Contents

From [MV-LAF-86303-K-4] Combustion Engines:
  • Basic operating principles of combustion engines, systematics and designs
  • Engine and operating parameters
  • Thermodynamics of the combustion engine: operating principles, idealized processes, loss analysis/energy balance
  • Operating process of gasoline engines: mixture formation, ignition, combustion/combustion systems, pollutant formation
  • Operating process of diesel engines: injection, mixture formation/auto-ignition/combustion, combustion systems, pollutant formation
  • Gas exchange and turbocharging: gas exchange in four-stroke and two-stroke reciprocating engines, variabilities; supercharging methods and their relevance for engine operation
  • Exhaust emissions and exhaust aftertreatment: effects of exhaust pollutants, legal regulations, exhaust aftertreatment systems
  • Engine dynamics: kinematics, forces and moments in the engine, mass balancing, rotational non-uniformity
  • Development trends for future combustion engine based powertrains: general situation, engine-internal measures for reducing CO2 and pollutants, alternative fuels, operating point shift and hybridization

Competencies / intended learning achievements

From [MV-LAF-86303-K-4] Combustion Engines:
Students will be able to
  • name and explain engine designs and basic engine processes,
  • analyze and assess engine combustion in terms of thermodynamics,
  • explain and evaluate the influences of gas exchange, injection and mixture formation as well as ignition or auto-ignition on the combustion quality of gasoline and diesel engines,
  • understand the formation of exhaust pollutants in internal combustion engines and explain measures for avoiding or reducing the formation of pollutants and for their aftertreatment,
  • name and explain measures for reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by means of engine-internal measures and by specifying appropriate operating strategies for the respective drive system,
  • use the above knowledge and skills to solve basic research and development tasks in engine development.
