Abstract

The mechanical structure, movement mode, and combustion process of a triangular rotor engine differ from those of a conventional engine with a crank connecting rod mechanism as the core. This makes it impossible to directly use existing simulation software to simulate the performance of the entire engine, rendering it difficult to conduct structural evaluation and performance prediction during the engine development stage. Therefore, using existing performance simulation software to establish a performance-equivalent model for a triangular rotor engine is crucial. To solve the above problems, this study proposes a performance-equivalent simulation modelling method for a triangular rotor engine based on a three-dimensional simulation model and the operating principles of the triangular rotor and four-stroke engines. Compared to various performance indicators obtained from the three-dimensional simulation model, the results show that the equivalent model established in this study has sufficient accuracy for key indicators such as the cylinder pressure, cylinder temperature, and in-cylinder quality under various working conditions. This can satisfy the requirements of the complete machine-performance simulation of a triangular rotor engine.
