Kursspecifika förkunskaper
Basic course in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics.
Syfte
The course aims at providing fundamental knowledge of engines that are used in ground vehicles, which provide mechanical energy for vehicle propulsion. The course focuses on the end problem; the overall characteristics of energy conversion and transmission. A review of the fundamental principles that govern engine design and operation will be given and how the operating characteristics - power, efficiency and emissions depend on major engine design and operating variables.
Lärandemål (efter fullgjord kurs ska studenten kunna)
• explain the character of torque and power of an internal combustion engine
• describe and explain major phenomena going on in an internal combustion engine, such as gas exchange, combustion and emissions formation
Innehåll
The course is a basic course in Internal Combustion Engines that should provide the student with sufficient knowledge to take active part in design and development work within the automotive industry.
Organisation
The course is organized as a lecture based course complemented with two large assignments. There are also some minor exercises and an engine dismantling lab.
Litteratur
John B. Heywood, Internal Combustion Engine Fundamentals, McGraw-Hill 1988, ISBN 0-07-100499-8. Additional technical papers and classroom notes are used as supplementary text.
Examination
There is a midterm, where some problem solving is tested, and a written final exam. Completed assignments will be a pre-requisite for the exam.
