[edit] THEORY OF ENGINE MANIFOLD DESIGN
This text, together with its companion volume 'Design Technologies for Engine Manifolds - Wave Action Methods for IC Engines' reports upon the significant developments that have occured since the 1970s in the field of engine manifold design.
It has been said that if the cylinder is the heart of the engine, then the manifolds are the lungs. The design of manifolds for internal combustion engines has, therefore, been an important application of unstcady fiuid dynamies for many years. Different engine applications require different characteristics, and these can be achieved through the detailed design of the manifold. This design is dependent upon being able to calculate the unsteady flow of the compressible gascs flowing through the engine. This book, together with its companion volume Design Techniques for Engine Manifolds - Wave Action Methods for IC Engines, reports the significant developments that have occurred over the last twenty years and shows how mature the calculation of one-dimensional flow has become. In particular, the volumes show how the application of finite volume techniques results in more accuratc simulations than the 'traditional' Method of Characteristics' and gives the further benefit of more rapid and more robust calculations.
