Abstract:
A contribution is made to the task of constructing a global model for the IC (internal combustion) engine. A robust submodel is formulated for the dynamics of the IC engine, where-in the engine is viewed as a system with input given by cylinder pressure and output corresponding to crankshaft angular acceleration and crankshaft torque. The formulation is well suited to closed-loop engine control and transmission control applications. In the model, cylinder pressure is deterministically related to net engine torque through the geometry and dynamics of the reciprocating assembly. The relationship between net engine torque and crankshaft angular acceleration is explain in terms of a passive second-order electrical circuit model with constant parameters. Experimental results confirm the validity of the model over a wide range of engine operating conditions, including transient conditions. It is concluded that the model provides a powerful tool for estimating average and instantaneous net engine torque based on an inexpensive noncontacting measurement of crankshaft acceleration, thus providing access to one of the primary engine performance variables.<>
