Abstract:The statistical tendency of a GDI spark-ignition engine to undergo knocking combustion as a consequence of spark timing variation is numerically investigated. In particular, attention is focused on the importance to match combustion-relevant and knock-relevant fuel properties to ensure consistency with the experimental evidence. An inhouse surrogate formulation methodology is used to emulate real gasoline properties, comparing fuel models of increasing complexity. Knock is investigated using a proprietary stat… Show more
