Progress in Catalytic Ignition Fabrication, Modeling and Infrastructure: (Part 2) Development of a Multi-Zone Engine Model Simulated using MATLAB Software
A mathematical model was developed for the purpose of providing students with data acquisition and engine modeling experience at the University of Idaho. In developing the model, multiple heat transfer and emissions models were researched and compared before being implemented in the final model. It was decided that empirical methods would be used to predict engine performance facets due to their simplicity, and would be later modified, or adjusted, to fit the test results.
