Micro Abstract:
The level set method is used to understand and design oil jets used to cool pistons of internal combustion engines. Different jet configurations ranging from laminar to atomized are presented and compared with experimental results. Exploiting the flexibility of the space-time finite element method, the reciprocating movement of the piston is modeled by using mesh deformation. The resulting multi-physics simulation realistically represents the main flow features.
