Modelling and simulation of the piston combustion engine cooling system

Description

Article in Zeszyty Naukowe Akademii Morskiej w Gdyni, nr 83, sierpień 2014. — pp. 110–120.In the article, the concepts of the model and purposes of modelling were presented. Various aspects of graphical modelling was discussed, with particular attention to the bond graph. In the main part of the paper, was presented model’s description of a piston internal combustion engine cooling system, in the form of a bond graph. It was shown, that modelling using bond graph requires the presentation of the system in the form of a graph, routing state equations describing the model of, then their solution. On the other hand, Lab AMESim simulation software for modelling and analysis of multidisciplinary mechatronic systems, which, after entering the relevant data, allows direct simulation. Next a simulation model using block diagrams in the software AMESim was developed. In the next section, simulations were conducted implementing the software, which enable the appointment of the courses characteristics of temperature, pressure and coolant pump capacity at selected points of the system.IntroductionModelling the cooling using of the bond graphModelling of cooling system in the software AMESimThe test stand to research the piston combustion engine cooling systemThe model test stand for testing cooling systemsHeat exchange model in the AMESim softwareSimulation resultsConclusionReferences
