Abstract
Abstract The use of zero‐ and quasi‐one‐dimensional thermodynamic engine cycle simulations has become well established over the last several decades. Such engine simulations provide valuable insight into the various aspects of engine operation, and are helpful for a number of reasons. For example, these types of simulations are useful for interpreting experimental results, completing detailed parametric evaluations, and evaluating engine concepts. For more efficient use of these simulations, the engineer needs to understand the fundamentals and the wide range of uses of these simulations. The engineer also needs to understand the limitations of these simulations, and to use the simulations in appropriate ways. This chapter will present some examples of the use of thermodynamic engine cycle simulations. Examples of basic cylinder parameters and overall engine performance parameters will be presented.
