Diesel Engine Experimental Design and Advanced Analysis Techniques

Davis, Jonathan Michael

Abstract Details

2011, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Mechanical Engineering.
A new diesel engine control strategy has been developed. In order to successfully validate and implement this control strategy experimental design techniques were used which optimize the data collection process. This included the setup of cylinder pressure measurements as well as the creation of an automating testing program. This program automates engine testing, interfacing with key components such as the dynamometer and engine controller (ECU). Both steady state and transient testing algorithms were developed. Several advanced analysis techniques have been developed for the project. A combustion noise algorithm was created which uses cylinder pressure signals. An in depth study on pegging cylinder pressure was completed, utilizing GT Power©. GT Power© was also used to analyze an experimental design to simulate altitude at sea level in the test cell.
