LOGEengine RT
LOGEengine RT is a real-time capable simulation tool for predicting engine in-cylinder processes and exhaust emissions. This feature makes it a natural choice for engine design, prototyping, and X-in-the-loop (XiL) type applications, including driving cycle analysis.
LOGEengine RT couples the LOGEengine Stochastic Reactor Model (SRM) of the engine in-cylinder process with LOGEfuel for detailed and tabulated chemistry-based exhaust emissions prediction. Its integration with third-party software is carried out via FMU technology, which follows the FMI 2.0 industry standard. Using the FMU technology, LOGEengine RT can be easily integrated with third-party tools, including numerical platforms for simulating a complete engine/vehicle system with exhaust aftertreatment. This possibility makes LOGEengine RT a relevant choice for plant modelling of complex actual engine systems and building their digital twin.
LOGEengine RT predicts crank angle-resolved engine in-cylinder processes in spark ignition (SI) and compression ignition (CI) engines. Thanks to detailed chemistry and stochastic reactor model technology, the nonlinearity of emissions formation can be tracked with information on various species and at different times in the cycle. LOGEengine RT is suitable for Model-in-the-Loop (MiL) or Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) applications, including driving cycle analysis [Figure 1] with engine-fuel interactions. Such simulations can optimise engine performance, exhaust emissions [Figure 2], and fuel effects, and they help reduce the need for costly building of prototypes and experimental works while developing and testing engine control strategies. Along with its Artificial Neural Network (ANN)-based meta model, computational time is several dozen times faster than real time. [Figure 3]
