The present work is a further validation and analysis of a global combustion model developed and integrated in the original version of the KIVA-II code. The results obtained from the simulations are discussed comparing them to the experimental data relevant to a DI unit of large size displacement: Caterpillar-3406 heavy-duty truck engine. Some fundamental combustion parameters are analysed and discussed in relation to their sensitivity to the engine size. In particular the results coming from the Caterpillar simulations are compared with ones obtained in the correlated work [1] on a small size engine: Ruggerini RP-170.

Abstract

The present work is a further validation and analysis of a global combustion model developed and integrated in the original version of the KIVA-II code. The results obtained from the simulations are discussed comparing them to the experimental data relevant to a DI unit of large size displacement: Caterpillar-3406 heavy-duty truck engine. Some fundamental combustion parameters are analysed and discussed in relation to their sensitivity to the engine size. In particular the results coming from the Caterpillar simulations are compared with ones obtained in the correlated work [1] on a small size engine: Ruggerini RP-170.
