Methods for rapid estimation of indicator and efficient efficiency of internal combustion engines
The article discusses the issue of a quantitative computational assessment of the efficiency of the thermal cycle of a piston internal combustion engine based on the values of the effective and indicator efficiency. A simplified technique for the operational assessment of the efficiency of the thermal cycle of a piston internal combustion engine is proposed. The technique is based on a mathematical description of thermodynamic processes occurring during the development of the thermal cycle of an engine with ignition of the working mixture from compression (diesel engine), which allows it to be expanded to new engines, including those operating under electronic control.
