Engine models have typically been developed as a set of hard-coded computer programs with a fixed level of detail, hence, each program is applicable only to a narrow, limited set of problems. To satisfy application needs, we developed a general-purpose and flexible simulation capability which is applicable to a braod range of problems. An engine is viewed as an energy conversion system consisting of certain basic components. Models of these components were developed in the environment of a general-puprose modeling and simulation computer program OVERDRIVE. A complete engine model is formed by connecting a suitable number of these component models. The component models were developed with various levels of detail and complexity. Therefore, a user can, depending on the specific problem of interest, chosen the proper component models and build a system model to suit his specific needs. In this paper, theoretical foundations for the component models are discussed. Several engine modelling examples are presented to illustrate the application of the program. Experimental validation results for some of these models are also included.
