Acoustics influence on internal combustion engine volumetric efficiency is obvious and the use of modeling to represent its effect is largely spread. In this regard, LMS has developed a new 1D model library, namely CFD1D, to model engine intake and exhaust lines under LMS Imagine. Lab AMESim platform. Simulations have been performed at IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEN) to compare duct system modeling with two different approaches: on the one side, with the brand new 1D library and on the other side, with state-of-the-art 0D lumped parameter models (IFP-Engine library under the same platform). This paper aims at comparing 0D and 1D modeling strategies for two naturally-aspirated spark-ignition engines: a single-cylinder propane-fueled engine and a Honda K20A engine with a dedicated intake system used for a cylinder deactivation concept development. For each application, a 0D and a 1D intake system model is realized, based on real engine test-bed geometry.
