This course will focus on the simulation of turbocharged IC engines. It has been designed for automotive engineers who already have experience using GT to simulate engines, want to learn how to model turbochargers and techniques that improve the speed and results of models. The class will include interactive work in GT using a model provided by GTI.
Modeling turbocharged engines using GT (also covered in our Engine Modeling training)
- Modeling of turbochargers
- Map fitting and extrapolation
- Intercooling methods: simple, semi-predictive and predictive
- Convergence
- Transients
Control of a wastegate or VG rack to meet a desired target (pressure, torque, BMEP, etc)
Other potential turbocharging topics (to be decided by the participants)
- Matching turbochargers to engines using TurboMapMatch
- Using mean value cylinders to study advanced turbocharging concepts (two-stage, turbocompounding, e-boost, etc.)
- CompressorSimple and TurbineSimple (no map data needed)
- Calibration of controls when more than one is present (e.g., wastegate and EGR)
- Advanced map fitting and analysis techniques
Other topics proposed by participants
Note: This course may be offered as a future open registration event OR requested as a custom training at a GTI office location or your location.
