Modeling piston skirt lubrication in internal combustion engines
… reduction of the undesirable emissions from the internal combustion engines propels broader effort in auto industry to design more fuel efficient engines. One of the major focuses is the reduction of engine mechanical losses, to which the friction of the piston skirt is one important contributor. …

Modeling of Multicomponent Fuel Vaporization in Internal Combustion Engines
Finally, a preliminary study on modeling micro-explosions and flash boiling was performed. These two phenomena were modeled using a bubble-droplet system. A description was formulated to predict bubble growth and was verified using experiment data. Both the breakup due to aerodynamical force and …

Modeling of piston pin lubrication in internal combustion engines
The piston pin joins the piston and the connecting rod to transfer the linear force on the piston to rotate the crankshaft that is the eventual power outlet of the engine. The interfaces between the piston pin and the pin bore as well as the connecting rod small end are one of the most heavily …

Development of Optimisation Methodologies for the Internal Combustion Engine Airbox
The geometrical design of the airbox for an internal combustion engine has a<br/>significant effect on the pressure loss in the entire inlet tract. Due to the<br/>location of the airbox, its size and shape is usually limited as a result of the<br/>proximity to other under-bonnet features. The shape …
