Description

Introduction

The TU Darmstadt engine is an optically accessible single cylinder spark-ignition direct injection engine. It is embedded in an especially designed test bench to provide well characterized boundary conditions and reproducible engine operation. A reproducible engine operation is needed to characterize the variety of in-cylinder processes and is a prerequisite for any comparison of experiments and simulations. The in-cylinder processes are characterized using advanced laser-diagnostics to provide measurements at high spatial and temporal resolutions. The aim of this effort is, to build up a comprehensive data set

to give insights into the underlying physics for a better understanding of the relevant in-cylinder processes and
for the validation of CFD simulations especially for large eddy simulations (LES).
