Numerical Estimation of Wiebe Function Parameters Using Artificial Neural Networks in SI Engine
[EN] In modeling an Internal Combustion Engine, the combustion sub-model plays a critical role in the overall simulation of the engine as it provides the Mass Fraction Burned (MFB). Analytically, the Heat Release Rate (HRR) can be obtained using the Wiebe function, which is nothing more than a mathematical formulation of the MFB. The mentioned function depends on the following four parameters: efficiency parameter, shape factor, crankshaft angle, and duration of the combustion. In this way, the Wiebe function can be adjusted to experimentally measured values of the mass fraction burned at various operating points using a least-squares regression, and thus obtaining specific values for the unknown parameters. Nevertheless, the main drawback of this approach is the requirement of testing the engine at a given engine load/speed condition. Furthermore, the main objective of this study is to propose a predictive model of the Wiebe parameters for any operating point of the tested SI engine. For this purpose, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is developed from the experimental data. A criterion was defined to choose the best-trained network. Finally, the Wiebe parameters are estimated with the neural networks for different operating conditions. Moreover, the mass fractions burned generated from the Wiebe functions are compared with the respective experimental values from several operating points measured in the engine test bench. Small differences were found between the estimated and experimental mass fractions burned. Therefore, the effectiveness of the developed ANN model as a prediction tool for the engine MFB is verified.Torregrosa, AJ.; Broatch, A.; Olmeda, P.; Aceros, S. (2021).

Development and Validation of a Submodel for Thermal Exchanges in the Hydraulic Circuits of a Global Engine Model
[EN] To face the current challenges of the automotive industry, there is a need for computational models capable to simulate the engine behavior under low-temperature and low-pressure conditions. Internal combustion engines are
complex and have interconnected systems where many processes take place and influence each other. Thus, a global approach to engine simulation is suitable to study the entire engine performance. The circuits that distribute the hydraulic fluids -liquid fuels, coolants and lubricants- are critical subsystems of the engine. This work presents a 0D model which was developed and set up to make possible the simulation of hydraulic circuits in a global engine model. The model is capable of simulating flow and pressure distributions as well as heat transfer processes in a circuit. After its development, the thermo-hydraulic model was implemented in a physical based engine model called Virtual Engine Model (VEMOD), which takes into account all the relevant relations among subsystems. In the present paper, the thermo-hydraulic model is described and then it is used to simulate oil and coolant circuits of a diesel engine. The objective of the work is to validate the model under steady-state and transient operation, with focus on the thermal evolution of oil and coolant. For validation under steady-state conditions, 22 operating points were measured and simulated, some of them in cold environment. In general, good agreement was obtained between simulation and experiments. Next, the WLTP driving cycle was simulated starting from warmed-up conditions and from ambient temperature. Results were compared with the experiment, showing that modeled trends were close to those experimentally measured. Thermal evolutions of oil and coolant
were predicted with mean errors between 0.7 °C and 2.1 °C. In particular, the warm-up phase was satisfactorily modeled.This research has been partially funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for research, technological development and demonstration under grant agreement 723976 (“DiePeR”) and by the Spanish government under the grant agreement TRA2017-89894-R.

Assessing the optimum combustion under constrained conditions
[EN] This work studies the optimum heat release law of a direct injection diesel engine under constrained conditions. For this purpose, a zero-dimensional predictive model of a diesel engine is coupled to an optimization tool used to shape the heat release law in order to optimize some outputs (maximize gross indicated efficiency and minimize NOx emissions) while keeping several restrictions (mechanical limits such as maximum peak pressure and maximum pressure rise rate). In a first step, this methodology is applied under different heat transfer scenarios without restrictions to evaluate the possible gain obtained through the thermal isolation of the combustion chamber. Results derived from this study show that heat transfer has a negative effect on gross indicated efficiency ranging from -4% of the fuel energy (m(f)H(v)), at high engine speed and load, up to -8% m(f)H(v), at low engine speed and load. In a second step, different mechanical limits are applied resulting in a gross indicated efficiency worsening from -1.4% m(f)H(v) up to -2.8% m(f)H(v) compared to the previous step when nominal constraints are applied. In these conditions, a temperature swing coating that covers the piston top and cylinder head is considered obtaining a maximum gross indicated efficiency improvement of +0.5% m(f)H(v) at low load and engine speed. Finally, NOx emissions are also included in the optimization obtaining the expected tradeoff between gross indicated efficiency and NOx. Under this optimization, cutting down the experimental emissions by 50% supposes a gross indicated efficiency penalty up to -8% m(f)H(v) when compared to the optimum combustion under nominal limits, while maintaining the experimental gross indicated efficiency allows to reduce the experimental emissions 30% at high load and 65% at low load and engine speed.This work was partially funded by GM Global R&D and the Government of Spain through Project TRA2017-89894-R.

A holistic methodology to correct heat transfer and bearing friction losses from hot turbocharger maps in order to obtain adiabatic efficiency of the turbomachinery
This is the author¿s version of a work that was accepted for publication in International Journal of Engine Research. Changes resulting from the publishing process, such as peer review, editing, corrections, structural formatting,
and other quality control mechanisms may not be reflected in this document. Changes may have been made to this work since it was submitted for publication. A definitive version was subsequently published as https://doi.org/10.1177/1468087419834194[EN] Turbocharger performance maps provided by manufacturers are usually far from the assumption of reproducing the isentropic
performance. The reason being, those maps are usually measured using a hot gas stand. The definition of the
effective turbocharger efficiency maps include the mechanical losses and heat transfer that has occurred during the gas
stand test for the turbine maps and only the heat transfer for the compressor maps. Thus, a turbocharger engine model
that uses these maps provides accurate results only when simulating turbocharger operative conditions similar to those
at which the maps are recorded. However, for some critical situations such as Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles
Test Cycles (WLTC) driving cycle or off-design conditions, it is difficult to ensure this assumption. In this article, an internal
and external heat transfer model combined with mechanical losses model, both previously developed and calibrated, has
been used as an original tool to ascertain a calculation procedure to obtain adiabatic maps from diabatic standard turbocharger
maps. The turbocharger working operative conditions at the time of map measurements and geometrical information
of the turbocharger are necessary to discount both effects precisely. However, the maps from turbocharger manufacturers
do not include all required information. These create additional challenges to develop the procedure to obtain approximated
adiabatic maps making some assumptions based on SAE standards for non-available data. A sensitivity study has been
included in this article to check the validity of the hypothesis proposed by changing the values of parameters which are not
included in the map data. The proposed procedure becomes a valuable tool either for Original Equipment Manufacturers
(OEMs) to parameterize turbocharger performance accurately for benchmarking and turbocharged engine design or to turbocharger
manufacturers to provide much-appreciated information of their performance maps.The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship and/or publication of this article: This work has been partially

In-cylinder pressure based model for exhaust temperature estimation in internal combustion engines
[EN] Exhaust temperature is a valuable parameter for engine control. However, measurement conditions at the engine exhaust and the slow dynamic response of temperature sensors difficult the determination of the instantaneous exhaust temperature. The present paper proposes a methodology for estimating the exhaust temperature exclusively relying in-cylinder pressure signal, engine speed and exhaust lambda.The presented methodology can replace or actualize widespread look-up table models for correcting calibration offsets, due to ageing, sensor bias or disturbances associated with the engine operation. The method uses the existence of resonant modes in the in-cylinder pressure for inferring the trapped mass and the in-cylinder temperature. An isentropic expansion of the gasses through the valves is assumed for estimating the cylinder outlet temperature of the gases, and the gas temperature drop along the exhaust runner and manifold is modelled through a nodal thermal model. The method was compared with current models under steady and transient conditions in a four stroke CI engine. Variations of injection, EGR, intake pressure and rail pressure were performed under steady operation and the transient response of the method was validated under specific transient test and at the WLTP cycle. A time invariant first order model was used for comparing the estimated temperature with that provided by the experimental sensors. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

Analysis of the energy balance during World harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycle in warmed and cold conditions using a Virtual Engine
This is the author's version of a work that was accepted for publication in International Journal of Engine Research. Changes resulting from the publishing process, such as peer review, editing, corrections, structural formatting,
and other quality control mechanisms may not be reflected in this document. Changes may have been made to this work since it was submitted for publication. A definitive version was subsequently published as https://doi.org/10.1177/1468087419878593.[EN] In recent years, the interests on transient operation and real driving emissions have increased because of the global concern about environmental pollution that has led to new emissions regulation and new standard testing cycles. In this framework, it is mandatory to focus the engines research on the transient operation, where a Virtual Engine has been used to perform the global energy balance of a 1.6-L diesel engine during a World harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycle. Thus, the energy repartition of the chemical energy has been described with warmed engine and cold start conditions, analyzing in detail the mechanisms affecting the engine consumption. The first analysis focuses on the ¿delay¿ effect affecting the instantaneous energy balance due to the time lag between the in-cylinder processes and pipes: as a main conclusion, it is obtained that it leads to an apparent unbalance than can reach more than 10% of the cumulated fuel energy at the beginning of the cycle, becoming later negligible. Energy split analysis in cold starting World harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycle shows that in this condition the energy accumulation in the block is a key term at the beginning (about 50%) that diminishes its weight until about 10% at the end of the cycle. In warmed conditions, energy accumulation is negligible, but the heat transfer to coolant and oil are higher than in cold starting conditions (21% vs 28%). The lower values of the mean brake efficiency at the beginning of the World harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycle (only about 20%) is affected, especially in cold starting, by the higher mechanical losses due to the higher oil viscosity and the heat rejection from the gases. The friction plays an important role only during the first half of the cycle, with a percentage of about 65% of the total mechanical losses and 10% of the total fuel energy at the end of the World harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycle. However, at the end of the cycle, it does not affect dramatically the mean brake efficiency which is about 31% both in cold starting and warmed World harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycle.The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship and/or publication of this article: This research has been partially funded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for research, technological development and demonstration under grant agreement 723976 ("DiePeR'') and by the Spanish government under the grant agreement TRA2017-89894-R.

A one-dimensional modeling study on the effect of advanced insulation coatings on internal combustión engine efficiency
This is the author's version of a work that was accepted for publication in International Journal of Engine Research. Changes resulting from the publishing process, such as peer review, editing, corrections, structural formatting,

A definitive version was subsequently published as https://doi.org/10.1177/1468087420921584.[EN] This article presents a study of the impact on engine efficiency of the heat loss reduction due to in-cylinder coating insulation. A numerical methodology based on one-dimensional heat transfer model is developed. Since there is no analytic solution for engines, the one-dimensional model was validated with the results of a simple "equivalent" problem, and then applied to different engine boundary conditions. Later on, the analysis of the effect of different coating properties on the heat transfer using the simplified one-dimensional heat transfer model is performed. After that, the model is coupled with a complete virtual engine that includes both thermodynamic and thermal modeling. Next, the thermal flows across the cylinder parts coated with the insulation material (piston and cylinder head) are predicted and the effect of the coating on engine indicated efficiency is analyzed in detail. The results show the gain limits, in terms of engine efficiency, that may be obtained with advanced coating solutions.The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: The equipment used in this work has been partially supported by FEDER project funds "otacion de infraestructuras cientifico tecnicas para el Centro Integral de Mejora Energetica y Medioambiental de Sistemas de Transporte (CiMeT)'' (Grant No. FEDER-ICTS-2012-06), framed in the operational program of unique scientific and technical infrastructure of the Spanish Government.

Energy analysis of a lithium-ion battery module for an e-bus application under different thermal boundaries
[EN] In this study, a methodology for the energy analysis of a lithium-ion battery module cooled by a serpentine cooling plate is proposed. A novel lumped electro-thermal model of a cooled module is calibrated and validated: thermal nodes are assigned to the Li-ion cells, the cooling plate, the thermal pad, and the coolant. The model is experimentally characterized and validated, and a maximum root mean square error equal to 1.44% for the electrical model is obtained; all the errors of the thermal models are kept below the 2%. The proposed approach allows to identify, with a low computational cost and reduced calculation time, the thermal evolution of the nodes depending on the environmental and operating conditions considered. This aspect is of fundamental importance to identify hot spots in the module and to prevent possible dangerous events such as thermal runaway. To highlight these advantages, an extended fast-charging parametric study of the module is carried out, considering 240 simulations, varying 4 parameters (ambient temperature, required electric power, temperature and coolant volumetric flow) and monitoring 3 variables (peak temperature in the module at the end of the charging process, thermal gradient, and time spent in the optimal temperature range), allowing to identify the combinations of operating parameters that permit the rapid charging of the module under optimal conditions. Furthermore, the energy analysis provides an estimation of the charging efficiency of the cells, which is around 90% for every considered thermal boundary. The heat generated by the cells, the heat dissipated into the coolant and the heat absorbed by the other module components are estimated: in a 4C charge, the 80% of total heat is dissipated into the coolant, while in a 1C charge, this aliquot is equal to 95%. The reduced computational time and cost make this model suitable both for cooling system design and for control strategies development.This work was supported by Generalitat Valenciana within the framework of the PROMETEO project "Contribution to the decarbon-ization of transport by optimizing the thermal management of vehicle batteries electrified" with reference number PROMETEO/2020/042.

Internal Combustion Engine Heat Transfer and Wall Temperature Modeling: An Overview
[EN] Internal combustion engines are now extremely optimized, in such ways improving their performance is a costly task. Traditional engine improvement by experimental means is aided by engine thermodynamic models, reducing experimental and total project costs. For those models, accuracy is mandatory in order to offer good prediction of engine performance. Modelling of the heat transfer and wall temperature is an important task concerning the accuracy and the predictions of any engine thermodynamic model, although it is many times an overcome task. In order to perform good prediction of engine heat transfer and wall temperature, models are required for accomplish heat transfer from hot gases to engine parts, heat transfer inside each engine part, and also heat transfer to coolant and lubricating oil. This paper presents an overview about engine heat transfer and wall temperature modelling, with main purpose to aid engine thermodynamic modelling and offer more accurate predictions of engine performance, consumption and emission parameters. The most important correlation are reviewed for three engine heat transfer approaches: gas to wall, wall to wall and wall to liquid heat transfer models. In order to obtain good prediction of wall temperature, those three approaches must be coupled, which may imply convection-conduction-convection problems, although for some applications in diesel engines, radiation problems must be considered.This study was partially funded by CAPES - DEMANDA

Among them, the use of nanofluids as a coolant medium seems to be an interesting alternative. In this work, the potential benefits of using nanofluids in the cooling system using an engine lumped model are studied. The methodology of the study starts with a whole description and validation of the model in both steady and transient conditions by means of a comparison with experimental results. Then, the potential benefits that could be obtained with the use of nanofluids are studied in a theoretical way. After that, the model is used to estimate the behavior of the system using different nanofluids in both stationary and transient conditions. The main results show that the advantages of using these new refrigerants are limited.The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: The equipment used in this work has been partially supported by FEDER project funds "Dotacion de infraestructuras cientifico tecnicas para el Centro Integral de Mejora Energetica y Medioambiental de Sistemas de Transporte (CiMeT)'' (grant number FEDER-ICTS-2012-06), framed in the operational program of unique scientific and technical infrastructure of the Spanish Government.Torregrosa, AJ.; Broatch, A.; Olmeda, P.; Dreif-Bennany, A.
