Due to high demand, this class is now full.  To accomodate this demand, we have just posted an identicial training course on June 3-5.  To register, please click here

This 3-day course is designed for new users of GT-POWER and GT-SUITE that are interested in modeling internal combustion engines. This course will focus on engine simulation through the use of GT-POWER. Each student will be provided with a computer. The course will include the construction of models and use of the software, which will enable the participants to use the software immediately. It will cover the following topics:

Introductory Concepts of GT-SUITE

  • 1-D Flow Simulation   
  • Discretization of 1-D Models   
  • Model Setup- initialization, parameters sweeps, convergence Optimization/Design of Experiments   
  • Post-processing (GT-POST)   
  • Subassemblies: internal, external, encryption of subassemblies

The following engine modeling topics will be included:   

  • Modeling of: manifolds, valves, combustion, heat transfer and fuel injection
  • Non-Predictive Combustion for Gasoline and Diesel Engines   
  • Cylinder Pressure Analysis   
  • Turbochargers   
  • EGR   
  • Controls Library  
  • Transient Simulation   
  • Predictive Combustion Modeling

If time permits at the end of the class, additional topics can be covered including introductions to: Coupling with Simulink, CFD Coupling, and Exhaust Aftertreatment. When registering, please note how you plan to use GT-POWER in the ‘Area of Interest’ field.
