Guided industry project
Emission characterization on a CAT3410 engine
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.

What will you do in this project?
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,
- Using the provided CAD geometry and data file, you will be creating a sector in Converge CFD software.
- Setup the case in Converge CFD software.
- Run the simulation in parallel on command line window (CYGWIN).
- Visualize the results in PARAVIEW, make some hand calculations and conclude which piston is giving the best performance.
Benefits of this Project
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.The project is an advanced level project
- This project is great for undergraduate students (4th year), M.Tech or MS students.
- If you are a working professional, this project will be helpful to learn CFD for I.C Engines.
Pre-requisites
- Must be comfortable with CONVERGE.
- Need basic background in CFD and Combustion.
