Turbocharging of Spark Ignited Wankel engine for High Altitude Application Using 1-D Simulation Approach
Abstract: Wankel engines are increasingly finding their application in unmanned aerial vehicles, especially where high power-to-weight ratio is of utmost importance. This advantage makes the Wankel engines outperform the reciprocating engines despite several shortfalls. 1-D simulation model of the Wankel engine has been constructed from commercially available software for reciprocating piston engines. This model was then used to study the matching of turbocharger for the required application and the effect of …
