This book, together with its companion volume Theory of Engine
Manifold Design - Wave Action Methods for IC Engines aims to report
upon the significant developments that have occurred over the last
twenty years and show how mature the calculation of one-dimensional
flow has become. In particular the volumes show how many of the
limitations of the Method of Characteristics can be removed by the
application of finite volume techniques, resulting in more accurate
simulations and giving the further benefit of more rapid and more
robust calculations. TOPICS COVERED:* Summary of equations for
compressible flow in pipes and at the boundaries* Measuring the
characteristics of valves and turbochargers* Design of engine gas
flow systems* Case studies of flow in engines* Noise generation in
engines, and silencing techniques* Future developments. Design
Techniques for Engine Manifolds is aimed at practising engineers
and students, who wish to get a good understanding of how wave
action in the inlet and exhaust manifolds of reciprocating engines
affects the performance of the engine. A variety of numerical
techniques are presented in some depth, yet the material is
considered from an engineering perspective and the use of
specialised mathematical notation has been kept to a minimum.
