TL;DR: In this article, the development and evaluation of a mathematical model for a 4-stroke, single-cylinder, spark ignition engine is described, where the assumptions that were made in the model are also described.
Abstract: This paper deals with the development and evaluation of a mathematical model for a 4-stroke, single-cylinder, spark ignition engine. The first part describes the development of the mathematical model and the computer program. The assumptions that were made in the model are also described. The instruments that were developed for the evaluation of the model are included in the second part, which also contains the evaluation of the results obtained from the model. /GMRL/

TL;DR: In this article, a linear spark was used as the source of the ultrasound pulse and two quartz crystals downstream and upstream of the source were used as receivers to measure the flow properties at the intake and exhaust of an engine.
Abstract: A new ultrasonic meter is described which uses a linear spark as the source of the ultrasound pulse. Two quartz crystals downstream and upstream of the source act as receivers. The time taken by the pulse to reach the receivers is determined by the velocity and temperature of the gases. The flow properties at the intake and exhaust of an engine are measured using this meter.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the features of turbulent flow in an engine during the intake and compression processes and the influence this turbulent field has on the combustion process and make an attempt to relate conventional turbulence theory to engine turbulence measurements wherever possible.
