Abstract
Two methodologies are presented for modeling the initial in-cylinder gas state prior to the combustion. The first method is based on measured in-cylinder pressure data and allows the cylinder individual calculation of the gas mass and temperature. A physical equation for the online calculation of the polytropic exponent during the compression stroke is derived in order to receive accurate absolute pressure data from piezo based in-cylinder pressure sensors. In order to model the in-cylinder temperature an additional semi physical model is proposed to account for the heat input during the intake stroke. From the first methodology a second semi-physical model for the average in-cylinder gas mass and temperature is derived which will only need cylinder pressure data for the calibration process of the experimental model.
