Summary: | Intake manifold system is one of the important component in the engine system which functions to evenly distribute the air flows into every cylinder of the engine. With the restricted air intake rule regulation, the intake air system for a car must be properly designed in order to minimize the performance losses caused by the restrictor. The paper presents the study on the effects of intake design parameter towards the performance of the engine and then improves the performance of previous intake manifold system. This study starts with the development of Honda CBR 600RR engine model and intake manifold system model using GT-Power engine simulation software to be used for the simulation purposes. After developing the reference engine model, the parametric study was carried out to study the effect of the intake manifold parameter design on the engine performance. The optimization process was then performed to achieve the target of improvement which has already been set prior to performing the optimization. The final results show an increase up to 4.83% and 4.45% of torque and air flow rate respectively at the desired operating range of engine speed. |
