In this project, you will setup the case for Diesel engine for different piston bowls i.e Open-W and Omega piston using CONVERGE CFD Software. You will be looking for core technical details such as spray penetration length, comparing HIROY SOOT and NOx emissions, flame propagation etc.
Step 1 - Geometry manipulation
Step 2 - Computational mesh setup
Step 3 - Apply Boundary Conditions and Run the Simulation
In this project, you will work on a CAT3410 diesel engine having different piston bowl shapes i.e Open-W and Omega piston. You will do the following in this project,
In this project, you will be
setting up the case for Diesel Engine CAT3410 from scratch i.e creating a
sector out of 360° full geometry, providing boundary
conditions, setting up turbulence model, spray model, and combustion model in
Converge CFD software. You will be making use of
Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) technique to capture the flow physics accurately
and then running this heavy case on multiple cores (i.e parallel processing) in
command line window (CYGWIN) and finally post processing the results in
PARAVIEW where you will be looking for the core technical details like spray
penetration length, flame propagation, comparing HIROY SOOT and NOx for Open-W
piston and Omega piston. You will also be doing some pen and paper calculations
to calculate the thermal efficiency and based on above studies, you will make a
conclusion which piston is giving the best performance. Also, you will
understand how you can improve the performance of the one which is not the best
comparatively.
