Abstract

The aim with modelling internal combustion engines is twofold:

  1. 1

    To predict engine performance without having to conduct tests.

  2. 2

    To deduce the performance of parameters that can be difficult to measure in tests, for example, the trapped mass of air in a two-stroke engine or a turbocharged engine.
