Abstract

1-D numerical simulation is conducted for compression stroke of air inside a flat piston-cylinder pattern using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) and explicit time integration methods. Flow and fluid properties are calculated and represented during the whole stroke time and at different piston positions inside the cylinder. Investigations about the value of the smoothing length (h) of minimum error and optimizing the ghost particles’ position and interaction boundary conditions have been undergone. The simulation results show consistent accuracy with isentropic data in reasonable time consumption.
