1 Abstract The alicability of the comonent-based design aroach to the design of internal combustion engines is demonstrated by develoing a simlified model of such an engine under automatic seed control, in the Ptolemy environment. A key feature of such a model is its modular construction, which allows sub-models of different kinds to be connected together to form a realistic reresentation of this comlex device. It also allows the individual modules to be "changed out" with others that are more or less refined, deending on the requirements of the task at hand. Finally, such a model rovides a framework in which the different engineering discilines involved can contribute in an effective and Proosed Aroach/Method This roject focuses on the develoment of a hybrid model of an engine that can rovide information on the engine s state at any instant. In order to accomlish this we'll take advantage of the hybrid systems and concurrent comuting theory that has come of age in the last years, as imlemented on Ptolemy. This rovides a much more convenient environment in which to construct such models than the traditional comuting environment. A rich and extensive literature has already been develoed on the engine-modeling roblem, and a bibliograhy of some of the more ertinent articles is given at the end of this reort. Here we borrow and modify the results of several of these articles ([4], [7], [9], [14], [15], and [3]), to develo and imlement our own model in the Ptolemy environment. Since the goal here is to demonstrate the method, the analytical sub-models used are ket relatively simle. They are still comlex enough, though, to give realistic results and also to demonstrate the model's and Ptolemy's robustness. The Four Stroke Cycle and Piston Position Figure 1 describes the thermodynamic cycle that a four-stroke sark ignition engine undergoes. The cycle consists of four strokes of the iston (intake, comression, combustion/exansion, and exhaust), each taking a half revolution of the crankshaft, and each beginning and ending at either the iston s to dead center (TDC) or Bottom Dead Center (BDC) osition (its highest or lowest osition). It thus takes two revolutions of the crankshaft (70 ) to comlete one cycle. If the vehicle is moving forward (which we assume throughout), its crankshaft angular velocity, ω cs, will be ositive and its angular osition φ cs will simly be the integral of ω cs, a monotonically increasing function in time. φ cs modulo 70 will then be a saw tooth waveform that increases from zero to 70 (an examle, to be discussed later, is shown in Figure b.) The cylinder delivers a ositive torque in only one of these strokes the exansion stroke. In all of the others it requires torque. The torque outut of a cylinder is thus quite variable and fluctuates between ositive and negative values. A real engine consists of more than one cylinder, and these are offset on the crankshaft with resect to one another to smooth out the engine s overall outut. Figure indicates how this offset angle φ co is defined ositive when the iston is offset counterclockwise from φ cs = 0 and negative when it is offset clockwise from it. The iston angle φ is then defined as φ φcs φco 180 φco + 180, (1) which is a convenient way to secify the iston s osition. In the simlest case, when φ co = 0, 0 φ =φ 70 and iston osition is secified according to the convention cs 0 φ 180 Intake, 180 < φ 360 Comression, 360 < φ 540 Exansion, 540 < φ 70 Exhaust. ()

For simlicity we assume an engine with a single cylinder. The rocess begins with the human driver shown at the far left in the figure. The driver commands the engine to rovide a certain vehicle seed, and he does this with the accelerator edal. Of course, we don t inut a numerical value of seed to the controller when we drive, instead, we sense whether or not we re going at the desired seed and indicate more seed (deress the accelerator edal) or less seed (let u on it) if we re not. The controller thus receives and error signal from the driver, telling it (ultimately) how much torque to deliver to the drive train. This isn t the only objective the controller must satisfy, however. It must also deliver the requested torque in such a way as to minimize vehicle emissions and fuel consumtion, and assenger discomfort due to inordinately high acceleration eaks due to the dynamic resonse of the overall system. For this urose it also receives information concerning the vehicle s seed and the comosition of the exhaust gases. The three command signals that the controller uses to accomlish these objectives are the cylinder sark advance φ s, the fuel injector timing T i, and the air inlet throttle valve angle α. Each of these will be described and discussed in greater detail below.

4 of the cylinder T C is reduced by any load torque T L that may be resent. T L reresents vehicle loads other than that reresented by the mass of the emty vehicle, occuied only by the driver, and traveling along a level surface. It can thus reresent other assengers, luggage, a trailer, an uhill (or downhill, which constitutes a negative load torque) stretch of road, wind gusts, bums, and the like. It can also have a random comonent. The net torque T DL is then inut to the drive train, which roduces a crankshaft seed (and osition) as a result. These are then fed back to the various ustream comonents of the system. We now consider each of these comonents in turn. Sensors and Embedded Controller The embedded controller receives signals concerning desired seed, actual seed, and exhaust gas comosition through sensors, as indicated in Figure 4. The sensors and various engine comonents are all continuous time devices, but the controller a digital microrocessor is tyically a discrete time device. For this reason the continuous signals from the sensors must first be converted to discrete signals via a samler or event generator. Each event generator samles with some samling eriod t i, as indicated in the figure, which may be different from the other event generators samling eriods. The discrete control signals that are subsequently outut by the controller are then converted back to continuous signals via Zero Order Holds, also shown. Note how the discrete domain must be isolated from the continuous domain that it resides in. This is not only an imortant feature of the model. The comutational domain that the model is constructed in must also be caable of roviding the roer interfaces to allow the various domains to communicate roerly. We ll discuss this in more detail later on.

The governing equations for the motor are Vb= K bα, Vα= Rαiα+ L αiα+ V b, T = K i = J α+ D α+ K α, α t α α α α where α is the angular osition of the motor shaft and thus the butterfly valve connected directly to it ( closed corresonds to α=0 and oen to α=90 ). The other terms are defined at the end of this reort. Elimination of V b, V α, and i α then gives α= + α + + α+ α+ Rα Dα Rα Kα Kt Kb RαKα Kt V, α Lα Jα Lα Jα LαJα LαJα LαJα = K α K α+ K α+ K V α (5) (6) The motor arameters are then chosen to rovide the desired erformance. The solution of Equ. (6) is reresented by the shaded block in Figure 5. Alication of an inut voltage to a motor of course gives velocity, not osition, which we desire. This can be achieved, however, by lacing the motor in the simle feedback loo indicated. With this we now have an additional arameter, the feedback gain G, with which to achieve desired transient resonse and steady state error.

6 Intake Manifold The equations describing the air flow into the cylinder from the intake manifold are resented in [4], [14], and [15]: 1 V d atm (Rg T atm) man man v cs man cs man eff 4 (Vd V m) (Vd V m) atm = η ( ω, ) ω + β A ( α) π + + V m = η ( ω, ), d a v cs man man 4RgTatm where man is the intake manifold ressure and m a is the mass of air entrained in the cylinder at the end of the intake stroke. The equations are derived from theoretical rinciles and modified by the inclusion of a volumetric efficiency η v and an effective inlet throat area A eff to account for flow losses. These terms are exerimentally derived, where 30 7 η v = ω cs man, π and where A eff is given by Figure 6. β tests for sonic flow, and is given by (7) (8) 1 γ+ 1 γ γ γ y y y rc 1 γ β (y) =, γ+ 1 1 ( γ 1) γ y< rc γ+ 1 where (9) γ 1 man y= r c = γ, atm γ+ 1 and where γ is the ratio of secific heats for air. The other arameters shown are constants for the engine or thermodynamic roerties of air and are given at the end of this reort. These relations are highly nonlinear, and are evaluated according to the block diagram shown in Figure 7. (10) 5

8 Drive Train The drive train is described by the block diagram shown in Figure 8, taken from [9]. It is a 4 th order linear system, based on a 7 th order nonlinear model of a manual transmission fixed in its highest forward gear. The only state variable required by the other comonents of the model is the crankshaft seed ω cs, which is then integrated to give crankshaft osition φ cs, and adjusted so that it varies between 0 and 70. α b α b T DT α ω 0 + T ω cs α e b DT ω ω cs ω ω cs α e α e 6 φ cs φ cs mod 70 φ cs Drive Train Block Diagram Figure 8 Torque Generation in the Cylinder Figure 9 shows the generic rofile of a cylinder s torque outut over one cycle, based on exerimentally derived data [7]. A Fourier Series has been fitted to this data, the first three harmonics of which are G φ π 1 1 3( φ π) + φ π + φ ( ).1 sin sin sin φ = φ π 1 1 3( φ π) + φ π + φ T( ). ( ). sin sin sin Note from this that the total torque for the cycle (the integral under the curve) will always be ositive, due to multilication by. in the ositive ortion of the rofile. As mentioned, this is just a generic rofile in order to achieve the actual amount of torque necessary to attain a desired engine seed, Equ. (11) is scaled by a factor T S. T S is determined with the aid of another exerimentally derived relation [9] and [3] for the overall torque roduced during a cycle, TC= G T(ma+ m f) ηign( φ s), (1) (11) 7
9 T G (φ ) 0.0 Intake & Comression φ (deg) Combustion & Exhaust where 4 GT.5 10, Generic Torque Waveform Figure 9 N = (13) kg and where η ign, the ignition efficiency, is another exerimentally derived relation [3] given in Figure 10. Tyically, we think of the sark as firing at the start of the exansion stroke (φ = 360 ). Because of the finite time it takes for the flame front to roagate, however, it is usually desirable to advance the sark so that it fires before the comletion of the comression stroke. Alternatively, there are other circumstances in which it is desirable to retard the sark so that it fires after the beginning of the exansion stroke. The iston osition at which the sark fires is conventionally given by φ fire =φ φ s = 360 φ s, (14) where φ s is the sark advance. From this, we see that ositive φ s advances the sark into the comression stroke and negative φ s retards it to occur in the exansion stroke. Figure 10 gives the limits on the values φ s can take as well as the effect it has on outut torque (through η ign ). Combining Equs. (11) and (1) and including the scale factor T S, gives 70 S G φ φ = T + f ηign φs 0 T T ( )d G (ma m ) ( ), (15) for which G (ma+ m ) η ( φ ) T =, T f ign s S 70 T( G φ)dφ 0 The integral is easily evaluated, resulting in 45 T = S G T(ma m f) ign( s) η φ (17) 8 (16)
10 In the model, m a, m f, and φ s are samled once during the intake stroke, and T S calculated. This is then used to determine the torque outut of the cylinder T S T G (φ ) for the remainder of that cycle. 1.0 Ignition Efficiency ηign η ign = φ s φ s φ s (deg) Ignition Efficiency η ign Figure 10 The Cylinder Module Previously, we described the cylinder s continuous time, event-based nature. Such systems are modeled as Finite State Machines (FSM s), and a simlified rendition of the cylinder FSM is shown in Figure 11 (where, for clarity, both φ co and φ s are assumed to be zero). Transitions between the four strokes are triggered by evolution of φ, as indicated. During the intake stroke, as just discussed, m a, m f, and φ s are samled and T S calculated. This module thus gives torque as a function of iston osition φ. 9

Such comonents are called comosite actors. One nice thing about comosite actors is that we can switch domains as we go down the hierarchy. A comosite actor can exist in, say, the CT domain, but the model inside the actor could be in the DE domain. The embedded controller in our engine model is an examle of this (See Figure 4). Modal Models, described above, can also be laced inside comosite actors. The cylinder module (Figure 11) is an examle of a modal model residing in a comosite actor. Though Ptolemy II does a lot of the work for us, we nonetheless have to be careful in how we connect comosite actors with different domains to one another. Another nice feature of comosite actors and modal models is that we can easily change them out with other comatible actors one of the requirements of our model. For hysical models such as ours, the actors oerate simultaneously and can have multile, simultaneous sources of stimuli. They also oerate in a timed (real world) environment. This is true not only for the continuous time modules like the air manifold module, but also for the FSM cylinder module and the discrete event controller. The articular choice of domains for the various modules was easy in our case, because they secifically model the real-world environment we wish to reresent. The engine model has been imlemented in Ptolemy as an interconnection of comosite actors, as shown in Figure 1. This was done to allow for easy interchange and refinement of the individual modules making u the model, as discussed in the revious sections. At this highest level, the CT 10
12 Imlementation of the Engine Model in Ptolemy Figure 1 domain is emloyed. As noted, other domains can be emloyed inside the individual comosite actors, and this has been done in the case of the embedded controller (DE domain) the cylinder (FSM domain), and the drive train (FSM domain). Since all of the comosite actors excet the embedded controller utilize the CT domain, the interconnections between them were straightforward. More care, of course, had to be taken with the embedded controller, shown in Figure 13, and as discussed reviously (See too Figure 4). Here we isolate the DE controller with event generators ustream of it and zero order holds Embedded Controller Figure 13 11
13 The Cylinder Finite State Machine Figure 14 downstream of it. This was the first major subtlety of the imlementation. The second had to do with the cylinder module, shown in Figure 14. As described before, the cylinder inuts m a, m f, and φ s are samled once er cycle, during the intake stroke To accomlish this, a level crossing detector set at φ = 90 triggers a samler, which then samles the inuts. This is shown in Figure 15. The remaining modules were imlemented in a very straightforward fashion from the figures already resented. Their imlementations are shown in Figures The Intake State Figure 15 1

15 The Drive Train Finite State Machine Figure 19a The Drive Train State Figure 19b Simulation Results Ptolemy is still under develoment, and modifications made to it by the develoment team unfortunately introduced bugs that revented the controller and cylinder from being imlemented, and also revented the overall engine from being constructed and simulated in time to be reorted here. In lace of this, then, we will demonstrate the erformance of the individual modules making the model u, as well as several combinations of comonents. We begin with the Throttle Valve, which has been laced in the circuit shown in Figure 0a. The ustream comonents are intended to simulate a discrete controller, inutting for α des a staircase sine wave. The Throttle Valve s erformance is shown in Figure 0b. Note the fast and accurate resonse to an inut that it would never exerience in actual ractice. The Intake Manifold, shown in Figure 1a, is driven by a simulated Throttle Valve that is oening in stes of 0, and a crankshaft that is undergoing a sinusoidal variation in angular velocity. Again, these are extreme inuts. Its erformance is shown in Figure 1b. The Drive Train is shown in Figure a, 14
16 and its resonse to a sinusoidally varying inut torque, which changes sign, is shown in Figure b. In Figure 3a we combine the cylinder and the drive train. Here we assume that both φ co and φ s are zero, and that m a and m f are constant at the stoichiometric ratio (not shown). The drive train is driven by a constant torque. Figure 4b shows the torque outut of the cylinder, which comares favorably to the waveform of Figure 9. We end by combining the Throttle Valve, Intake Manifold, Fuel Injector, and Drive Train together, as shown in Figure 4a. Here we suly the same inuts to the Throttle Valve and the Drive Train as in the revious cases, but now the Throttle Valve s outut forms the inut to Intake Manifold. The Simle Controller senses m a from the intake manifold and comutes the inut to the Fuel Injector, T i, to give the stoichiometric amount of fuel. The Controller is shown in Figure 4b. To simulate its discrete nature, we convert m a to a train of ulses rior to comuting T i. The results are lotted in Figure 4c. Note in articular how the Air/Fuel ratio fluctuates due to the discrete samling. (Prior simulations which excluded the samler and treated the inut as a continuous signal gave the exact stoichiometric ratio, as one would exect.)

21 A simlified model of an internal combustion engine was develoed in the Ptolemy environment, demonstrating the alicability of the comonent-based design aroach to this roblem. Problems encountered with Ptolemy, which is still under develoment, recluded the construction and verification of the comlete model, but the erformance of individual comonents and several combinations of comonents was simulated and demonstrated. Key features of the model are its modular construction, ermitting individual asects of the engine to be abstracted or refined, deending on the roblem at hand; and the fact that different modules are modeled in different domains, ermitting study of the interaction of a continuous time hysical system with a discrete event controller. The final simulation (Figure c) showed how the system s behavior can change when such distinctions are incororated. The model develoed here is generally based on the reviously cited references, but it dearts from those efforts most notably with resect to the cylinder module. The references model the cylinder in a discrete, event-based domain. Torque outut is zero during the intake, comression, and exhaust strokes, and some constant net value during the exansion stroke. In contrast, in this roject the cylinder is modeled in the continuous domain (though as a finite state machine), and rovision is made to rovide a realistic torque outut during every stroke of the iston. Inclusion of additional cylinders, offset with resect to one another as they would be in a real engine, should therefore give a very realistic, instantaneous torque outut. The incororation of the servomotor driven inlet valve is a second innovation of this model. It remains to incororate a realistic model of the controller, using as a guide the reviously cited references. Sensor dynamics and noise contamination usually associated with their oeration should also be undertaken, and would be very easy to do in this environment. In order to stay focused on demonstrating the method, very simle models of torque generation in the cylinder were used. More sohisticated models are readily available, and this should be the next task undertaken after the controller and sensors. Next in line would be the fuel injector, which could be modeled much more accurately, then the drive train (to incororate imortant non-linearities associated with its oeration), and finally, another ass at the intake manifold could be taken. Provision was made for a load torque, but nothing was done with it in this current effort. Many different tyes of realistic loads could be modeled with it, and these could be develoed once the abovementioned refinements were comleted. 0
