to 46 N-m, brake power from 6.52 to 9.46 kW and indicated power from 7.36 to 10.89 kW, and maximum BSFC decrement 5.42% at 1500 rpm. OE system has a higher value of CO concentration throughout the speed range; however, the NO concentration in ppm decreased by 1.62% at 1500 rpm at the same EVO crank angle. Thus, this mechanism offers significant benefits in thermal efficiency, fuel consumption, and NO emission. And, it is highly beneficial at 1500–2000 rpm engine run, which shows most suitable for engine-integrated electric power generation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100150,"journal":{"name":"Automotive and Engine Technology","volume":"7 1-2","pages":"137 - 152"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s41104-021-00100-6.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50457040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The VTM simulation approach is fast becoming equivalent to conducting thermal load tests with prototypes for vehicles powered by internal combustion engines. This is especially true in the early development phase of the vehicle. The accuracy of the VTM simulations plays a pivotal role at them being accepted as an eventual replacement for physical testing. The correct prediction of thermal loads in VTM simulations depends on a multitude of different parameters, but the modelling of the exhaust system plays a central role in it. This is because the exhaust gas, and with it the exhaust system, is the primary source of heat in a vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine. The developed approach not only needs to be accurate but also modular enough to allow for different exhaust configurations to be tested. It also needs to be capable of integration into any VTM simulation workflow while maintaining an industrially acceptable turnaround time. This paper explores a new methodology to achieve these requirements. A 1D/3D hybrid approach to exhaust system modelling is presented. In this, the components that have an enthalpy change of the exhaust gas, such as the turbocharger, have been modelled as 1D and simple components such as pipes have been modelled in 3D. This has the advantage of combining the speed of 1D simulations with the spatial accuracy of 3D simulations. The method uses a unique three-code co-simulation technique for full vehicle VTM simulations. The coupling is between a 3D CFD software, a 1D simulation tool, and a Finite Element based thermal solver. The methodology was validated against experimental data for multiple loadcases. The results show good agreement with experiment within acceptable tolerances.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100150,"journal":{"name":"Automotive and Engine Technology","volume":"7 1-2","pages":"115 - 136"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s41104-022-00104-w.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50511583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Vehicle measurements show that under specific conditions during cold start, NO<sub>x</sub> can be partially stored and converted on on-filter and flow-through SCR catalysts. The purpose of this work was in a first step to analyse the main influence parameters on the NO<sub>x</sub> storage behaviour. Therefore, synthetic gas test bench measurements have been carried out, varying the gas concentrations, temperature, and gas hourly space velocity (GHSV). These investigations showed that the NO<sub>x</sub> storage effect strongly depends on the NH<sub>3</sub> level stored in the catalyst, GHSV, the adsorbed water (H<sub>2</sub>O) on the catalyst, and the temperature of the catalyst. Further influence parameters such as the gas composition with focus on carbon monoxide (CO), short-chain hydrocarbons and long-chain hydrocarbons have been analysed on a synthetic gas test bench. Depending on operating conditions, a significant amount of NO<sub>x</sub> can be stored on a dry catalyst during the cold start phase. The water vapor from the combustion condenses on the cold exhaust pipe during the first seconds, or up to a few minutes after a cold start. As the water vapor reaches the surface of the catalyst, it condenses and adsorbs onto it, leading to a sudden temperature rise. This exothermal reaction causes the stored NO<sub>x</sub> to be desorbed, and furthermore it is partially reduced by the NH<sub>3</sub> stored in the catalyst.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100150,"journal":{"name":"Automotive and Engine Technology","volume":"7 1-2","pages":"81 - 96"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s41104-021-00099-w.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50506176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
