Towards a Stronger Simulation Support for Engine Control Design: a Methodological Point of View

Abstract

Thanks to a specific crank angle degree modelling approach and an accurate simu-lator calibration, it is nowadays possible build complete simulator which allows the control engineer access numerous engine variables, especially non measurable values, perform tests over wide range of operating conditions. Hosted in dedicated platform, can support system design at each stage development cycle. Its use starts with local dynamics understanding behaviour ends real time pre-calibration.
