A Zero-D cycle simulation of the GE90-94B high bypass turbofan engine has been achieved utilizing mini-maps generated from a high-fidelity simulation. The simulation utilizes the Numerical Propulsion System Simulation (NPSS) thermodynamic cycle modeling system coupled to a high-fidelity full-engine model represented by a set of coupled 3D computational fluid dynamic (CFD) component models. Boundary conditions from the balanced, steady-state cycle model are used to define component boundary conditions in the full-engine model. Operating characteristics of the 3D component models are integrated into the cycle model via partial performance maps generated from the CFD flow solutions using one-dimensional meanline turbomachinery programs. This paper high-lights the generation of the highpressure compressor, booster, and fan partial performance maps, as well as turbine maps for the high pressure and low pressure turbine. These are actually “mini-maps” in the sense that they are developed only for a narrow operating range of the component. Results are compared between actual cycle data at a take-off condition and the comparable condition utilizing these mini-maps. The mini-maps are also presented with comparison to actual component data where possible.

In the study presented in this paper, the effect of different vehicle driving cycles on the pneumatic hybrid has been investigated. The pneumatic hybrid powertrain has been modeled in GT-Power and validated against experimental data. The GT-Power engine model has been linked with a MATLAB/simulink vehicle model. The engine in question is a single-cylinder Scania D12 diesel engine, which has been converted to work as a pneumatic hybrid. The base engine model, provided by Scania, is made in GT-power and it is based on the same engine configuration as the one used in real engine testing. Earlier studies have shown a great reduction in fuel consumption with the pneumatic hybrid compared to conventional vehicles of today. However, most of these studies have been completely of theoretical nature. In this paper, the engine model is based on and verified against experimental data, and therefore more realistic results can be expected. The intent with the vehicle driving cycle simulation is to investigate the potential of a pneumatic hybrid bus regarding reduction in fuel consumption (FC) compared to a traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) powered bus. The results show that the improvement in fuel economy due to pneumatic hybridization varies heavily with choice of drive cycle. The New York bus drive cycle shows a reduction of up to 58% for the pneumatic hybrid while the FIGE drive cycle only shows a reduction of 8%. What all cycles have in common is that the main part of the fuel consumption reduction comes from the start/stop-functionality, while regenerative braking only account for a modest part of up to about 12% of the fuel consumption. The results also show that the optimal pressure tank volume varies with drive cycles, ranging from 60 to over 500 liters.
