A small four-stroke carburetted SI engine is a mechanism which normally apply to motorcycle, lawn mowers or small machines that use gasoline. The purpose of this project is to assess the extent to which the performance of this engine can be taken as a benchmark for the development of the packaging. The modelling to develop one-dimensional model of a small four-stroke carburetted SI engine is done by GT-POWER software. Once the model is developed, it will undergo to the process of simulation, then performance parameters will be recorded for investigation. In addition to the simulation method, the experiments were also carried out is done by a single test bed dynamometer as. After taken the performance parameter result, comparison of parameters between experiment and simulation methods will be carried out. After completion of the two methods, the results showed that all parameters not valid for the speed of 2600rpm because there is a high percentage difference. Therefore, simulation modelling should be improved so that this one-dimensional can be use for benchmarking in order to improve future small four-stroke packaging.
