Study of the effect of the EGR heat exchanger on the internal combustion engine cooling system

The article presents a study and modification of the cooling system of a KAMAZ R6 in-line diesel engine using a heat exchanger of the combustion products recirculation system in the Simcenter AMESim one-dimensional simulation software. In the course of the research, the problems of engine overheating when using a heat exchanger of the combustion products recirculation system were identified, and possible solutions were proposed and investigated to optimize the temperature level of the coolant in the engine cooling system.

A micro cogeneration unit based on a three-cylinder internal combustion engine, Skoda MPI 1.0 L compressed natural gas (CNG), with an output of 25 kW at 3000 RPM is proposed in this paper. It is a relatively simple engine, which is already adopted by the manufacturer to operate on CNG. The engine life and design correspond to the original purpose of use in the vehicle. A detailed dynamic model was created in the GT-SUITE environment and implemented into an energy balance model that includes its internal combustion engine, heat exchangers, generator, battery storage, and water storage tank. The 1D internal combustion engine model provides us with information on engine start-up time, actual effective power, friction power, and the amount of heat going to the cooling system and exhaust pipe. The catalytic converter was removed from the exhaust pipe, and the engine was always operating at full load; thus, engine power control is not considered. An energy storage system for an island operation of the entire power unit for a large, detached house was designed to withstand accumulated energy for a few days in the case of a breakout. To reach a low initial system cost, the possible implementation of worn-out battery packs toward emission reduction in terms of the second life of the battery is proposed. The energy and emission balance are carried out, and the service life of the engine is also discussed.

The internal combustion power equipment is a typical cyber-physical system (CPS). The traditional design method is to separate the information system from the physical system, and then to simulate and optimize separately every system. That can not achieve the best performance. Aiming at the internal combustion power equipment with multi-disciplinary deep integration, this paper establishes the multi-disciplinary model of the whole and key components based on Dymola software. There are mainly mechanical system, combustion system, cooling system, control system and other simulation models, including deceleration and fuel cut-off control unit modeling, start-stop control unit modeling and speed limit control unit modeling. The performance of each model is simulated and analyzed. The mathematical models of engine characteristic curve and fuel supply rate curve are established through experimental study. Finally, taking the simulation model of automobile power system as an example, the simulation calculation and experimental verification are carried out, and the relationship among fuel supply rate, torque, speed and valve of internal combustion engine is obtained, as well as the cooling capacity of the cooling system is studied. The experimental results show that the maximum error between the simulation speed curve and the actual speed curve is within ± 2 km/h. The research results of this paper can provide theoretical basis for multidisciplinary modeling and simulation of internal combustion power equipment, and also provide technical support for performance analysis of internal combustion engine.

Automotive manufacturers nowadays are constantly working on improving their internal combustion engines’ performance by reducing the fuel consumption and emissions, without compromising the power generated. Manufacturers are therefore relying on virtual engine models that can be run on simulation software in order to reduce the amount of time and costs needed, in comparison with experiments done on engine test benches. One important element of the intake system of an internal combustion engine is the throttle valve, which defines the amount of air reaching the plenum before being drawn into the cylinders. This article discusses a widely used model for the estimation of air flow rate through the throttle valve in an internal combustion engine simulation. Experiments have been conducted on an isolated throttle valve test bench in order to understand the influence of different factors on the model’s discharge coefficient. These experiments showed that the discharge coefficient varies with the pressure ratio across the throttle valve and with its angle. Furthermore, for each angle, this variation can be approximated with a linear model composed of two parameters: the slope and the Y-Intercept. These parameters are calibrated for different throttle valve angles. This calibration can be done using automotive manufacturers’ standard engine test fields that are often available. This model is then introduced into an engine simulation model, and the results are compared to the experimental data of a turbocharged engine test bench for validation. They are also compared with a standard discharge coefficient model that varies only with the throttle valve angle. The results show that the new model for the discharge coefficient reduces mass flow estimation errors and allows expanding the applications of the throttle valve isentropic nozzle model.
