COMPUTER SIMULATION OF A DIESEL ENGINE
Precise and detailed information and data are required to design new diesel engines and to improve the old ones. It is shown that such information can be obtained by detailed thermodynamic analysis on a computer with a small amount of experimentation. A theoretical model for complete thermodynamic cycle analysis is given keeping a balance between complexity of calculations and adequacy of results. Details of the computer program for the closed cycle and results of parametric studies made with the program are also given.
