Week 9: Project 1 - Surface preparation and Boundary Flagging (PFI)

AIM: Surface preparation and boundary flagging of port fuel injection engine.

OBJECTIVE:

  • Bondary flagging
  • surface preparation

INRODUCTION:

  • PFI system replaced carburetter in cars because of their efficiency and lower maintenance requirements.
  • In port fuel injection (PFI) or multiport fuel injection (MPFI) fuel is injected into the intake port of each combustion chamber via a injector.
  • With PFI, gasoline is sprayed into the intake manifold, wher it mixes with air and then is sucked down into the cylinders.

Exhaust valve angle boundary set up

Piston boundary set up

Temperature of different engine components are as follows:

  • Piston Temp. =450 k
  • liner temp. = 450k
  • Cylinder temp. = 450k
  • Spark plug temp. = 550k
  • spark plug terminal temp. =600k
  • Exhaust port temp. = 500k
  • Exhaust outflow temp. = 800k
  • Exhaust outflow pressure = 1 Bar
  • Exhaust valve top temperature =525k
  • Exhaust valve angle temp. = 525k
  • Exhaust valve bottom temp. = 525k
  • Intake port-1 temp. = 425k
  • Intake port-2 tep. = 425k
  • Inflow pressure = 1Bar
  • Inflow temperature = 363k
  • inflow species =air
  • Intake valve top,angle and bottom temp. = 480k
