Furthermore, the main characteristics of turbulent flows and their consequences for the theory are known. Students are also familiar with the various computer-aided approaches to modeling turbulent flows and can apply these turbulence models in an industrial context. A further learning outcome is the independent application of a CFD software suite including the generation of computational meshes in a team in order to answer a technical question. Students will be able to design the computational meshes in such a way that both relevant areas of the computational domain are provided with a high mesh element density and mesh-independent results are produced.

The seminar lecture deals with the various principles of fuel energy conversion and the main requirements for internal combustion engines. The thermodynamic relationships of the engine process are demonstrated using comparative processes. The definition of the different efficiencies is discussed. These relationships are applied in the treatment of important parameters from combustion engine construction. A classification of combustion engines according to different characteristics, the type of process, the combustion sequence, the type of ignition and the kinematics leads to the treatment of selected aspects of engine technology.
