The two stroke engine has a wide range of application, especially in the field of recreational vehicles, handheld products and small two-wheelers. This is due to the advantages of the two stroke working principle: high power density, low weight, and low costs. In order to reduce the system-inherent disadvantages of the loop-scavenged two stroke engine developments using latest methods are necessary. One of these methods is the CFD simulation of the scavenging process, the high pressure cycle and the injection process. Reliable predictive simulation in the early development phase of a new engine is required to shorten the development time and to reduce prototype and test bench costs. In previous investigations (1) [SAE 2005-32-0099; JSAE 20056552] the strategies for the simulation and the requirements for a predictive simulation were discussed. Finally a new methodology which bases on the combination of 3-dimensional (3D) and 0/1-dimensional (0/1D) CFD simulation was presented.
