I tried to simulate combustion in a Diesel engine with FLUENT.
I want to determine combustion characteristics in compression ignition (CI) engine and parameter such as in-cylinder pressure, temperature, heat release rate, etc.
I appreciate if someone help me find out following issue:
(1) How can I get detailed engine dimensions?
(2) How to incorporate crank angle and valve timing information to FLUENT (Not in ANSYS-IC engine module)
(3) Which models should activate to solve this problem in FLUENT?
Dear Mehul, (1) you should import in Fluent the geometry from usual CAD software, (3) CFD module associated to Chemical Reaction module; I think that diesel engine simulations are better using CHEMKIN or KIVA, see attached paper. Gianluca
Thanks Gianluca for your support, Attached paper is really helpful to understand different available automization model in KIVA.
Since I am very familiar with FLUENT, With reference to your paper I found similar model available in FLUENT which termed as DPM (Discrete phase model). Within DPM we can create injection mechanism for ICE & can incorporate crank angle, injection rate, nozzle diameter and other data.
Thanks
Dear Yasin, I am new with GT-Power , can you help me to explore GT-power by mean of any supporting documents or tutorials.
