Abstract

The internal combustion engine (IC engine) is a complex mechanical system that plays a vital role in many industries. In order to design and optimize IC engines, accurate modeling and simulation of the engine's geometry and fluid flow are essential. This review paper provides an overview of the latest research in the field of geometric modeling and fluid flow simulation of IC engines. Firstly, the different techniques used for geometric modeling of IC engines are discussed, including the advantages and disadvantages of each approach. The impact of geometric modeling on the accuracy of fluid flow simulations is also examined. Next, the various approaches to simulating fluid flow in IC engines are reviewed, including the use of different turbulence models and boundary conditions. The challenges involved in accurately modeling and simulating IC engines are highlighted, such as the complex geometry and the presence of multiple phases. Furthermore, this review paper discusses the potential future research directions in this field, including the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to improve the accuracy of simulations, and the incorporation of real-world driving conditions in simulations. In conclusion, this review paper provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research in the field of geometric modeling and fluid flow simulation of IC engines, highlighting the challenges and potential future directions in this important area of research.
