Based on thermodynamic model, a proper valve timing was chosen to achieve maximum power at high engine speed. A kinematic model was used to compute final cam profiles and CAD model was created.

Within this body of work several series of experiments will investigate the nature of complex combustion in an experimental single-cylinder engine emulating a modern passenger car size compression-ignition (CI) engine. Regimes of single, piloted single and piloted split-main injections will be tested and compared in terms of combustion characteristics, specific emission output and cyclic behaviour to determine how increased injection complexity affects the emissions and output of the modern CI engine. Through these tests, the effect of fuel-line stationary waves will be demonstrated and investigated, showing conclusively that optimised engine calibration is essential to account for injector-generated waves in any multiple injection scenario. This data will then be confirmed with a dedicated analysis using an injector rate measuring tube. The tests will then be expanded to include examination into the behaviour of injector needle-lift standard deviation over its operating cycle, in-cylinder pressure standard deviation behaviour and trends over the combustion cycle as well as IMEP variability. Through these tests a novel method to detect start of combustion will be proposed and compared to conventional methods. Low temperature combustion (LTC) will be tested under incremental injection complexity. Tests will be optimised for combustion phasing and injection pressure, with a view to analysis of emissions, output and cyclic behaviour to establish whether the knowledge gained about conventional combustion holds true under LTC. Optimization of engine parameters will be shown to result in easier to implement LTC regimes with superior emissions characteristics. Finally, LTC tests will be expanded to include 30% and 50% by volume gas-to-liquid fuel (GTL) blends in order to determine whether fuel characteristics further influence emissions, output and cyclic behaviour in LTC through complex injection regimes. How GTL-blend ratio affects trends in emissions and cyclic behaviour will also be examined and compared to conventional diesel fuel.

The aim of this master`s thesis was to design a single-cylinder test engine for measuring of the friction forces between the piston group and the cylinder liner. Main engine parameters are based on the common production engine. A floating liner device was chosen for a friction forces measurement. It was necessary to solve an attachment and sealing of the floating liner. Stress-strain analysis of the floating liner has been done. Next step was to re-design a production crankshaft also with a connected balancing devices for single-cylinder engine. Powertrain was seated in a completely new units. Finally the engine was completed and mounted on a stand.

This master thesis is part of a bigger project issued by AVL with the purpose to design a high pressure compression ignition fuel system for their single cylinder test cell at their facility in Södertälje. Typically compression-ignition fuel tests are being run within an operating pressure range of 500-2400 bar, but this system has to be able to run with pressures up to 3500 bar. The project was intended to be carried out by two participants where this master thesis covers the evaluation of how fuel consumption rates shall be measured in the system described above as well as how the fuel shall be conditioned. The selected concept for measuring fuel consumption rate was based on measuring the mass flow on the low-pressure side of the system with a Coriolis flowmeter. The chosen temperature sensor for monitoring the temperature on the high-pressure side was a K-type thermocouple which would be directly connected to the fuel rail in the system. A bleeder was selected on the basis that it had been used in one of AVL's old test cells. A heat exchanger could not be chosen. However a rough estimation of the capacity needed for a heat exchanger was calculated for future reference. The methodology used to develop a concept was based on the engineering project process taught to students at Karlstad University. First a project plan was made followed by a solution-independently expressed product specification including a specification of requirements and QFD-matrix. Several concepts were generated for measuring the fuel consumption by evaluating different measuring principles, available components, possible positions of the components within the system and combinations with different fuel supply concepts. Less extensive methods were used for the remaining tasks in the detailed engineering phase of the project. The concepts were compared using Pugh's analysis and a concept was selected in collaboration with AVL. The majority of the objectives for this master thesis could be successfully carried out. The documentation and drawings requested by the client, manufacturing of the system, implementation and validation into the test cell could not be done due to lack of time. This, along with the selection of a heat exchanger and low-pressure thermocouple was left for future work.

Ce travail est une contribution à la simulation numérique d'écoulements turbulents autour de corps non profilés. Après avoir précisé les ingrédients numériques et les modèles de turbulence utilisés dans nos simulations, nous présentons une étude sur l'évaluation des effets de la procédure dynamique des modèles de sous-maille dans un modèle VMS-LES et une approche hybride RANS/VMS-LES. Des problèmes d'écoulements autour d'un cylindre seul et en tandem sont considérés. Nous étudions ensuite le comportement de modèles de turbulence hybrides pour la simulation d'écoulements en régime sous-critique autour d'un cylindre circulaire. Le calcul de l'écoulement autour d'un cylindre de section rectangulaire par l'approche VMS-LES est aussi présenté. Enfin, dans une dernière partie, après avoir fait une revue des travaux importants sur les schémas d'avancement en temps multirate, nous proposons une nouvelle approche explicite multirate par agglomération de volumes finis que nous appliquons à des calculs d'écoulements turbulents complexes en utilisant un modèle de turbulence hybride. / This work is a contribution to the numerical simulation of turbulent flows around bluff bodies. After specifying the numerical ingredients and the turbulence models used in our simulations, we present a study on the impact of the dynamic sub-grid scale modeling in VMS-LES model and a RANS/VMS-LES hybrid turbulence approach. Simulations of flows around a cylinder and a tandem are performed. Next, we assess the behaviour of some hybrid turbulence models for the simulation of flows around a circular cylinder in the subcritical regime. The computation of the flow around a rectangular cylinder with the VMS-LES approach is also presented. At last, after a review of some important works on multirate time advancing schemes, we propose a new volume-agglomeration explicit multirate approach that is applied to the computation of complex turbulent flows by a hybrid turbulence model.
