A commercial vehicle’s electrical startability / Elektrisk startbarhet för tunga fordonOrmsson, Kristinn Arnar, Persson, Henrik January 2018 (has links)
In commercial vehicles, where the driver overnights with the engine turned off whilestill consuming electricity, it is important to know how much the battery can bedischarged before reliable engine starting is at risk. The vehicle’s ability to crank theengine, i.e. startability, changes with the vehicle’s ambient temperature and thebatteries state of charge. The aim of this project is therefore to test the startability ofa commercial vehicle and its cranking system’s behaviour at different ambienttemperatures and battery state of charge. Physical startability tests were planned andperformed on a commercial vehicle at different temperatures inside a climatechamber. The results of these tests show the torque of the vehicle’s powertrainincreasing with lowering temperature while the cranking system’s performancedecreases. This decrease in the cranking system’s performance is a result of thebattery’s lowering ability to supply power at lower temperatures. / I tunga fordon, där chauffören spenderar natten med avstängd motor men fortsätteratt förbruka el, är det viktigt att veta hur mycket batterierna kan urladdas innanmotorn inte kan startas. Fordonets förmåga att starta motorn, det vill säga dessstartbarhet, ändras med omgivningstemperaturen och batteriernas laddnivå. Syftetmed projektet var därför att undersöka startbarheten på ett tungt fordon samt dessstartsystems beteende vid olika omgivningstemperaturer och laddningsnivåer påbatterierna. Under projektets gång planerades samt genomfördes provstarter meddet tunga fordonet vid olika omgivningstemperaturer i en klimatkammare.Provstarterna påvisade att släpmomentet på fordonets drivlina ökade med enfallande temperatur medan startsystemets prestanda försämrades. Startsystemetsförsämrade prestanda beror huvudsakligen på batteriernas försämrade förmåga attavge effekt vid lägre temperaturer.

Knock model evaluation - Gas engineSharma, Nishchay January 2018 (has links)
Knack i en förbränningsmotor är en typ av onormal förbränning. Det är ett komplicerat fenomen som beror på flera fysiska faktorer och resulterar i högfrekventa tryckoscillationer inuti förbränningskammaren. Dessa oscillationer kan skada motorn och fenomenet hämmar motorns effektivitet. Knack kan uppstå på två sätt i en Otto-motor och detta examensarbete kommer att handla om självantändning. Självantändning, i detta fall, är när ändgasen börjar brinna utan att ha blivit påverkad av flamfronten eller gnistan från tändstiftet. Det finns flera olika matematiska modeller som i olika grader kan prediktera knackfenomenet. I detta examensarbete studeras några av de tidigare publicerade prediktionsmodellerna för knack i Otto-förbränning och modelleras för analys. Huvudsyftet med detta projekt är således att bedöma noggrannheten hos olika typer av knackmodeller. Extra fokus har lagts på empiriska korrelationsmodeller, särskilt till de som är baserade på kemisk kinetik avseende förbränningsprocessen av metan. Dessa modeller förutsäger den tid det tar för ändgasen att självantända, baserat på dess koncentration av luft och bränsle. Knackmodellerna bedöms sedan utifrån det beteende som de förutsäger över motorns driftområde och dess överensstämmelse med kända motorkalibreringsstrategier. Resultatet av knackpredikteringen för de olika knackmodellerna utvärderas och valideras i en motorsimuleringsmodell i mjukvaran AVL BOOST. BOOST-modellen kalibreras mot experimentellt uppmätta motortestdata. Baserat på resultaten från de valda knockmodellerna så blev den modell som bäst korrelerar med kända motorkalibreringsstrategier analyserad djupare. Den utvalda modellen var en ECM modell och den utvärderas ytterligare med avseende på variation i predikterad knack-parameter. Detta görs genom att modifiera två förbränningsparametrar: tändvinkel och förbränningsduration. Det visade sig att modellerna predikterade en linjär ökning då tändningen tidigareläggs och ett linjärt minskande vid längre förbränningsduration, vilket är i enlighet med motortestdata. Vidare visade det sig att variationer i tändvinkel resulterade i en högre gradient i knackpredikteringen vid högre motorbelastningar och korresponderande minskning vid lägre belastning. / Knocking is a type of abnormal combustion which depends on several physical factors and results in high frequency pressure oscillations inside the combustion chamber of a spark-ignited internal combustion engine (ICE). These oscillations can damage the engine and hamper its efficiency, which is why it is important for automakers to understand the knocking behavior so that it can be avoided during engine operation. Due to the catastrophic outcomes of knocking a lot of research has been done in the past on prediction of its occurrence. There can be several causes of knocking but when it occurs due to auto-ignition of fuel in the end-gas it’s called spark-knock. There are various mathematical models that predict the phenomenon of spark-knock. In this thesis, several of the previously published knock prediction models for heavy-duty natural-gas engine are studied and analyzed. The main objective of this project is to assess the accuracy of different types of knock prediction models. Amongst all the types of knock prediction models emphasize has been given to empirical correlation models, particularly to the ones which are based on chemical kinetics pertaining to the combustion process of methane. These are the models that claim to predict ignition delay time based on concentration of air and fuel in the unburned zone of the cylinder. The models are assessed based on the knocking behavior they represent across the engine operation range. Results pertaining to the knock prediction models are evaluated in a 1D engine simulation model using AVL BOOST. The BOOST performance prediction model is calibrated against experimentally measured engine test-cell data and the same data is used to assess the knock prediction models. The knock prediction model whose results correlate with experimental observations is analyzed further while other models are discarded. Using the validated model, variation in knock occurrence is evaluated with change in the combustion phasing. Two of the parameter that are used to define the combustion phasing are spark-advance and combustion duration. It was found that when the brake mean effective pressure is kept constant the knock prediction parameter increases linearly with increase in spark advance and decreases linearly with increase in combustion duration. The variation of knock prediction parameter with spark advance showed increasing gradient with increase in engine torque.

Study of different Exhaust Gas Recirculation Configurations and their Impact on Turbocharged Spark Ignition EnginesPitarch Berná, Rafael 13 October 2023 (has links)
[ES] Esta tesis doctoral se encuadra en el contexto de una creciente concienciación y preocupación en la sociedad por la contaminación y su efecto sobre la salud de las personas, así como la influencia de los gases de efecto invernadero en el cambio climático. En este sentido, el sector transporte no ha sido una excepción, y se ha legislado para regular tanto las emisiones contaminantes como las de efecto invernadero de manera cada vez más estricta, retando continuamente a las empresas del sector y fabricantes de motores a aumentar la eficiencia y limpieza de sus sistemas propulsivos.
Este trabajo tiene por objetivo estudiar el impacto que tienen distintos sistemas de recirculación de gases de escape (exhaust gas recirculation o EGR) en un motor de encendido provocado, de inyección directa, sobrealimentado, con distribución variable y dentro de la tendencia del downsizing. Cabe resaltar que el motor bajo estudio es un modelo sin EGR empleado actualmente en aplicaciones de transporte por carretera de turismos utilitarios, por lo que el proyecto ha estado en todo momento ligado a la actualidad del sector, y los avances y descubrimientos de los estudios aquí presentados pueden resultar de una enorme utilidad y ser empleados en aplicaciones reales.
Estos sistemas de recirculación de gases de escape pretenden aumentar la eficiencia de los motores de encendido provocado con el objetivo de reducir la desventaja que estos presentan con respecto a los motores de encendido por compresión, mientras que se mantienen los niveles de emisiones. Dicha desventaja en eficiencia radica principalmente en una menor relación de compresión del motor de encendido provocado para evitar la autoignición y en el uso del dosado estequiométrico para el correcto funcionamiento del postratamiento. / [CA] Aquesta tesi doctoral s'enquadra en el context d'una creixent conscienciació i preocupació en la societat per la contaminació i el seu efecte sobre la salut de les persones, així com la inuència dels gasos d'efecte d'hivernacle en el canvi climàtic. En aquest sentit, el transport no ha sigut una excepció, i s'ha legislat per a regular tant les emissions contaminants com les d'efecte d'hivernacle de manera cada vegada més estricta, reptant contínuament a les empreses del sector i fabricants de motors a augmentar l'eficiència dels seus sistemes propulsius. Aquest treball té per objectiu estudiar l'impacte que tenen diferents sistemes de recirculació de gasos d'escapament (exhaust gas *recirculation o EGR) en un motor d'encesa provocada, d'injecció directa, sobrealimentat, amb distribució variable i dins de la tendència del downsizing. Cal ressaltar que el motor sota estudi és un model sense EGR empleat actualment en aplicacions de transport per carretera de turismes utilitaris, per la qual cosa el projecte ha estat en tot moment lligat a l'actualitat del sector, i els avanços i descobriments dels estudis presentats poden resultar d'una enorme utilitat i ser emprats en aplicacions reals.
Aquests sistemes de recirculació de gasos d'escapament pretenen augmentar l'eficiència dels motors d'encesa provocada amb l'objectiu de reduir el desavantatge que aquests presenten respecte als motors d'encesa per compressió, mantenint els nivells d'emissions. Aquest desavantatge en eficiència radica principalment en una menor relació de compressió del motor d'encesa provocada per a evitar l'autoignició i en l'ús del dosatge estequiomètric per al correcte funcionament del postractament / [EN] This PhD-Thesis is framed in the context of a growing awareness and concern in society about pollution and its effect on people's health, as well as the influence of greenhouse gases on climate change. In this sense, transportation has not been an exception, and legislation has been
reated to regulate both polluting emissions and greenhouse gases in an increasingly strict manner, continually challenging companies in the sector and engine manufacturers to increase efficiency and cleanliness of their propulsive systems.
The objective of this work is to study the impact that different exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems have on a spark ignition, direct injection, turbocharged engine, with a variable timing and within the downsizing trend. It should be noted that the engine under study is mass-produced without EGR and is currently used in passenger utility cars, so the project has been always linked to current events in the sector, and the advances and discoveries of the studies presented here can be useful in real applications.
These exhaust gas recirculation systems aim to increase the efficiency of spark ignition engines, reducing the disadvantage they present with respect to compression ignition engines, while maintaining emission levels. Said disadvantage in efficiency lies mainly in a lower compression ratio in order to avoid autoignition and in the use of stoichiometric operation for the optimal operation of the aftertreatment system. / Pitarch Berná, R.

Development of Acoustic Simulation Methods for Exhaust Systems / Utveckling av akustiska simuleringsmetoder för avgassystemFriberg Femling, Christin January 2021 (has links)
Noise pollution is a growing concern due to its harmfulness to human health. Heavy vehicles powered by internal combustion engines stands for a major part of the environmental noise, why noise reduction is an increasing priority in enginve development. Within this study, an optimization problem is posed in order to minimize acoustic output without impairing the engine's overall performance. In our quest to diversify out noise reduction strategies, innovative ways of investigating this complex subject are essential. Here, we use simulations to investigate the possibility to reduce noise by component settings, as well as methods available to achieve that. Regarding the methods, the results indicates that a built in optimization tool within the simulation software used works well, despite the high complexity of the problem. A significant noise reduction is achieved when adjusting the settings of two of the parameters studied. This is a first attempt to tackle noise reduction in internal combustion engines by component settings. From the promising results, further improvements are expected as the simulation methods are refined and more components can be investigated accurately. / Bullerreducering är en allt viktigare fråga i samhället idag på grund av den negativa påverkan oljud kan ha på vår hälsa. Tunga fordon som driva av förbränningsmotorer står för den största delen av buller i vår omgivning, varför bullerreducering är ett alltmer prioriterat område vid utveckling av dessa motorer och fordon. I denna studie arbetar vi utifrån ett optimeringsproblem för att minimera ljudnivåerna utan att försämra motorns övergripande prestanda. I vår strävan att diversifiera strategier för bullerreducering behövs innovativa sätt att undersöka detta komplexa problem. Här används ett simuleringsverktyg för att undersöka möjligheterna att reducera ljudnivåerna genom att justera komponenternas beskaffenhet. Metoderna för att uppnå detta undersöks och utvärderas också. Resultaten pekar på ett inbyggt optimeringsverktyg i det simuleringsprogram som används hanterar optimeringsproblemet väl, trots dess höga komplexitet. En signifikant bullerreducering uppnås genom justering av inställningar hos två av de komponenter som undersökts. Detta är ett första försök att hantera bullerreducering inom förbränningsmotorer genom simulering av olika komponentinställningar. Med tanke på de lovande resultaten från denna första undersökning förväntas ytterligare förbättringar om simuleringsmodellen kan förfinas och fler komponenter kan undersökas.

Impact of Different e-Fuels Types on Light Duty Compression Ignition Engine Performance, Emissions and CO2 Life Cycle AnalysisGuzmán Mendoza, María Gabriela 07 March 2024 (has links)
[ES] Los combustibles bajos en carbono (LCF) se evalúan como un sustituto adecuado de los combustibles pesados fósiles actuales para un motor de combustión interna de encendido por compresión (CI ICE) en términos de rendimiento del motor, emisiones contaminantes e impacto ambiental. Los combustibles se evalúan de acuerdo con su factibilidad para sustituir los combustibles actuales del mercado con las alternativas LCF. A través de estudios directos y calibración optimizada específica del combustible, se aprovechan las características de bajas emisiones de los LCF para lograr menos emisiones contaminantes sin sacrificar la eficiencia del motor. La calibración se logra mediante la realización de un diseño de experimentos (DOE) a partir del cual se obtienen modelos para cada combustible, para posteriormente optimizar para bajas emisiones de NOx-hollín. Por último, se compara el impacto tanto de la calibración drop-in como de la calibración optimizada en un análisis de ciclo de vida (LCA) que tiene en cuenta la huella de CO2, así como otras categorías de impacto como la acidificación terrestre, la formación de partículas, el consumo de agua y la formación de ozono.
En general, se encontró que los LCF probados pueden ser reemplazos adecuados para los CI ICE tanto en las calibraciones directas como en las optimizadas (aunque con algunas consideraciones de hardware), donde se puede alcanzar un rendimiento del motor similar a las líneas de base diésel actuales con importantes reducciones de contaminantes como NOx y hollín. Y adicionalmente, se comprobó que la proporción de renovabilidad del combustible es altamente beneficiosa para la reducción del impacto ambiental del combustible, donde los combustibles completamente renovables (como el LCD100 probado) podrían tener huellas de CO2 por kilómetro similares a las de los vehículos eléctricos en Europa, asumiendo que las materias primas y la energía para la producción de combustible provienen de fuentes renovables. / [CA] Els combustibles baixos en carboni (LCF) s'avaluen com un reemplaçament adequat dels combustibles pesats fòssils actuals per a un motor de combustió interna d'encesa per compressió (CI ICE) en termes de rendiment del motor, emissions contaminants i impacte ambiental. Els combustibles s'avaluen segons la seva viabilitat per substituir els combustibles actuals del mercat per les alternatives LCF. Mitjançant estudis d'abandonament i calibratge optimitzat específic del combustible, s'exploten les característiques de baixes emissions dels LCF per aconseguir emissions menys contaminants sense sacrificar l'eficiència del motor. El calibratge s'aconsegueix mitjançant la realització d'un disseny d'experiments (DOE) a partir del qual s'obtenen models per a cada combustible, per posteriorment optimitzar per a baixes emissions de NOx-sutge. Finalment, es compara l'impacte tant de la caiguda com del calibratge optimitzat en una anàlisi de cicle de vida (LCA) que considera la petjada de CO2, així com altres categories d'impacte com l'acidificació terrestre, la formació de partícules en suspensió, el consum d'aigua i la formació d'ozó.
En general, es va trobar que els LCF provats poden ser reemplaçaments adequats per als CI ICE tant en les calibracions d'entrada com optimitzades (encara que amb algunes consideracions de maquinari), on es pot assolir un rendiment del motor similar a les línies de base dièsel actuals amb reduccions importants de contaminants com el NOx i el sutge. I addicionalment, es va comprovar que la proporció de renovable del combustible és altament beneficiosa per a la reducció de l'impacte ambiental del combustible, on els combustibles completament renovables (com el provat LCD100) podrien tenir petjades de CO2 per quilòmetre similars a les dels vehicles elèctrics a Europa, assumint que les matèries primeres i l'energia per a la producció de combustible provenen de fonts renovables. / [EN] Low carbon fuels (LCFs) are evaluated as a suitable replacement for current fossil heavy fuels for a compression ignition internal combustion engine (CI ICE) in terms of engine performance, pollutant emissions and environmental impact. The fuels are evaluated according to their feasibility to substitute current market fuels with the LCF alternatives. Through drop-in studies and fuel-specific optimized calibration, the low emission characteristics of the LCFs to achieve fewer polluting emissions without sacrificing the engine efficiency are exploited. The calibration is achieved by the realization of a design of experiments (DOE) from which models are obtained for each fuel, to be later optimized for low NOx-soot emissions. Finally, the impact of both the drop-in and optimized calibration are compared in a life cycle analysis (LCA) that considers the CO2 footprint, as well as other impact categories such as terrestrial acidification, particulate matter formation, water consumption and ozone formation.
Overall, it was found that the tested LCFs can be suitable replacements for CI ICEs in both the drop-in and optimized calibrations (albeit with some hardware considerations), where engine performance similar to current diesel baselines can be reached with important reductions in pollutants like NOx and soot. And additionally, it was verified that the renewability proportion of the fuel is highly beneficial to the reduction of the environmental impact of the fuel, where completely renewable fuels (like the tested LCD100) could have CO2 footprints by kilometer similar to those of electric vehicles in Europe, assuming that raw materials and energy for the fuel production come from renewable sources. / This doctoral thesis has been partially supported by the Conselleria d'Innovació,

[pt] Diante da crise ambiental dos dias atuais, desenvolver tecnologias de
menor impacto negativo e promover ações de eficiência energética tornam-se
imprescindíveis para conciliar produtividade e redução de emissões. Neste contexto, aprofundar-se no estudo de motores de combustão interna modelando
seu funcionamento se apresenta como uma ferramenta bastante interessante,
seja por ensaios em bancada ou modelagens. O presente trabalho buscou desenvolver modelos usando diferentes arquiteturas de Redes Neurais Artificiais
(RNAs) para obter parâmetros de performance de Motores de Combustão Interna movidos a gás natural e a misturas de diesel – biodiesel – etanol. Para
o primeiro caso, foram coletados dados de 5 motores visando a avaliação da
eficiência térmica, consumo específico, temperatura de exaustão, e para o segundo a base de dados contempla um motor, sobre o qual foram avaliados, em
acréscimo aos parâmetros mencionados, os coeficientes de compressão e expansão da politrópica, o consumo específico de etanol, a taxa máxima de liberação
de calor e a pressão máxima. Para as redes que apresentaram melhores resultados, foram construídas superfícies de resposta a fim de analisar os modelos
sobre a perspectiva do fenômeno que representam. Foi possível obter modelos
com boa representatividade dos parâmetros mencionados (obtendo valores de
R2 acima de 70 por cento para dados de treino e teste), exceto para os dois coeficientes
da politrópica. Neste caso, embora os erros fossem relativamente satisfatórios,
as superfícies de resposta atingiram extremos que não condizem com a teoria
relacionada. Por outro lado, foi possível construir um modelo para a eficiência
térmica a partir do consumo e abertura da válvula, com R2 de 99 por cento para treino
e teste. Isto se explica pelo fato de que a primeira variável de entrada é parte
da equação que calcula o parâmetro em questão, e a segunda está ligada à
relação ar-combustível da mistura. / [en] Faced with the current environmental crisis, developing technologies with
less negative impact and promoting energy efficiency actions are essential to
reconcile productivity and emissions reduction. In this context, the study of internal combustion engines by modeling their operation presents itself as a very
interesting tool, whether by bench tests or modeling. The present work aimed
to develop models using different architectures of Artificial Neural Networks
(ANNs) to obtain performance parameters of Internal Combustion Engines
powered by natural gas and blends of diesel – biodiesel – ethanol. For the
first case, 5 engines were considered to evaluate the thermal efficiency, specific consumption, exhaust temperature, and for the second case, the database
includes an engine, on which, in addition to the mentioned parameters, the
compression and expansion polytropic coefficients were evaluated, the specific
consumption of ethanol, the maximum rate of heat release and the maximum
pressure. For the networks that presented better results, response surfaces were
made in order to analyze the models from the perspective of the phenomenon
they represent. It was possible to obtain models with good representation of
the mentioned parameters (obtaining R2 values above 70 percent for training and
test data), except for the two polytropic coefficients. In this case, although the
errors were relatively satisfactory, the response surfaces reached extremes that
do not agree with the related theory. On the other hand, it was possible to
build a model for thermal efficiency from consumption and throttle, with R2 of
99 percent for training and testing. This is explained by the fact that the first input
variable is part of the equation that calculates this parameter, and the second
is linked to the air-fuel ratio of the mixture.

Entwicklung eines variablen Turbolader-Verdichters für schwere Nutzfahrzeugmotoren / Development of a turbocharger compressor with variable geometry for heavy duty truck enginesWöhr, Michael 19 December 2016 (has links) (PDF)
Die Entwicklung schwerer Nutzfahrzeugmotoren unterliegt dem Zielkonflikt zwischen möglichst geringen Betriebskosten, hoher Leistung und der Einhaltung von Emissionsvorschriften. Bezüglich der Auslegung der Verdichterstufe des Abgasturboladers resultiert dies in einem Kompromiss zwischen Kennfeldbreite und den Wirkungsgraden im Nennpunkt sowie im Hauptfahrbereich. In der vorliegenden wissenschaftlichen Publikation wird untersucht, ob mit Hilfe einer geometrischen Verstellbarkeit des Verdichters eine bessere Lösung für das anspruchsvolle Anforderungsprofil gefunden werden kann. Das Ziel ist eine Reduktion des Kraftstoffverbrauchs eines 12,8l NFZ-Dieselmotors im schweren Fernverkehr, ohne dass hierbei Abstriche bezüglich weiterer Leistungsmerkmale der Verdichterstufe in Kauf genommen werden müssen.
In einem ersten Schritt wird hierzu mit Hilfe der Auswertung von Lastkollektivdaten der für den Kraftstoffverbrauch relevante Betriebsbereich der Basis-Verdichterstufe identifiziert. Dieser befindet sich bei vergleichsweise geringen Massenströmen und hohen Totaldruckverhältnissen in der Nähe der Volllast-Schlucklinie im Verdichterkennfeld. Die Auswertung von ein- und dreidimensionalen Strömungssimulationen führt zur Erkenntnis, dass die hohen Tangentialgeschwindigkeiten im unbeschaufelten Diffusor ausschlagge- bend sind für die Strömungsverluste innerhalb der Verdichterstufe im Hauptfahrbereich. Eine Möglichkeit die Geschwindigkeitskomponente in Umfangsrichtung zu reduzieren, ist die Verwendung eines beschaufelten Diffusors. Zur Überprüfung des Potentials werden im Rahmen einer Parameterstudie 47 unterschiedliche Nachleitgitter im Diffusor der Basis-Verdichterstufe am Heißgasprüfstand untersucht. Es stellt sich heraus, dass durch den Einsatz einer Nachleitbeschaufelung der Verdichterwirkungsgrad um bis zu 8 Prozentpunkte verbessert werden kann, die Kennfeldbreite jedoch nicht ausreicht, um die motorischen Anforderungen bezüglich der Pumpstabilität oder der Bremsleistung zu erfüllen.
Resultierend aus diesen Erkenntnissen werden drei variable Verdichter entwickelt, mit dem Ziel, den Wirkungsgradvorteil beschaufelter Diffusoren mittels einer geometrischen Verstellbarkeit für den schweren Nutzfahrzeugmotor nutzbar zu machen. Die Bewertung hinsichtlich der Ziele und Anforderungen erfolgt anhand von Versuchen am Heißgas- sowie Vollmotorenprüfstand.
Die Variabilität mit der geringsten Komplexität ist die Kombination aus starrem Nachleitgitter und Schubumluftventil. Das System zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass Strömungsabrisse im Bereich des Nachleitgitters durch Aktivieren des Schubumluftventils und somit Öffnen eines Rezirkulationskanals im Verdichtergehäuse in pumpkritischen Situationen vermieden werden können. Der Verzicht auf bewegliche Teile im Diffusor resultiert in der höchsten Reduktion des Kraftstoffverbrauchs um 0,6 − 1,4% im Hauptfahrbereich.
Der Doppeldiffusor besitzt zwei separate Strömungskanäle unterschiedlicher Geometrie, die im Betrieb durch eine axiale Verschiebung mit Druckluft aktiviert werden können. Dieses völlig neuartige Konzept ermöglicht es, die Auslegungsziele auf zwei Diffusoren aufzuteilen und somit für jede Kennfeldhälfte die jeweils optimale Schaufelgeometrie auszuwählen. Mit dieser Variabilität kann die Einspritzmenge im Hauptfahrbereich um 0,5 − 0,8 Prozent gesenkt werden.
Das System mit der höchsten Komplexität ist der Verdichter mit rotierbarer Nachleitbeschaufelung. Über einen elektronischen Steller können die Anstellwinkel und Halsquerschnitte in jedem Betriebspunkt den Anströmbedingungen angepasst werden, um den jeweils bestmöglichen Wirkungsgrad zu erhalten. Aufgrund der anspruchsvollen geometrischen Zwangsbedingungen bei der Auswahl der Schaufelgeometrie besitzt der Dreh- schaufler mit 0,3−0,6% das geringste Potential zur Verbesserung der Kraftstoffsparsamkeit, erzielt jedoch das beste Ergebnis bezüglich der Bremsleistung und der Pumpstabilität. / Reducing the total costs of ownership, achieving the rated engine power and compliance with exhaust-emission legislation are competing goals regarding the development of heavy duty engines. This leads to demanding requirements for the aerodynamic design of the turbocharger compressor stage such as high efficiencies at various operating points and a broad map width. The aim of the present doctoral thesis is to investigate the potential of a compressor with variable geometry in order to obtain a better compromise between efficiency and compressor map width for the purpose of increasing fuel economy without sacrifices concerning the rated power, engine brake performance or surge stability.
In a first step, the evaluation of load cycles yields operating points on which the fuel consumption is heavily dependent. Results of 1D- and 3D fluid flow simulations show that the high tangential velocity in the vaneless diffusor is the main cause for the reduction of compressor efficiency in the main driving range. A parameter study containing 47 different geometries is conducted at a hot gas test rig in order to examine the potential of vaned diffusers regarding the reduction of the tangential velocity component. It can be seen that by introducing diffuser vanes compressor efficiency can be increased by up to 8 percent. The narrow map width however prevents the use of a fixed geometry for heavy duty engines. Based on those results three variable geometry compressors are developed with the goal of maintaining the efficiency benefit of vaned diffusers while increasing the map width by adjustable geometric features. The evaluation of the variable compressor systems is based on hot gas and engine test bench measurements.
The variable compressor system with the lowest complexity utilizes a recirculation valve in the compressor housing in combination with a fixed geometry vaned diffuser in order to improve the surge margin for a short period of time at a sudden load drop. The abandonment of functional gaps in the diffuser leads to the highest improvement of fuel economy of 0,6 − 1,4% in the main driving range.
The compressor with stacked diffuser vanes has two separate flow channels in the diffuser. During engine operation only one vaned diffuser geometry is active. The axial movement is performed via pressure chambers in the compressor and bearing housing. The two diffuser geometries are either optimized for high or low mass flows. This way the fuel consumption in the main driving range can be reduced by 0,5 − 0,8%.
The compressor with pivoting vanes in the diffuser has the highest complexity of all systems. With the aid of an electronic actuator the vane inlet angle and throat area can be adjusted to the impeller outlet flow conditions at each operating point. As a consequence the pivoting vanes compressor achieves the best results regarding engine brake performance and surge stability. The fuel economy in the main driving range can be improved by 0,3 − 0,6%. Higher benefits are prevented by demanding geometric constraints in order to ensure the rotatability of the vanes and to prevent vibrations of the impeller blades.

Analysis and valorization of new thermal management systems for a vehicle powertrain application / Etude et valorisation de nouveaux systèmes de gestion thermique d’un groupe motopropulseur automobileSara, Hanna 20 September 2017 (has links)
La gestion thermique est un des moyens de réduction de la consommation spécifique d’un véhicule. Avec le réchauffement climatique, les normes de dépollution deviennent de plus en plus sévères et les constructeurs automobiles cherchent à améliorer le rendement des véhicules. Le but de ces travaux de recherche est de valoriser, par simulation numérique, les nouveaux systèmes de gestion thermique en fonction du cycle d’homologation et de la température ambiante.Un modèle de simulation 1-D du moteur et de ses circuits de refroidissement et de lubrification ont été développés en utilisant le logiciel GT-Suite. Quatre cycles d’homologation ont été choisis : NEDC, WLTC, AH et AU. De plus, un nouveau cycle a été proposé durant cette étude. Le bilan d’énergie effectué pendant les différentes phases des cycles souligne l’importance du stockage et de la récupération d’énergie.Le stockage d’énergie dans un volume eau et/ou d’huile abouti à l’amélioration de la montée en température des deux fluides. Plusieurs configurations ont été proposées comme, par exemple, un carter d’huile multifonctionnel.Ainsi, une réduction importante de la consommation en carburant est obtenue.La récupération de chaleur au sein des gaz d’échappement est ensuite mise en oeuvre. L’échangeur est caractérisé sur un banc d’essais puis modélisé. Le réchauffement indirect et direct d’huile abouti à une réduction importante des frottements et de la consommation. Une configuration est proposée afin de contrôler la température maximale de l’huile.Finalement, différentes stratégies comme : le type d’huile, l’isolation du moteur, une température de régulation plus élevée etc… ont été étudiées et valorisées. / Thermal management proved itself in improving the fuel efficiency of the engine. Nowadays, automotive companies tend to apply different strategies to answer the greenhouse severe laws. The PhD aim is to valorize and analyze the different thermal management strategies with numerical simulations over different driving cycles and ambient conditions. A 1-D simulation code of the engine and its hydraulic circuits were built using GT-Suite. Four known driving cycles were chosen: NEDC, WLTC, AH and AU. In addition, an in-house developed driving cycle was introduced. An energy balance made over the different stages of the driving cycles underlines the importance of the heat storage and the exhaust heat recovery strategies.Heat recovery was applied over the coolant and the oil at ambient temperatures of -7°C and 20°C. Hot coolant storage and hot oil storage led to improve the coolant and lubricant initial temperatures respectively. Different configurations (total of 7) were proposed and studied. A multifunctional oil sump was introduced. Important fuel consumption savings were obtained. Exhaust heat recovery was then valorized. Heat exchanger was characterized over experimental setup then added to the engine model. Indirect and direct heating of the lubricant as well as both strategies back to back were tested. Remarkable friction reduction and fuel savings were obtained. Special configuration was proposed to control the lubricant high temperature instead of the bypass on the exhaust line. The study ended by valorizing minor strategies as the oil’s grade influence, the engine insulation, high temperature set point …

[en] COMBUSTION, EFFICIENCY AND PERFORMANCE COMPUTATIONAL MODELING FOR OTTO CYCLE ENGINES AND VEHICLES FOCUSED ON FUEL COMPOSITION AND PROPERTIES / [pt] MODELAGEM COMPUTACIONAL DOS PARÂMETROS DE COMBUSTÃO, EFICIÊNCIA E DESEMPENHO DE MOTORES E VEÍCULOS DO CICLO OTTO EM FUNÇÃO DA COMPOSIÇÃO E PROPRIEDADES DOS COMBUSTÍVEISANTONIO CARLOS SCARDINI VILLELA 05 January 2018 (has links)
[pt] Os modelos computacionais comerciais atualmente disponíveis, em geral, não são satisfatoriamente sensíveis a variações na composição e nas propriedades dos combustíveis, não sendo capazes de predizer os seus efeitos no desempenho dos motores e veículos com precisão. Dessa forma, o desenvolvimento de combustíveis é fortemente dependente de experimentos em motores e veículos, demandando significativos custos e prazos de execução. A motivação do presente desenvolvimento reside em fornecer contribuições inéditas para a modelagem computacional de motores e veículos. O foco do trabalho está nos efeitos da composição e das propriedades dos combustíveis sobre os parâmetros de combustão, eficiência e desempenho, buscando a otimização do processo de desenvolvimento de combustíveis. Foi estabelecida metodologia para a modelagem computacional das curvas de pressão no interior do cilindro de um motor do ciclo Otto. Os valores de torque, pressão máxima e ângulo de pressão máxima, obtidos a partir das curvas de pressão simuladas apresentaram, em geral, variações percentuais de até 3 por cento, 5 por cento e 2 graus, respectivamente, em relação aos experimentos. Foi desenvolvida metodologia para a modelagem computacional da autonomia urbana em veículos leves do ciclo Otto, com resultados simulados situados dentro da faixa de incerteza do experimento, de 1,5 por cento. Foram estabelecidas metodologias para modelagem computacional dos tempos de retomada de velocidade e de parâmetros de desempenho de veículos em condições de velocidade constante. A maioria dos resultados simulados se enquadrou na faixa de 3 por cento de diferença em relação aos experimentos. / [en] In general, engine s and vehicle s simulation softwares currently available in the market, are not satisfactorily sensitive to composition and fuel properties variations, being unable to accurately predict effects on overall performance. Thus, fuel development process is strongly dependent on engines and vehicles experiments, requiring high costs and long times. This work aims to provide inedited contributions to engines and vehicles computational modeling, focusing on fuel composition and properties on its combustion parameters, efficiency and performance, as well as, to optimize fuel development process. It was established a methodology for an Otto cycle engine in cylinder pressure curves simulation. Torque, maximum pressure and maximum pressure crank angle obtained from the simulated pressure curves presented, in general, percentage changes up to 3 percent, 5percent and 2 degrees, respectively, compared to experiments. It was developed a methodology for Otto cycle light-duty vehicles urban autonomy, with simulated results within the experimental uncertainty range, of 1.5 percent. Methods for speed recovery times and vehicle performance parameters at constant speed simulations were developed. Most simulated results were within the range of 3 percent difference compared to experiments.
