Track: Modeling and Simulation
Abstract
This work provides a physical simulation scheme for a camless engine. The system is composed by a four stroke spark ignited cylinders and a hydraulic system which control the position of the intake/exhaust valve. The main purpose of the work is to provide a tool to analyze the mechanical behavior of the engine components and the directional valves and double acting cylinders in charge of the opening of the intake/exhaust valves as well as the control algorithm. The simulation is useful to define the dimension of the hydraulic system parameters depending on the mechanical characteristics of the engine.
