A 3D engine simulation shows differences in swirl motion and turbulence between the original symmetric valve lift profile and the DVL.
The CFD simulation was focused on 4000 rpm as the engine speed was tested for the best efficiency and BSFC while maintaining power.
The simulation was used to test the transient effects of the valve lift created by the DVL movement.
A flame speed propagation analysis was done to estimate how slow the real flame speed is when compared to the simulation flame speed.
The validated simulation can be use to test the actual engine for modifications without using the actual engine.

Determination of the Fan Performance Using CFD
In this paragraph, the fan characteristic is determined for a usual electronic cooling fan with a diameter of 87 mm and a width of 16.5 mm.
In Fig. 1, the simulation domain and the volume mesh are shown.
Figure 1: Simulation domain and volume mesh for fan calculations The volume mesh was generated using the 3D polyhedral mesher.
Simulations have been done from Q=0 m³/h in steps of ΔQ=10 m³/h until the total-to-static pressure rise became negative.
As a next step the test rig will be built and comparison between measurements and simulations are planed to be shown in detail in a next publication.
