Abstract:

The presence of gas in engine liquid cooling systems can have severe consequences for engine efficiency and life. The presence of stagnant, trapped gases will result in cooling system hotspots, causing gallery wall degradation through thermal stresses, fatigue and eventual cracking. The presence of entrained, transient gases in the coolant flow will act to reduce its bulk thermal properties and the performance of the system s coolant pump; critically the liquid flow rate, which will severely affect heat transfer throughout the engine and its ancillaries. The hold-up of gas in the pump s impell

Abstract:

Engine Cooling losses constitutes about 20% of the injected fuel energy in a modern heavy duty truck diesel engine. The objective of this Master Thesis Project is to investigate flow boiling cooling as a thermally efficient method for waste heat recovery as well as a good solution for precision cooling. First, an engine heat transfer model was implemented on GT-suite software in order to estimate heat fluxes within the engine cylinder. Liners being less thermally constrained than the cylinder head, flow boiling cooling was then investigated in the liner’s water jackets. A more adapted heat tra

Abstract:

In gas turbines some parts are exposed to combustion gases with temperatures well above the melting temperature of the material. Therefore, various cooling techniques are utilized in order to protect the parts exposed to these hot gases. One such technique, film cooling, is a common and well established way to protect the exposed parts. Film cooling involves the ejection of cold air on the surface of the parts that are to be protected, thus creating a film of colder air between the surface and the hot gases. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a way of calculating fluid flow, and can be used

A combustion engine generates a lot of heat which need to be cooled to prevent damages to the engine and the surrounding parts. If the cooling system can not provide enough cooling to keep the engine in a well defined range of temperatures performance and durability will decrease and emissions increase. It is also important that the cooling system do not over-cool the engine, since this may result in rough running, increased engine friction and an overall negative performance.

The high complexity of vehicle front-end design, arising from considerations of aerodynamics, safety and styling, causes the airflow velocity profile at the radiator face to be highly distorted, leading to potentially reduced airflow volume for heat dissipation.

Abstract:

Fuel consumption reduction is one of the main challenges in the automotiveindustry due to its economical and environmental impacts as well as legalregulations. While fuel consumption reduction is important for all vehicles,it has larger benefits for commercial ones due to their long operational timesand much higher fuel consumption. Optimal control of multiple energy buffers within the vehicle proves aneffective approach for reducing energy consumption. Energy is temporarilystored in a buffer when its cost is small and released when it is relativelyexpensive. An example of an energy buffer is

Abstract:

This master’s thesis deals with creating a real-time simulation model of an aircraft piston engine with emphasis on heating and cooling of the engine cylinders. First part of this thesis focuses on characteristics of aircraft engines and differences with regular automotive engines. The next chapter describes the dependence of engine parameters on atmospheric conditions. The description of the real time model itself follows next. The results of the simulation model are presented and analysed at the end of this thesis.

Abstract:

Tato práce je zaměřena na systém vodního vstřikování a způsoby zajištění dostatečného množství potřebné kapaliny pro správný chod tohoto systému. Jedním zajímavým a nezávislým řešením je využití odpadních produktů motoru, a to vodní páry produkované spalováním paliva. Pro zajištění kondenzace je nutné zchlazení výfukových plynů pod rosný bod páry, což lze zajistit opatřením výfukového potrubí chladiči. Vzniklý kondenzát je pak potřeba efektivně oddělit od proudu plynů a zachytit. Návrh takovéhoto systému vychází z reálně naměřených dat a jeho následným ověřením pomocí CFD simulace.
