Creation and destruction of in-cylinder flows : Large eddy simulations of the intake and the compression strokes
The aim of this thesis is to increase engine efficiency by studying the flow structures created in an engine cylinder during the intake phase and the effect of the subsequent compression. The invention of the combustion engine has enabled three centuries of economic growth fueled by energy stored as...
