Motivation• Fuel economy
• System design, performance, and component sizing
• Simulation of advanced computer controlled (“smart”) cooling systems in vehicles necessitates the coupling of commercially available cycle analysis software (GT-Power) to vehicle and engine fluid flow systems
Goals
• Develop a code capable of energy based cooling control and multi-variable optimization
• Conduct advanced component analysis (electric fan, electric coolant pump, actuators) to achieve reduced accessory power and improved engine temperature control

Problems Encountered and Solutions Developed
1. Linking external (VECSS) charge-air-cooler model to GT-Power and the need to specify temperature and pressure drops of intake air in GT-Power
• Actuate wall temperature with large heat transfer multiplier to achieve specified ?T
• Tracking PID controller in GT-Power for pressure loss coeff. actuation to achieve specified ?P
• Similar strategy to be used for linking external EGR cooler to GT-Power
2. Structure interface heat transfer data output unavailable for external model
• Examples - ring to cylinder wall heat transfer, valve to valve seat heat transfer
• Gamma Tech. staff modified code to make structure interface heat transfer data available as an RLT quantity
3. E-VECSS has a significantly increased run time compared to VECSS
• Reason: modeling all cylinders w/ wave dynamics vs. one cylinder w/o waves dynamics
• Increased data & accuracy vs. run time increase (~100 fold increase in run time)
• Faster CPU as possible solution (currently use an ECS K7S5A motherboard w/ AMD Athlon XP 1700, 256 MB RAM non-ECC)
