Novel Exergy-wise predictive control of Internal Combustion Engines
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Exergy is an effective metric to evaluate the performance of energy systems. Exergy analysis has been extensively used to study and understand loss mechanisms of Internal Combustion Engines (ICEs). However knowledge from exergy analysis has not been used for control of ICEs. This paper presents the first application of exergy-based control to ICEs. In this paper, an exergy model is developed for an advanced ICE with low temperature combustion mode that has higher efficiency compared to conventional diesel and spark ignition engines. The exergy model is based on quantification of the Second Law of Thermodynamic (SLT) and irreversibilities which are not identified in commonly used First Law of Thermodynamics (FLT) analysis. An optimal control method is developed based on minimizing irreversibilities and exergy losses. The new controller finds the optimum combustion phasing at every given engine load to minimize exergy destruction/loss. Application of the new developed control algorithm is demonstrated for a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) case study. The results show that by using the exergy-based optimal control strategy, the engine output power and exhaust exergies are maximized.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
