... expensive experimental measurements and testing. Such models may be used to improve the design and to optimize the operating conditions of the EGR systems and may become valuable tools in the design and manufacturing of the next generation of EGR systems for diesel engines. The model developed is general...

...Dong Fu; Dui Huang; Ahmed Juma; Curtis M. Schreiber; Xiuling Wang; Chenn Q. Zhou Liquid-cooled exhaust manifolds are widely used in turbocharged diesel engines. The large temperature gradient in the overall manifold can cause remarkable thermal stress. The objective of the project is to optimize...

... parts of the stroke shows that the main mechanism of heat transfer is conduction from the piston assembly. This paper illustrates a heat transfer model to predict the axial distribution of heat flux observed in the wall of the second cylinder of a 2.0 l turbocharged Ford diesel engine, with four...
