Estudo numérico do escoamento ao redor de um cilindro oscilando. / Numerical investigation of the flow around an oscillating cylinder.

Eduardo Mendonça Raupp 23 April 2007 (has links)
O objetivo deste projeto de mestrado é estudar o escoamento bidimensional ao redor de um cilindro isolado oscilando forçadamente e apoiado em base elástica através de simulações computacionais utilizando o Método de Elementos Espectrais. Este tópico suscita grande interesse no meio tecnológico, pois esta configuração aparece com bastante freqüência em estruturas marítimas, como os \"risers\" de produção e umbilicais de plataformas de exploração de petróleo, e também no meio acadêmico, uma vez que se trata do estudo de fenômenos complexos originados do escoamento ao redor de uma geometria simples: cilindro circular. A pesquisa tem seu principal enfoque na avaliação da utilização do método espectral de elementos finitos para solução do escoamento bidimensional no limite do regime de esteira laminar, Re < ou = 200 , ao redor de um cilindro oscilando forçadamente e apoiado em base elástica. As simulações do escoamento ao redor de um cilindro oscilando forçadamente são realizadas com duas amplitudes de oscilação do cilindro: 0.15D e 0.40D . Para cada amplitude são utilizadas dez freqüências de oscilação: 0.8 s f , 0.85 s f , 0.9 s f , 0.95 s f , 0.975 s f , 0.9875 s f , 1.025 s f , 1.05 s f , 1.075 s f e 1.1 s f ; onde D é o diâmetro do cilindro e s f é a freqüência de desprendimento de vórtices para cilindro fixo. O objetivo destas simulações é a tentativa de observação do fenômeno da mudança brusca do ângulo de fase entre a força transversal à direção da corrente e o deslocamento do cilindro, \"phase-jump\", obtendo, deste modo, uma base para comparação com trabalhos já existentes sobre o mesmo tema, avaliando o método numérico utilizado para o caso do escoamento ao redor de um cilindro oscilando. As simulações do escoamento ao redor de um cilindro apoiado em base elástica (livre para oscilar) foram feitas com apenas um grau de liberdade: a direção transversal ao escoamento incidente (eixo y no caso estudado). O resultado mais importante deste tipo de configuração, do ponto de vista prático (projetos de \"risers\", e outras estruturas cilíndricas), é a curva max A / D versus r V , isto, devido à dependência da vida útil destas estruturas à máxima amplitude de oscilação. Para reproduzir a curva max A / D versus r V , foram escolhidos os seguintes valores de velocidade reduzida: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, e 10.0. / The goal of this work is to study through numerical simulations using the Spectral Elements Method the two-dimensional the flow past a single circular cylinder that is either in simple harmonic cross-flow oscillation or elastically mounted. This is a very important topic for the technological environment because this configuration is identical to offshore structures, like risers of oil production platform and is also important to scientific environment due to the study of complex phenomena originated from the flow past a very simple geometry: a circular cylinder. The focus of this research is to evaluate the use of Spectral Element Method for solution of two-dimensional flow past a circular cylinder that is either in simple harmonic cross-flow oscillation or elastically mounted, at the laminar wake limit, Re < or = 200 . Two oscillation amplitudes were employed for the forced oscillations simulations: 0.15D e 0.40D . And, for each amplitude, were selected ten frequencies: 0.8 s f , 0.85 s f , 0.9 s f , 0.95 s f , 0.975 s f , 0.9875 s f , 1.025 s f , 1.05 s f , 1.075 s f e 1.1 s f ; where D is the cylinder diameter and s f is the vortex shedding frequency. The phase jump phenomenon, e.g., the fast change of phase angle, is observed and compared with existents works evaluating the Spectral Elements Method for forced oscillations cases. In the elastically mounted simulations the most important result, for the practical point of view (risers design), is the max A / D x r V curve, e.g., maximum amplitude versus velocity ratio, due to the relation of risers lifetime with maximum oscillation amplitude. To build the max A / D x r V curve were selected the follow values of velocity ratio: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, e 10.0.

Cluster-Slack Retention Characteristics: A Study of the NTFS Filesystem

Blacher, Zak January 2010 (has links)
This paper explores the statistical properties of microfragment recovery techniques used on NTFS filesystems in the use of digital forensics. A microfragment is the remnant file-data existing in the cluster slack after this file has been overwritten. The total amount of cluster slack is related to the size distribution of the overwriting files as well as to the size of cluster. Experiments have been performed by varying the size distributions of the overwriting files as well as the cluster sizes of the partition. These results are then compared with existing analytical models. / FIVES

Experimental Study of Flow Past a Circular Cylinder with a Flexible Splitter Plate

Shukla, Sanjay Kumar January 2017 (has links) (PDF)
A circular cylinder is a geometrically simple bluff body that occurs in various practical applications. As with any bluff body, it exhibits large drag forces and a strong fluctuating lift force, both related to the strong shedding of vortices from the body, which is commonly referred to as the Karman Street. Rigid splitter plates in the wake of the cylinder are known to suppress shedding from the body, and thereby result in reduced drag and fluctuating lift forces, the latter being important to reduce flow-induced vibrations of the body. In the present work, the flow past a cylinder with a downstream flexible splitter plate/flap is studied, the length (L) and flexural rigidity (EI) of the flap being the main parameters besides the flow speed (U). Two flaps length to cylinder diameter ratios (L/D), namely, a short (L/D = 2) and a long (L/D = 5) flaps have been studied, the shorter one being smaller than the recirculation zone, while the larger is longer than the recirculation zone. In both these cases, the flexural rigidity (EI) and the flow speed are systematically varied. In all cases, the flaps motion are directly visualized, the lift and drag forces are measured with a force balance, and the wake velocity field is measured using PIV. In both the long and short flaps cases, the flexural rigidity (EI) of the flexible flap has been varied over a large range of values, and it has been found that the results for flaps tip motion and forces collapse well when plotted with a non-dimensional bending stiffness (K∗), which is defined as K∗ = EI/(1/2ρU2L3). This collapse occurs across flexible flaps with different values of EI, as long as Re > 5000. The collapse is not found to be good for Re < 5000. This difference appears to be related to the large reduction in fluctuating lift for a bare cylinder in the Re range between approximately 1600 and 5000 discussed by Norberg[41]. In the long flap case, the existence of two types of periodic modes is found within the range of K∗ values from 5 × 10−6 to 1 × 10−1 studied. The first one corresponds to a local peak in amplitude at K∗ ≈ 1.5 × 10−3 that is referred to as mode I, and the second that occurs at low values of K∗ (K∗ < 3 × 10−5) that is referred to as mode II. The fluctuating lift is found to be minimum for the mode I oscillation. The mean drag is also found to reach a broad minimum that starts at K∗ corresponding to mode I and continues to be at the same low level of approximately 65% of the bare cylinder drag for all higher K∗ values, representing an approximately 35% decrease in mean drag of the cylinder. The wake measurements also show significant changes with K∗. The formation length (lf /D) obtained from the closure point of the mean separation bubble is found to continuously increase with K∗, reaching values of approximately 2.6 at mode I and thereafter only small increases are seen as K∗ is increased to large values corresponding to the rigid splitter plate case, consistent with the observed variations in the mean drag. The stream wise and cross-stream turbulent intensities and the Reynolds shear stress are all found to be strikingly lower in the mode I case compared to the bare cylinder case, and more importantly, these values are even lower than the rigid splitter plate case. This is consistent with the shedding of weaker vortices and with the minimum in fluctuating lift found in the mode I case. The results for this flap length show that the mode I flap oscillation, corresponding to K∗ ≈ 1.5 × 10−3, may be useful to reduce lift, drag, velocity fluctuations in the wake and the strength of the shed vortices. In particular, the wake fluctuations corresponding to this mode are found to be significantly lower than the rigid splitter plate case. In the short flap case (L/D = 2), it is found that there exists a richer set of flapping modes compared to the long flap, with these modes being dependent on K∗. At low K∗ values, the flap exhibits large amplitude symmetric flap motion that is referred to as mode A, while clearly asymmetric flaps motion are seen at higher K∗ values corresponding to modes B and C. Mode B corresponds to asymmetric large amplitude flapping motion, while mode C is also asymmetric with the flap clearly deflected off to one side, but having small oscillation amplitudes. At even higher K∗ values, corresponding to mode D, symmetric flaps motion are again seen with the amplitudes being smaller than in mode A. Apart from the flap tip amplitude, the non-dimensional frequency of flap tip motion also changes as the flap changes modes. In this case, there is a minimum in the fluctuating lift corresponding to mode B and C oscillation. The mean drag is found to reach a minimum again corresponding to mode C, which corresponds to an approximately 35% decrease in mean drag of the cylinder. In this case, there is a large increase in fluctuating lift (approximately 150% of the bare cylinder case) at higher values of K∗ that appears to correspond to a “resonant” condition between the structural natural frequency of the flexible splitter plate/flap and the wake shedding frequency of the bare cylinder. The wake measurements show that the formation length (lf /D) is the largest for mode C (deflected flap state), which is consistent with the observed minimum in mean drag observed for this mode. The stream wise and cross-stream turbulent intensities and the Reynolds shear stress are all found to be strikingly lower in the mode C case compared to the bare cylinder case, with the values for the Reynolds shear stress being lower than the rigid splitter plate case. This is again consistent with the minimum in fluctuating lift found in the mode C case. The results for this flap length show that the mode C flap oscillation, corresponding to K∗ ≈ 5 × 10−2 that correspond to a deflected flap state with very small oscillation may be useful to reduce lift, drag, velocity fluctuations in the wake and the strength of the shed vortices. The results from the present study show that the flexible flap/splitter plate down-stream of the cylinder exhibits a variety of mode shapes depending on the effective bending rigidity of the flap K∗ for both the long and short flaps cases. The forces and the wake are also found to be strongly dependent on this parameter K∗ with the wake fluctuations, lift fluctuations and the drag being very effectively suppressed at an intermediate value of K∗ that is found to be dependent on the plate/flap length.

Wave loading on bodies in the free surface using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH)

Omidvar, Pourya January 2010 (has links)
This thesis investigates wave loading on bodies in the free surface using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH). This includes wave loading on fixed bodies, waves generated by heaving bodies in still water and the heave response of a body in waves, representing a wave energy device. SPH is a flexible Lagrangian technique for CFD simulations, which in principle applies to steep and breaking waves without special treatment allowing us to simulate highly nonlinear and potentially violent flows encountered in a real sea. However few detailed tests have been undertaken even with small amplitude waves.This research uses the open-source SPH code SPHysics. First two forms of SPH formulation, standard SPH with artificial viscosity and SPH-Arbitrary Lagrange Euler (ALE) with a Riemann solver, are used to simulate progressive waves in a 2-D tank. The SPH-ALE formulation with a symplectic time integration scheme and cubic spline kernel is found to model progressive waves with negligible dissipation whereas with the standard SPH formulation waves decay markedly along the tank. We then consider two well-defined test cases in two dimensions: progressive waves interacting with a fixed cylinder and waves generated by a heaving semi-immersed cylinder. To reduce computer time in a simple manner a variable particle mass distribution is tested with fine resolution near the body and coarse resolution further away, while maintaining a uniform kernel size. A mass ratio of 1:4 proved effective but increasing to 1:16 caused particle clumping and instability. For wave loading on a half-submerged cylinder the agreement with the experimental data of Dixon et al. (1979) for the root mean square force is within 2%. For more submerged cases, the results show some discrepancy, but this was also found with other modelling approaches. For the heaving cylinder, SPH results for the far field wave amplitude and vertical force on the cylinder show good agreement with the data of Yu and Ursell (1961). The variable mass distribution leads to a computer run time speedup of nearly 200% in these cases on a single CPU. The results of the vertical force and wave amplitude are shown to be quite sensitive to the value of the slope limiter in the Riemann solver for the 2-D heaving cylinder problem. A heaving 2-D wedge or 3-D cone whose oscillatory vertical motion is prescribed as the elevation of a focused wave group is a precise test case for numerical free-surface schemes. We consider two forms of repulsive boundary condition (Monaghan & Kos, 1999, and Rogers et al., 2008) and particle boundary force (Kajtar and Monaghan, 2009) for the 2-D wedge case, comparing the result with the experimental data of Drake et al. (2009). The repulsive boundary condition was more effective than the particle boundary force method. Variable particle mass with different kernel sizes was then tested for 2-D problems for mass ratios of 1:4, 1:16 and 1:4:16 with satisfactory results without particle clumping and instability. For the 3-D cone case, SPH reproduces the experimental results very closely for the lower frequency tested where there is no separation from the bottom surface of the body but for the higher frequencies the magnitudes of force minima were underestimated. The mass ratios of 1:8 and 1:8:27 in two and three nested regions are tested for the 3-D cone problem where a computer run time speedup of nearly 500% is achieved on 16 processors for the mass ratio of 1:8.Finally, the floating body of a heaving wave energy device known as the Manchester Bobber is modelled in extreme waves without power take-off. The results for a single float are in approximate agreement with the experiment.

Estudo numérico e experimental do escoamento sobre um rotor eólico Savonius em canal aerodinâmico com alta razão de bloqueio

Akwa, João Vicente January 2014 (has links)
Neste trabalho, são inicialmente discutidas as dificuldades referentes à obtenção de resultados numéricos para a operação de uma turbina Savonius independentes do grau de discretização, tamanho de domínio de cálculo e de máximo tempo físico simulado. Também são relatadas as divergências entre as metodologias numéricas e experimentais adotadas por diversos autores, que dificultam análises e comparações dos resultados obtidos por meio dessas metodologias com os resultados próprios obtidos. Devido a esses fatos, no presente trabalho, uma série de procedimentos experimentais e numéricos são realizados para efetuar análises do escoamento sobre uma turbina eólica Savonius. Nos experimentos em canal aerodinâmico, perfis de velocidade e parâmetros da turbulência são obtidos pela técnica de anemometria de fio quente. Medições com o uso de tubos de Pitot e manômetros eletrônicos são efetuadas para avaliar a variação da pressão e os perfis de velocidade média em posições selecionadas. Além de dados para análise, informações úteis para uso como condições de contorno nas simulações numéricas também são obtidas. Os fenômenos são reproduzidos através de simulações numéricas pelo Método de Volumes Finitos, que solucionam as equações da continuidade, de Navier-Stokes com médias de Reynolds e do modelo de turbulência k-ω SST. Análises experimentais e numéricas considerando o escoamento sobre um cilindro, que mantém semelhanças com o escoamento sobre o rotor, também são realizadas. Simulações numéricas do escoamento sobre o cilindro são efetuadas, fornecendo resultados representativos do escoamento real, quando geometrias tridimensionais são aplicadas na modelagem numérica. Nas simulações do escoamento sobre o rotor Savonius em condição estática, resultados representativos do escoamento real são obtidos com o uso de uma modelagem que leva em consideração a rugosidade das pás do rotor, estacionado na posição angular de 90°. Para posições angulares menores, não se obteve uma boa concordância entre os resultados experimentais e numéricos. A realização deste trabalho fornece informações úteis para a análise do fenômeno e tem potencial para contribuir com futuros trabalhos desse tema. / This research work initially presents a discussion about the difficulties related to obtaining numerical results for the operation of a turbine Savonius independent of the degree of discretization, calculation domain size and maximum physical time of the simulation. The differences between the numerical and experimental methodologies adopted by various authors difficult the analysis and comparisons of the results obtained through these methods with the results obtained by the methodology. Due to these facts, in this research work, a series of experimental and numerical procedures are performed to conduct analyzes of flow over a Savonius wind turbine. In the experiments on aerodynamic channel, velocity and turbulence profiles parameters are obtained by the technique of hot wire anemometry. Measurements using Pitot tubes and electronic manometers are made to evaluate the variation of pressure and mean velocity profiles at selected positions. In addition to data analysis, useful information for use as boundary conditions in the numerical simulations are also obtained. The phenomena are reproduced through numerical simulations by Finite Volume Method, that solve the equations of continuity, Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations and the equation of the turbulence model k-ω SST. Experimental and numerical analyzes considering the flow over a cylinder, which holds similarities with the flow over the rotor, are also performed. Numerical simulations of the flow over the cylinder are made, providing results representative of the actual flow when three-dimensional geometries are applied in numerical modeling. In flow simulations over the Savonius rotor in static condition, at 90°, representative results of the actual flow are obtained using a model that takes into account the roughness of the rotor blades. For smaller angular positions a good agreement between experimental and numerical results was not obtained. This work provides useful information for the analysis of the phenomenon and has the potential to contribute to future work on this theme.

RADIATION HEAT TRANSFER IN DIRECT-INJECTION DIESEL ENGINES

Villalta Lara, David 04 January 2019 (has links)
En las últimas décadas, la investigación en motores de combustión ha estado enfocada fundamentalmente en la reducción de las emisiones contaminantes y la eficiencia de los mismos. Estos hechos junto con un aumento de la concienciación sobre el cambio climático han llevado a un aumento en la importancia de la eficiencia térmica respecto a otros criterios en el diseño de motores de combustión interna (MCIA). Para alcanzar este objetivo, existen diferentes estrategias a aplicar. En concreto, la transferencia de calor a las paredes de la cámara de combustión puede ser considerada como una de las principales fuentes de disminución de la eficiencia indicada. En particular, en los modernos motores diésel de inyección directa, la emisión de radiación de las partículas de hollín puede constituir un componente importante de las pérdidas de eficiencia. En este contexto se enmarca el objetivo principal de la tesis: contribuir a la comprensión de la transferencia de calor por radiación en la combustión diésel de inyección directa junto con la mejora del conocimiento en el proceso de formación-oxidación de hollín. El trabajo se ha basado tanto en resultados experimentales mediante la aplicación de técnicas ópticas en diversas tipologías de motor como en resultados simulados a partir de modelos unidimensionales validados. En la primera parte de resultados experimentales, se ha evaluado la cantidad de energía por radiación respecto a la energía química del combustible mediante la aplicación de una sonda optoelectrónica (basada en la técnica del 2-Colores) tanto en un motor óptico DI como en motor poli-cilíndrico DI de producción. En este estudio se han obtenido valores de intensidad espectral emitida por el hollín y posteriormente, la radiación total emitida por las partículas de hollín en todo el espectro. Como se ha citado anteriormente, las partículas de hollín son las principales responsables de la transferencia de calor por radiación, además de uno de los principales agentes contaminantes emitidos por los motores diésel. Las emisiones de hollín son el resultado de dos procesos antagonistas: la formación y oxidación del hollín. Los mecanismos de formación de hollín se discuten extensamente en la literatura. Sin embargo, existen deficiencias en cuanto al conocimiento de la oxidación de hollín. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de esta sección ha sido evaluar el impacto del proceso de mezcla y la temperatura del gas sobre el proceso de oxidación de hollín durante la última parte de la combustión bajo condiciones reales de operación. Finalmente, y en base a los resultados y conocimientos adquiridos hasta el momento, se ha desarrollado un modelo capaz de predecir las pérdidas de calor por radiación para un chorro diésel. El modelo está basado en tres sub-modelos: modelo de chorro, el cual analiza y caracteriza la estructura interna del chorro en términos de mezcla y combustión en un proceso de inyección con resolución temporal y espacial. Un modelo de hollín, en el que los resultados se justifican en función de procesos de formación y oxidación del hollín. La cohesión de estos dos sub-modelos se utiliza para obtener los valores de entrada al modelo de radiación, con el que se obtiene los valores de transferencia de calor por radiación para una llama diésel. / En els últims anys, la recerca en motors de combustió ha estat focalitzada principalment en la reducció de les emissions contaminants i la millora de la eficiència. Aquests fets afegits al fet del augment de la conscienciació del canvi climàtic han impulsat el interés per incrementar la eficiència tèrmica per damunt de altres criteris en el disseny de motors de combustió interna alternatius (MCIA). Per aconseguir aquest objectiu, existixen diferents estratègies a aplicar. Concretament, la transferència de calor a les parets de la càmera de combustió pot ser considerada un dels principals focs de reducció de eficiència indicada. En particular, en els moderns motors dièsel de injecció directa, la emissió de radiació de les partícules de sutja pot constituir un component important de les pèrdues de eficiència. En aquest context s'emmarca el objectiu principal de la tesis: contribuir a la comprensió de la transferència de calor per radiació en la combustió dièsel de injecció directa i la millora del coneixement del procés de formació-oxidació de la sutja. El treball esta basat tant en resultats experimentals mediant l'aplicació de tècniques òptiques en diverses tipologies de motor com en resultants simulats a partir de models unidimensionals validats. En la primera part dels resultats experimentals, s'ha avaluat la quantitat de energia per radiació respecte a la energia química del combustible mediant la aplicació de una sonda optoelectrònica (basada en la tècnica del 2-Colors) tant en un motor òptic DI com en un motor poli-cilíndric DI de producció en serie. En aquest estudi s'han obtingut valors de intensitat espectral emesa per la sutja i posteriorment, la radiació total emesa per les partícules de sutja en tot el espectre. Com s'ha citat amb anterioritat, les partícules de sutja son les principals responsables de la transferència de calor per radiació, a més de un del principals agents contaminants emès per els motors dièsel. Les emissions de sutja son el resultat de dos processos antagonistes: la formació i la oxidació de sutja. Els mecanismes de formació de sutja es discuteixen àmpliament en la literatura. No obstant això, existeixen deficiències pel que fa al coneixement de l'oxidació de sutja. Per tant, l'objectiu d'aquesta secció ha sigut avaluar l'impacte del procés de mescla i la temperatura del gas sobre el procés d'oxidació de sutja durant l'última part de la combustió sota condicions reals d'operació. Finalment, i en base als resultats i coneixements adquirits fins aquest moment, s'ha desenvolupat un model que permet predir les perdudes de calor però radiació per a un raig dièsel. El model esta basat en tres sub-models: model de raig, el qual analitza i caracteritza la estructura interna del raig en termes de mescla i combustió en un procés de injecció amb resolució temporal i espacial. Un model de sutja, en el qual els resultats es justifiquen en funció del procés de formació i oxidació de la sutja. La cohesió d'aquests dos sub-models s'utilitza per obtindre els valors d'entrada al model de radiació, amb el que s'obté els valors de transferència de calor per radiació per a una flama dièsel. / In the last two decades engine research has been mainly focused on reducing pollutant emissions and increasing efficiency. These facts together with growing awareness about the impacts of climate change are leading to an increase in the importance of thermal efficiency over other criteria in the design of internal combustion engines (ICE). To achieve the objective, there are different strategies to apply. The heat transfer to the combustion chamber walls can be considered as one of the main sources of indicated efficiency diminution. In particular, in modern direct-injection diesel engines, the radiation emission from soot particles can constitute a significant component of the efficiency losses. In this context, the main objective of the thesis is framed: to contribute to the understanding of the radiation heat transfer in DI diesel combustion together with the improvement of the knowledge in the soot formation-oxidation processes. The work has been based on experimental results through the optical technique application in different types of engine and on simulated results from validated one-dimensional models. In the first part of experimental results, the amount of energy lost to soot radiation relative to the input fuel chemical energy has been evaluated by means of the optoelectronic probe application (based on the 2-Color technique) in both an optical engine DI and a production 4-cylinder DI engine. In this study, the values of soot spectral intensity emitted have been obtained and later, the total radiation emitted by the soot particles in the whole spectrum. As mentioned above, soot particles are the main responsible for the radiation heat transfer, in addition to one of the important concern in meeting emissions regulations. Soot emissions are the result of two competing processes: soot formation and soot oxidation. Mechanisms of soot formation are discussed extensively in the literature. However, there are deficiencies in the knowledge of soot oxidation. Therefore, the objective of this section has been to evaluate the impact of mixing process and bulk gas temperature on late-cycle soot oxidation process under real operating conditions. Finally, based on the results and knowledge acquired, a model able to predict heat losses by radiation for a spray diesel has been developed. The model is based on three sub-models: spray model, which analyzes and characterizes the internal spray structure in terms of mixing and combustion process with temporal and spatial resolution. A soot model, in which the results have been justified according to soot formation and oxidation processes. The link of these two sub-models has been used to obtain the input values to the radiation model, which the radiation heat transfer values for a diesel flame are obtained. / Villalta Lara, D. (2018).

Benchmarking, Characterization and Tuning of Shell EcoMarathon Prototype Powertrain

Griess, Eric J 01 March 2015 (has links)
With the automotive industry ever striving to push the limits of fuel efficiency, the Shell EcoMarathon offers a glimpse into this energy conserving mindset by challenging engineering students around the world to design and build ultra-efficient vehicles to compete regionally. This requires synchronization of engineering fields to ensure that the vehicle and powertrain system work in parallel to achieve similar goals. The goal for Cal Poly – San Luis Obispo’s EcoMarathon vehicle for the 2015 competition is to analyze the unique operating mode that the powertrain undergoes during competition and improve their current package to increase fuel efficiency. In this study, fuel delivery, ignition timing and engine temperature are experimentally varied to observe trends in steady state fuel consumption. A developmental simulation is then implemented with these trends to analyze potential differences in transient and steady state tuning targets. The engine is then tuned to finalized tuning targets and performance compared with benchmark values.
