if i want to add 2 cylinders to existing mode i dont know how to connect 2 elements together by the blue lines, where can i find it?
and for the chrarcteristic of 6 cylinder engine ,i have only the information of engine stroke ,bore…., but i dont have enough information about the valves size ,valve timings, pipe length and thickness,
Can i keep the same parameters of pipes and heat transfer values and boudary conditions and turbine stator and rotors size and mass flowrates of 4 cylinders existing model To make a model 6 cylinder s 4 stroke diesel engine with twin- entry turbine turbocharger?

To add more cylinders to an engine you have two possibilities:
1. Right-click on the engine element and select “Create new cylinder”. This option generate a new cylinder associte to the engine.
2. Go to the engine toolbar drag a cylinder element and drop on the WAMer desktop. You will see that the new element created has a ? symbol at the right bottom corner. That means the cylinder is not associated to any engine. You can do the association draging the cylinder and droping on the engine. You will see the ? symbol disappear.

With respect to the engine information, they depend on you want to calculate. You can take these parameters as default, but take into account that the original engine is a 4 cylinders and 4 stroke engine and probably the parameters will be the corrects. You can estimate the information that you don’t dispose but be coherent.
