Abstract
This paper describes the application of a time domain systems approach to t he modelling of a reciprocating engine. The engine model includes the varyi ng inertia effects resulting from the motion of the piston and con-rod. The cylinder pressure measured under operating conditions is used to force the model and the resulting motion compared with the measured response. The re sults obtained indicate that the model is very good. (C) 1999 Academic Pres s.
