Despite the increasing interest in multidimensional combustion engine simulation from researchers and industry, the field of application has been restricted to stationary operating points for turbocharged engines. Andreas Kchele presents a 3D-CFD approach to extend the simulation into the transient regime, enabling the detailed analysis of phenomena during changes in engine operating point. The approach is validated by means of a virtual hot gas test bench and experiments on a two-cylinder engine.

About the AuthorAndreas Kchele was research associate at the Research Institute of Automotive Engineering and Vehicle Engines (FKFS) in Stuttgart, Germany, focusing on multidimensional engine simulation. After obtaining his PhD from Prof. Dr.-Ing. M. Bargende, he continues to work in the virtual engine design with emphasis on combustion process development.
