  • Patent number: 12314641
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for a computer-implemented method for simulating operation of a physical system represented by a plurality of mesh cells. A plurality of pre-simulations of the physical system are performed, where a pre-simulation determines an output metric value for each mesh cell based on a plurality of input metric values. A dimension reduction is performed on results of the pre-simulations to generate condensed training data, and a simulation model is generated using a machine learning algorithm to train a plurality of sub-models for simulating output metric values for the plurality of mesh cells based on the condensed training data. The simulation model is configured to provide simulation inputs to the trained sub-models to generate an output metric value for each of the plurality of mesh cells.

  • Patent number: 9903265
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for estimating water storage in a charge air cooler (CAC). In one example, an amount of water accumulating in the CAC may be based on an output of an oxygen sensor positioned downstream of the CAC and ambient humidity. Further, engine actuators may be adjusted to purge condensate from the CAC and/or reduce condensate formation based on the amount of water inside the CAC.

  • Patent number: 9464562
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for regulating air flow through a charge air cooler. In one example, an air flow regulating element may be positioned in a tank of the charge air cooler, the air flow regulating element including a cylindrical barrel valve rotatable about a rotational axis to adjust air flow through cooling tubes in the charge air cooler. A position of the barrel valve may be based on a mass air flow rate and/or a temperature at an outlet of the charge air cooler.
