Benefits of this Project

What will you do in this project?

Step 1 - Parameterization of an explicit engine model

Step 2 - Injector calibration

Step 3 - Computational models [ Heat transfer , Combustion & Emission (NOx) ]

Step 4 - Post processing in GT-POST

You will do the following in this project :

Choose a predictive CI Engine Model and calibrate it for a trade-off between fuel consumption and emission.
Tune the appropriate engine performance variables in different subsystems.
Set up two different case setups for applications with/without an external EGR assembly and run it for rated and intermediate speeds.
Post process the results in GT-POST to analyse the different engine operating variables.

Adiabatic flame temperature calculation using Python and Cantera

In this project Adiabatic Flame Temperature(AFT) calculation will be performed using coding language Python and in-build Suite of Cantera. Cantera is an open-source suite of tools for problems involving chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, and transport processes. So, the comparative analysis will be performed to compare the factors like time requirement, accuracy etc. The effect of number of carbon atoms on Adiabatic Flame Temperature will also be discussed.
