Application of a Model-Based Controller for Improving Internal Combustion Engines Fuel Economy

Improvements in internal combustion engine efficiency can be achieved with proper thermal management. In this work, a simulation tool for the preliminary analysis of the engine cooling control is developed and a model-based controller, which enforces the coolant flow rate by means of an electrically...
