  1. Pavel Němeček, Ondřej Vysoký, Michal Šindelka Czech Technical University in Prague Faculty of Electrical Engineering Department of Control Engineering Modelling and Control of Linear Combustion Engine (LCE)

  2. Internal CombustionEngines • inlineV • flat (boxer) Crank shaftturns the piston's up and down motion into circular motion

  3. Series Hybrid Car • Gasoline engine turns a generator • Generator can either charge the batteries or power an electric motor that drives the transmission • Thus, the gasoline engine never directly powers the vehicle • and no rotation needed ?!

  4. single hit – easy industrial staplers how to achieve repetitive (periodic) motion??? by proper configuration and control Linear Combustion Engines

  5. LCE – animation • Two-stroke, Two oppositecylinders(2x50 ccm) • Pistons directly connected by rod (no crankshaft) • Direct air assisted fuel injection • Contains linear electric motor-generator - enable starting of LCE - provide conversion to electric energy - enable intervention when misfire occurs • No mechanical output, application for serial hybrid vehicles • Control, control, control !

  6. Schematic diagram of LCE

  7. Advantages of the LCE • Elimination of friction losses - associated with the crankshaft and it’s accessories - piston friction reduction (no angular loading) => higher efficiency • High power density • Compact shape (allow non-standard inbuilt) • Reduced amount of moving parts - increase durability - simplify mechanical construction - simplify lubrication • Compression ration is not fixed => theoretically multi-fuel operation is enabled

  8. Phases of LCE research • Designing of the simple model, which allow study of the basic LCE behavior • Building up of an experimental prototype of the LCE and validation of the model • Control algorithm design for achieving a steady operation • Controller’s optimization with respect some criteria of quality (efficiency, emission, power etc.) • Design of a power management strategy of a serial hybrid vehicle with the LCE as the main power unit

  9. Model of the LCE nonlinear scavenging, non homogenous mixture3 order

  10. Model of Electric motor-generator

  11. Model of Combustion Engine

  12. Block diagram of the control system

  13. Requirements for the control systemof the linear electric motor-generator • Collision avoiding between the piston and the cylinder head • Maximization of drained electric power in each cycle • Prevention of the LCE from stopping when a misfire occurs • Starting of the LCE (with respect to a actual LCE state)

  14. Experimental results • Long term steady operation was achieved • Max. drained electric power: 400 W at 1200 rpm

  15. Experimental results

  16. Experimental results

  17. Video – LCE prototype in operation

  18. Conclusion and further work Conclusion • Long term steady operation was achieved • Efficiency of the present experimental prototype is low, but it allow study of the system behavior Further work • Optimization of the thermodynamical cycle • Design and construction of a new prototype in cooperation with mechanical engineers to increase efficiency and durability of the LCE
