Advanced Engine Simulator Integrated with Engine Rotational Hardware

Abstract This paper describes a novel engine simulator combined with actual piston-crank hardware. The thrust force to the piston generated by engine combustion is given by a cycle by cycle engine simulator including the gas exchange and combustion process simulations. It allows us not only to analyze the elastic effect of the crank shaft but also to study HEV controls because an actual alternative drivetrain is easily connected with the simulator.
