Correlations between geometrical and functional parameters for aeronautical reciprocating engines

摘要

A series of conditions are imposed on an aviation internal combustion engine, like: sufficient and constant power until it reaches theoretical altitude, low weight, low fuel consumption, safety functioning, etc. As a result, while being designed, there is a need to optimally correlate the engine's geometrical and functional parameters. This becomes difficult due to the high number of parameters which appear due to very complex and diverse phenomena. The method and the calculus program presented here, offer a judicious approach to performing the calculus for engine configuration, which will allow the correct correlation of these parameters, by presenting their influence on the power and fuel consumption, reducing the volume of calculus considerably.
