Computational Visualization and Simulation of Diesel Engines Valve Lift Performance Using CFD

Abstract: The paper visualized and simulated the intake and exhaust valve lift in the single-cylinder four-stroke direct injection diesel engine. The visualization and simulation computational development were using the commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics of STAR-CD 3.15A software and GT-SUITE 6.2 software. The one dimensional of valve lift modeling was developed using GT-POWER software and the visualization the model using STAR-CD. The model simulation covers the full engine cycle consisting of intake, compression, power and exhaust. The visualization and simulation shown the diesel engine intake and exhaust valve lifting and moving based on the crank angle degree parameters. The result of this visualization and simulation shows the intake and exhaust valve lift moving and air fluid flow of the diesel engine model
