The role of 1D simulation tool is growing as the engine system is becoming more complex with the adoption of a variety of new technologies. For the reliability of the 1D simulation results, it is necessary to improve the accuracy and applicability of the combustion model implemented in the 1D simulation tool. Since the combustion process in SI engine is mainly determined by the turbulence, many models have been concentrating on the prediction of the evolution of in-cylinder turbulence intensity. In this study, two turbulence models which can resemble the turbulence intensity close to that of 3D CFD tool were utilized. The first model is dedicated to predicting the evolution of turbulence intensity during intake and compression strokes so that the turbulence intensity at the spark timing can be estimated properly. The second model is responsible for predicting the turbulence intensity of burned and unburned zone during the combustion process.

Large-eddy simulation (LES) applications for internal combustion engine (ICE) flows are constantly growing due to the increase of computing resources and the availability of suitable CFD codes, methods and practices. The LES superior capability for modeling spatial and temporal evolution of turbulent flow structures with reference to RANS makes it a promising tool for describing, and possibly motivating, ICE cycle-to-cycle variability (CCV) and cycle-resolved events such as knock and misfire. Despite the growing interest towards LES in the academic community, applications to ICE flows are still limited. One of the reasons for such discrepancy is the uncertainty in the estimation of the LES computational cost. This in turn is mainly dependent on grid density, the CFD domain extent, the time step size and the overall number of cycles to be run. Grid density is directly linked to the possibility of reducing modeling assumptions for sub-grid scales.

The recent development pace of the automotive technology is so rapid worldwide. Especially in a green car, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) have been studied a lot due to their significant effects on the urban driving. In the vehicle energy management strategy study, the driving speed is assumed to be known in advance, however the speed is not given in a real world. Accordingly, the prediction of vehicle speed is very important. In this study, we study the prediction methodology for the speed prediction using deep learning. Based on the vehicle driving speed data, the supervised deep learning has been used and the speed prediction accuracy using deep learning shows accurate results comparing to the actual speed. The supervised deep learning is used which is suitable for driving cycle database. As a result, the speed prediction after few seconds is feasible.
