Diesel engine is vital in the industry for its characteristics of low fuel consumption, high-torque, reliability, and durability. Existing diesel engine technology has reached the upper limit. It is difficult to break through the fuel consumption and emission of diesel engines. VVA (Variable Valve Actuation) is a new technology in the field of the diesel engines. In this paper, GT-Suite and ANN (artificial neural network) model are established based on engine experimental data and DoE simulation results. By inputting Intake Valve Opening crake angle (IVO), Intake Valve Angle Multiplier (IVAM) and Exhaust Valve Angle Multiplier (EVAM) into the ANN Model, and by using SA (simulated annealing algorithm), the optimized results of intake and exhaust valve lift under the target conditions are obtained.

The problem of keeping the stable starting performance of diesel engine under high altitude and low temperature conditions has been done a lot of research in the field of diesel engine, but there is a lack of research on extreme conditions such as above 2000 meters above sea level and below 0°C. Aiming at solving the cold start problem of diesel engine in extreme environment, a set of chamber system of cold start environment diesel engine was constructed to simulate environment of 3000m altitude and -20°C. A series of experimental research was conducted on cold start efficiency optimization strategy of a certain type of diesel engine at 3000m altitude and -20°C. In parallel, a diesel engine model was constructed through Chemkin to explore the influence of the three parameters of compression ratio, stroke length, and fuel injection advance angle on the first cold start cycle of diesel engine at 4000m altitude and -20°C.
