SYNOPSIS vehicle system.
The course introduces students to the fundamentals SYNOPSIS
of internal combustion engines (ICEs). This course is intended to introduce vehicle dynamics
Thermodynamic operating principles are used to modeling and simulation. Mathematical models will
solve problems on spark ignition and compression be developed in order to predict the vehicle
ignition engines that operate on four-stroke or two- behaviour in longitudinal, lateral and vertical
stroke cycles. The scope of the course includes all directions. Tire modeling will cover both linear and
ICEs with an emphasis on reciprocating engines used non-linear tire models. Validation and limitations of
in automobiles and similar applications. Topics vehicle models will be discussed. These models will
include operating characteristics, engine cycles, be used to evaluate the performance of tire, ride
thermochemistry and fuels, air and fuel induction, and handling. For vehicle handling assessment,
fluid motion within combustion chamber, combustion, steady-state and transient tests will be described.
exhaust flow, emissions and air pollution, heat Modeling and simulation of vehicle systems in
transfer in engines, and friction and lubrication. The MATLAB/SIMULINK environment will be used
latest automotive technologies are also discussed in extensively in class notes and assignments.
