Fundamentals of Cylinder Pressure Measurement

Fundamentals of Cylinder Pressure Measurement

These days cylinder pressure indication is a firmly established aspect of engine development. A basic knowledge of use of the measuring chain as a whole and alternative ways of evaluating the obtained measurement data are the first step towards understanding the complex processes in an engine. The training conveys the fundamentals of cylinder pressure measurement and is also a useful refresher course.

Objective:

On completion of the course the participant will be familiar with the indication measurement chain components and their functions, the relationship between cylinder pressure and volume and the key combustion analysis parameters.

Target group:

Test and development department employees who install, use or service indication measurement systems, and personnel responsible for evaluating the combustion data.

Contents:

• Principle of crank angle based cylinder pressure measurement and significance in engine development
• Required components: pressure sensor, amplifier, crank angle encoder and combustion analyzer
• Basic data acquisition terminology: crank angle resolution, sampling rate, memory and number of channels
• Method of determining zero level and top dead center
• Interfaces with systems on test stands and in vehicles
• Parameters from pressure trace and from simplified thermodynamics analysis
• Potential measuring errors and their effect on results

The course consists of lectures and a workshop in which typical measurement preparation tasks are carried out in the form of practical exercises.

Duration:

1/2 day (9:00 am – 1:30 pm)

Price:

150 € per participant

Course Code:

9941-E3

Date, location, course language:

• 1 March 2012, Ostfildern near Stuttgart (Germany)
• on request at customer premises, in German or English
