  • in reply to: modelling of si engine #503

    Traditionally spark ignition engines work with a relative fuel to air ratio of 1 (near the stoichiometric).
    I don’t understand the second question.
    Related with the wiebe, you must provide the operating conditions (fuel mass, air mass and engine speed) of the engine for each wiebe. If you give only one wiebe these parameters won’t be used. In case that you give more than than 2 wiebes the model will interpolate between them taking account the operating conditions of the wiebes and the operating conditions of the point that is being simulated.

    The usual value must be 1. But if you want to increase or reduce the heat transfer you can modify them.

    in reply to: duct roughness?? #501

    It is the typical roughness of the steel.

    in reply to: how to decide the mesh size?? #500

    Try to put 5 nodes per duct minimum. Then the mesh size will depends on the length of the pipe.

    in reply to: How to add throttle valve?? #499

    Then a simple discharge coefficient could be enough. You can change the value for each simulation

    in reply to: How to add throttle valve?? #497

    A throttle valve can be modelled by a simple discharger coefficient. Do you want to control it during the simulation or it will have a fixed value?

    in reply to: Heat transfer coefficients #477

    The values for the gas exchange period are internally defined (C1=6.18+0.417Cu/Cm). You must provide only the values for the rest of the period.

    in reply to: how to define the injection system ? #496

    The coefficients are used to build the injection rate (g/s).
    PCR = Rail pressure (bar)
    n = engine speed (rpm)
    Coefficients A: a (g/s^2) represents the positive slope of the curve at the beginning
    a=A1 * PCR + A0
    Coefficients B: b (g/s) represents the maximum injection rate.
    b=B1 * PCR + B0
    Coefficients C: c (g/s^2) represents the negative slope of the curve at the end
    c=C1 * PCR + C0
    Coefficients D: can be used to shift the pulse and modify the start of injection
    SOI = SOP + (D1* PCR + D2) * (6 * n)

    ACT is an alternative. If you use, you cannot impose heat release law. Regarding your data it has no sense an injection pulse with 0 % of mass. 0.5 + 1 is different to 100%. In openwam, the angle for combustion top dead centre is equal to 0. I will check the meaning of the coefficients later. I don’t have the information available in this moment.

    in reply to: how to define the injection system ? #491

    In the injection pulse tab you can press the button + in order to add a new injection pulse. The information that you must provide is the start of injection and the percentage of fuel mass injected in the pulse. The mass injected by all pulses must sum 100%.

    The coefficients that you show are used to build the shape of the injection rate but I need check the exact meaning of each coefficient because I don’t remember. We usually impose the heat release rate and this capability is not commonly used.

    in reply to: how to get the formula in the Openwam Manual #489

    The formulas are writen in latex, but the parser doesn’t work. We are working in a new manual. In this moment if you don’t understand any equation you can copy the latex code and paste in an online latex editor like this http://www.sciweavers.org/free-online-latex-equation-editor

    in reply to: how to model a 3-times injection #490

    In this moment it is not possible. The combustion model isn’t very elaborate now and we are working in it. If you want emulate a three injection system, you can use the four wiebes combustion model in order to reproduce each injection pulse.

    in reply to: hydraulic model #488

    Sorry, but the model is developed to solve compresible flow not hydraulic calucations.

    in reply to: how can I open the result data after simulation #487

    The code will generate 2 files (***AVG.dat and ***INS.dat). They are ASCII files (Colums separated by tabs) and can be opened with Excel, Matlab, etc …
