ABSTRACT
The internal combustion engines have a leading role in the world as a power plant for about a century. Thanks to advances in materials, manufacturing, computer analysis and design tools in the current 30 years; the internal combustion engines can attain higher standards of performance. Especially, strict legislations on emissions, fuel scarceness and social and economic factors are bringing new targets for current engine systems for the following years. Therefore, improved diesel engine models via computer simulations will be needed to supply those demands in the future.
