Main process aims in engine development progress

Engine Development is a step in our Design and Engineering process.

QUALITY

Quality everywhere. In particular, what we do when we design, is to extend engine’s lifetime to its limits as per the production possibilities. As a result, produced engines can last up to their desired lifetime without any particular important damages.

COST EFFECTIVE

When we design, we aim at reaching desired production costs our customer wants. Consequently our designs are cost effective for cost effective engine development projects.

ENGINEERING SPEED

We design to time. It means that optimized engineering methods we use, reduces time resources. Therefore what we engineer will fit the desired time frame.

DESIGNED FOR PRODUCTION

From concept to SOP. When an engine is in designing progress, we take necessary actions for reaching SOP from the very beginning. What are  our principles? you can find them here. In addition, parts and tooling plans, assembly and sub assembly charts and documents along with other procedures will be made for perfect SOP.

Hardware development

When we design the hardware, we ensure that individual components function perfectly. Individually and in the system as a whole. With intelligent electronics and todays technologies that work fast, we make a product secure and reliable. We also offer comprehensive solutions, from the concept to the product ready up to SOP. We support our customers during the final production of the relevant electronics components and even after it. This is hassle free engineering.

Software development

Burg Germany Engineering develops smart solutions and intelligent protocols for the engines and transmission. And we see to their implementation and accompany our customers up to series production. This way, vehicle manufacturers can rely on intelligent software, while at the same time, short innovation cycles become reality. Our innovative protocols run our engines safe, fuel efficient, powerful with minimized emissions.

If you look at today’s technologies you find them yet very complex and challenging. Our testing and calibration facilities and engineers look forward to intelligently, optimize the functions and performances in the fields of fuel economy, emission control and reliability. For sure the result will be cost effective and the safety is guaranteed.

CONCEPT TO SOP

It all starts from concept. It will be tailored base on customer’s needs. High tech methods and cost effective solutions will be provided toward complete manufacturing processes.

COMBUSTION DESIGN AND ENGINE DEVELOPMENT

The most important part of any engine design is the combustion of fuel in internal combustion engines. We understand it, master it are able to develop it. That’s the key to performance.

Combustion design in other words

Injector

Fuel injector selection is a very important part of engine development progress. Hence the created spray pattern configuration or injection speed will guaranty a uniform and homogenous flame in the combustion chamber for maximum performance. Our engineering team ensures optimum performance, fuel economy, and controlled emissions by perfectly selecting and configuring the right injectors.

GDI

The high-speed injectors we use will carry out today’s demand for GDI configurations. In addition, our GDI fuel management system relies solely on how direct injection is performed especially in high revs in comparison with MPFI (multi-port fuel injection). As a result, the engines we design carry a very sophisticated fuel and combustion technology to ensure the best fuel consumption in GDI systems along with maximum performance.

Bi Fuels

Nowadays, many engines rely on mixed fuels or switchable fuels like LPG, E10, or even CNG. When designing a Bi-Fuel engine there will be more challenges to be taken care of. To begin with, high temps, lack of fuel lubricants, and corrosions caused by non purified natural gases are those that make the injector performance and injection development more complicated.

Bi Injectors

In some cases and for special engines, there will be added injectors. Spending on what result we are looking for, we add more injectors to our designs. As a result, we achieve the desired performance with high-tech engineering and fuel injection management.

Valves

Valve shape and mechanism and its movement play a crucial role in ICE performance.

Intake Valve Bounce Back

One of the very important problems that occur in ICE is the Intake Valve Bounce Back problem. Because of that, many engines lose pressure when air is compressed at high revs. Therefore there will be a loss of power as well. Our designs completely cover all major problems and assure the best smooth valve train performance.

VVT and VVL

For much better performances and better engine functionality, we can develop VARIABLE VALVE TIMIG and VARIABLE VALVE LIFTING systems to the engine. These technologies are very accurate and sophisticated. They can be developed either for intake or for both intake and exhaust valves. Undoubtedly, correct technologies will push engines to their perfect performance.

Piston

What compresses the air and creates power in an engine is the piston. It creates the pressure, holds it, and transfers it. Therefore when we design an engine, we put a lot of attention into it.

Piston Head Shape

Compression ratio, perfect fuel, and airflow inside the combustion chamber all rely on piston shape. This is one of our very important parts of the performance that we put a lot of effort into it.

Blow-By

In milliseconds, when air is going to be compressed by a piston, there will be air leakage from around the piston where it contacts the cylinder. It not only lowers the compressed pressure but also pushes more air inside the engine block and creates other problems. In our engines, the blow-by time is longer than the compression time hence, in high revs, the engine will not lose that much pressure. In this case, the compression will be faster than a blow by time.

Flow and Compression

In the combustion chamber, airflow, fuel-air compression management, and lost control is key to performance. What we do is to optimize flow and decrease compression lost all the way down to exhaust.

Gas flow and heat analysis in the engine development process

An example of gas flow and valve heat and stress analysis altogether.

Air Flow Management

Our engines come with very high-precision airflow management technologies. The amount of flow, as well as its speed and turbulence, effects drastically change the engine performance. Therefore in the engine development progress, we calculate the total airflow system inside the engine from its beginning to its end for maximum performance.

Turbo Charging

When we turbocharge an engine, we increase the volume of air that goes into the cylinder. That means more air in a fraction of a second goes in and more pressure will be created when the piston compresses. But all that change and pressure creates many challenges which need to be taken care of. The latter also creates more heat than in non-turbo-charged engines. Hence designing a fully matched turbocharger with managed thermal issues, ensures perfect torque and power at all engine speeds.

cylinder simulation in engine development process

Ignition

In our designs, we ensure that a spark that ignites the fuel is right on time and is at its perfect place. furthermore with its right amount of fuel. We will ignite a perfect homogeneous correct amount of fuel in the engine’s combustion chamber for perfect performance and optimized fuel consumption.

Combustion simulation

As the most important part of any engine design which is the combustion of fuel in internal combustion engines, the selected spray pattern of fuel and firing sequence and combustion will be simulated to achieve the perfect performance.
