“Virtual Engine/Powertrain/Vehicle” Simulation Tool Solves Complex Interacting System Issues

The analytical design process and diesel engine system design

“…It is desirable to have an integrated simulation environment containing all the engine system design tools for seamless connections between the systems and easy data sharing. Gamma Technologies has made impressive progress to integrate such tools within the GT-SUITE environment (Ciesla et al, 2000;Silvestri et al, 2000;Morel et al, 2003). …”

Impact on vehicle fuel economy of the soot loading on diesel particulate filters made of different substrate materials

“…The general features of the simulation code are described in details in Refs. [29,30], while the construction of the model and the validation process are described more in details in a previous work [31] and will be only briefly summarized hereafter. The baseline model construction requires a careful and detailed schematization of the engine and of the intake and exhaust system geometries, as well as accurate and extensive experimental data, which have to be carefully analyzed in order to properly set the heat transfer and friction loss coefficients, and combustion heat release profiles as well as to estimate the engine friction.…”

Research on the Common Rail Pressure Overshoot of Opposed-Piston Two-Stroke Diesel Engines

“…After analyzing and calculating the model, partial parameters such as rail pressure, engine speed and fuel mass could be obtained and appropriately served as the input parameters of GT-Power [34] for the following 1D in-cylinder process simulation. Both MATLAB/Simulink and GT-Power are widely used in engine design because of their flexibility [35,36]. …”
