Most of designs are iterative and “manual” design using a single simulation tool
Challenges :
• To improve models accuracy
• To improve simulation cost / complexity
• To define new criterions for numerical design

Automatically design combustion systems for gasoline
and Diesel engines
Objectives :
• To maximize the whole efficiency and max torque curve
• To maximize the exhaust temperature for aftertreatment systems
lightoff (Diesel part loads, gasoline starting)
• To fulfill constraints (noise, emissions targets, stability criterion,
mechanical limits)
Final outputs : Overall gains / maps

To use CFD to calibrate 1D combustion model
• To determine intake and exhaust pressure drops (steady
state simulations)
• To find a way to calibrate combustion speed and knock
limits in 1D from 3D results
To improve models accuracy
• Knock
• Soot (PN / PM)
To enrich optimization with new criterions
• Combustion stability

Complex system approach, with a global overview of the whole system : Engine example
• Engine BSFC – cycle fuel consumption
• Raw emission and after treatment behavior (transient)
• Engine cooling and part thermo-mechanical stress (transient)
• Engine friction
• Engine control
We need global simulation tools in order to simulate the whole complex system
Challenges :
• Simulation accuracy
• Interface with specific codes
• Simulation time (up to real time)
• Global optimization
