Journal ArticleDOI
Multiphase CFD–CHT optimization of the cooling jacket and FEM analysis of the engine head of a V6 diesel engine
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical methodology aiming at analyzing and optimizing an internal combustion engine water cooling jacket, with particular emphasis on the assessment of the fatigue strength of the engine head, is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A modified thermal wall function for the estimation of gas-to-wall heat fluxes in CFD in-cylinder simulations of high performance spark-ignition engines
TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative heat transfer model is proposed by the authors and tested on current production high specific power DISI turbocharged engines operated at full load and high revving speed, as demonstrated by their application to the well-known GM pancake engine test case.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-Eddy simulation analysis of spark configuration effect on cycle-to-cycle variability of combustion and knock:
TL;DR: In this paper, the cycle-to-cycle variability is numerically simulated for high-speed, full-load operation of a turbocharged gasoline direct injection engine with a large-Eddy simulation.

Journal ArticleDOI
Hierarchical 1D/3D Approach for the Development of a Turbulent Combustion Model Applied to a VVA Turbocharged Engine. Part I: Turbulence Model
TL;DR: In this paper, a 0D (ie homogeneous and isotropic) phenomenological model belonging to the K-k model family is presented in detail The model is validated against in-cylinder results provided by 3D-CFD analyses carried out.
