Tutorial — Ricardo Wave

Set initial pressures (default 1 bar) and temperatures (default 300 K) for the intake and exhaust boundaries.

Performance indicators across the RPM range.

A hierarchical list of all components currently in your model. ricardo wave tutorial

Ambients, cylinders, ducts, injectors, and throttles. Mechanical Elements: Turbo shafts and engine blocks. Control Elements: Sensors and actuators for advanced logic.

Add compressor and turbine blocks connected by a turbo shaft. You must input compressor and turbine performance maps (found in the TC map folder) to simulate boost. Set initial pressures (default 1 bar) and temperatures

Efficiency of fuel usage. Volumetric Efficiency: How well the engine "breathes".

Place junctions (ambients) and connect them with ducts to represent the intake and exhaust manifolds. Ambients, cylinders, ducts, injectors, and throttles

Use the Woschni correlation (the default model) to simulate thermal distribution across the cylinder head, piston, and liner.
