0-D engine models#
PyChemkin offers two types of 0-D engine models: the Homogeneous Charged Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine model and the Spark Ignition (SI) engine model. These 0-D engine models simulate the combustion process (or the lack of, in case of a misfire) inside an engine cylinder between the Intake Valve Close (IVC) and the Exhaust Valve Open (EVO) when the cylinder is considered as a closed system. The Chemkin Theory manual has detailed descriptions of these 0-D engine models.
The examples show the steps of setting up simulations with different Chemkin engine models.
