Abstract

Without doubt, the simulation of processes inside the combustion engine plays a decisive role for the optimization of efficiency level and emissions of the total vehicle. In the process, the demands on the simulation are constantly increasing, with respect to accuracy as well as due to new combustion processes and the use of alternative fuels. For this purpose, combustion and combustion chamber may no longer be viewed isolated from the total system. The seamless integration of the simulation of the “cylinder” in the gas exchange simulation and finally the simulation of the entire vehicle are of decisive important, particularly for the optimization of instationary processes. For the FVV research project No. 869, the IVK at the University of Stuttgart developed a simulation tool for the total process analysis.
