... with the computational combustion rate. The joint application of this combustion model and the present k - ε turbulence model has been successfully applied to reciprocating engines for both motoring and firing operation ( 21 22 ). Flow within the engine cylinder is turbulent and boundary layer...

...Khaled Loubar; Je´ro^me Bellettre; Mohand Tazerout This paper deals with the transient thermal signal around an engine cylinder in order to propose a new and nonintrusive method of knock detection. Numerical simulations of unsteady heat transfer through the cylinder and inside the coolant flow...
