Modelling the effects of combustion and turbulence on near-wall temperature gradients in the cylinders of spark ignition engines:

R.J. Jenkin, +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an existing quasi-dimensional engine cycle model has been modified to enable accurate prediction of the near-wall temperature field in the burned and unburned gases by dividing the cylinder into a number of discrete masses, each of which has a unique state.

Modelling near wall temperature gradients in "motored" spark ignition engines

R.J. Jenkin, +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new type of model was developed to predict near wall temperature gradients and local instantaneous heat fluxes in a "motored" engine, where the unburnt charge in an existing "phenomenological" model is divided into a number of discrete masses which are assumed to be stacked adjacent to the cylinder surfaces.

Predicting the Onset of End-Gas Autoignition with a Quasi-Dimensional Spark Ignition Engine Model

R.J. Jenkin, +2 more
- 01 Oct 1997 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a quasi-dimensional simulation of combustion in a spark-ignition engine has been coupled with a chemical kinetic model for the low temperature, preflame reactions of hydrocarbon fuel and air mixtures.

Mathematical modelling of spark ignition engine combustion

E.H. James
TL;DR: In this paper, a classification of model types is constructed on this basis and the mathematical procedures involved in their development are outlined, and the most detailed, multi-dimensional (MDM) models have the potential to resolve the turbulent, temperature and species fluctuations both spatially and temporally.

Experimental and theoretical investigation of turbulent burning model for internal combustion engines

Norman C. Blizard, +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for describing turbulent flame propagation in internal combustion engines is presented, and an approximate analytic method for determining the equilibrium state of the burned gases is also presented.

The Prediction of Ignition Delay and Combustion Intervals for a Homogeneous Charge, Spark Ignition Engine

S. D. Hires, +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed correlations for the ignition delay and combustion energy release intervals in a homogeneous charge, spark-ignited engine with four fundamental quantities: turbulent integral scale, turbulent micro-scale, turbulent intensity, and laminar flame speed.
