Computational Fluid Dynamics Technology Applied in Flow Analysis in Diesel Engine's Cooling Water Jacket

Using computational fluid dynamics software, the fluid flow in cooling water jacket of HPD diesel engine is studied. Results show that all parts in A Row cylinders cooling water jacket have a better cooling effect, such as in cylinder block and in fire deck. And cooling effect for each cylinder is uniform. Total pressure loss through cooling water jacket is 32.6kPa. The size of water up-holes is better for cooling cylinder head, which can also provide boundary conditions for further calculating temperature field of cylinder head.
