The Mathematical Model

A first principle based-control oriented gasoline engine model is proposed that is based on the mathematical model of the actual piston and crankshaft mechanism. Unlike conventional mean value engine models (MVEMs), which involve approximating the torque production mechanism with a volumetric pump, the proposed model obviates this rather over-simplistic assumption. The alleviation of this assumption leads to the additional features in the model such as crankshaft speed fluctuations and tension in bodies forming the mechanism. The torque production dynamics are derived through Lagrangian mechanics. The derived equations are reduced to a suitable form that can be easily used in the control-oriented model. As a result, the abstraction level is greatly reduced between the engine system and the mathematical model. The proposed model is validated successfully against a commercially available 1.3 L gasoline engine. Being a transparent and more capable model, the proposed model can offer better insight into the engine dynamics, improved control design and diagnosis solutions, and that too, in a unified framework.

Control Framework

The efficiency of the spark ignition (SI) engine degrades while working at part loads. It can be optimally dealt with a slightly different thermodynamic cycle termed as an Atkinson cycle. It can be implemented in the conventional SI engines by incorporating advanced mechanisms as variable valve timing (VVT) and variable compression ratio (VCR). In this research, a control framework for the Atkinson cycle engine with flexible intake valve load control strategy is designed and developed. The control framework based on the extended mean value engine model (EMVEM) of the Atkinson cycle engine is evaluated in the view of fuel economy at the medium and higher load operating conditions for the standard new European driving cycle (NEDC), federal urban driving schedule (FUDS), and federal highway driving schedule (FHDS) cycles. In this context, the authors have already proposed a control-oriented EMVEM model of the Atkinson cycle engine with variable intake valve actuation. To demonstrate the potential benefits of the VCR Atkinson cycle VVT engine, for the various driving cycles, in the presence of auxiliary loads and uncertain road loads, its EMVEM model is simulated by using a controller having similar specifications as that of the conventional gasoline engine. The simulation results point toward the significant reduction in engine part load losses and improvement in the thermal efficiency. Consequently, considerable enhancement in the fuel economy of the VCR Atkinson cycle VVT engine is achieved over conventional Otto cycle engine during the NEDC, FUDS, and FHDS cycles.

Blended Fuels

Air pollution, especially in large cities around the world, is associated with serious problems both with people’s health and the environment. Over the past few years, there has been a particularly intensive demand for alternatives to fossil fuels, because when they are burned, substances that pollute the environment are released. In addition to the smoke from fuels burned for heating and harmful emissions that industrial installations release, the exhaust emissions of vehicles create a large share of the fossil fuel pollution. Alternative fuels, known as non-conventional and advanced fuels, are derived from resources other than fossil fuels. Because alcoholic fuels have several physical and propellant properties similar to those of gasoline, they can be considered as one of the alternative fuels. Alcoholic fuels or alcohol-blended fuels may be used in gasoline engines to reduce exhaust emissions. This study aimed to develop a gasoline engine model to predict the influence of different types of alcohol-blended fuels on performance and emissions. For the purpose of this study, the AVL Boost software was used to analyse characteristics of the gasoline engine when operating with different mixtures of ethanol, methanol, butanol, and gasoline (by volume). Results obtained from different fuel blends showed that when alcohol blends were used, brake power decreased and the brake specific fuel consumption increased compared to when using gasoline, and CO and HC concentrations decreased as the fuel blends percentage increased.

Diagnostic Capabilities

A novel first principle based control oriented model of a gasoline engine is proposed which also carries diagnostic capabilities. Unlike existing control oriented models, the formulated model reflects dynamics of the faultless as well as faulty engine with high fidelity. In the proposed model, the torque production subsystem is obtained by integration of further two subsystems that is model of a single cylinder torque producing mechanism and an analytical gasoline engine cylinder pressure model. Model of a single cylinder torque producing mechanism is derived using constrained equation of motion (EOM) in Lagrangian mechanics. While cylinder pressure is evaluated using a closed form parametric analytical gasoline engine cylinder pressure model. Novel attributes of the proposed model include minimal usage of empirical relations and relatively wider region of model validity. Additionally, the model provides model based description of crankshaft angular speed fluctuations and tension in the rigid bodies. Capacity of the model to describe the system dynamics under fault conditions is elaborated with case study of an intermittent misfire condition. Model attains new capabilities based on the said novel attributes. The model is successfully validated against experimental data.

There are many technologies that being developed to increase the efficiency of internal combustion engines as well as reducing their fuel consumption.  In this paper, the main area of focus is on cylinder deactivation (CDA) technology. CDA is mostly being applied on multi cylinders engines. CDA has the advantage to improve fuel consumption by reducing pumping losses at part load engine conditions. Here, the application of CDA on 1.6L four cylinders gasoline engine is studied. One-dimensional (1D) engine modeling work is performed to investigate the effect of intake valve strategy on engine performance with CDA. 1D engine model is constructed based on the 1.6L actual engine geometries. The model is simulated at various engine speeds at full load conditions. The simulated results show that the constructed model is well correlated to measured data. This correlated model is then used to investigate the CDA application at part load conditions. Also, the effects on the in-cylinder combustion as well as pumping losses are presented. The study shows that the effect of intake valve strategy is very significant on engine performance. Pumping losses is found to be reduced, thus improve fuel consumption and engine efficiency.

At present, the application of turbocharging in compression ignition (CI) engines represents almost all of the applications, especially for transportation where fuel efficiency and low emissions are the main targets. Following this approach, the possibility to couple an electric drive to the turbocharger (electric turbo compound, ETC) to recover the residual energy of the exhaust gases is becoming more and more attractive, as demonstrated by several studies around the world. The present paper shows the first numerical results of a research program under way which is focused on the comparison of the benefits resulting from the application of two ETC configurations to a four cylinders CI engine (1561 cm3). In the first configuration, called single-ETC, a variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) is coupled to an electric generator (mechanic connection); in the second, called dual ETC, the two turbomachines (the variable nozzle turbine and the compressor) are separated and each one is coupled to its own electric machine. Starting from the experimental maps of the turbine and compressor, the complete engine model was created using the AVL BOOST one-dimension code. Compared with the no-ETC engine, the adoption of the single-ETC shows interesting benefits in term of energy recovery at the highest engine speeds and loads, with consequent decrease of fuel consumption. Dual ETC allows the operation of turbine and compressor at different speeds with further reduction of the total brake specific fuel consumption.
