What will I learn?

This course offers a straightforward, hands-on guide to designing and fine-tuning a modern 1.6L spark-ignition engine. You'll gain expertise in thermodynamic cycles, actual versus ideal performance, turbo boosting, knock thresholds, BSFC, and overall efficiency. Discover how to determine compression ratios, valve timing, EGR systems, and control methods, then convert cycle analysis into practical goals, testing protocols, and a clear implementation plan.

Elevify advantages

Develop skills

  • Master SI cycle modelling to quickly calculate Otto, Atkinson, and Miller cycle efficiencies.
  • Size engine performance by estimating BMEP, BSFC, power, and torque for a 1.6L unit.
  • Design knock-resistant engines by selecting compression, boost, and fuel parameters for dependable power.
  • Perform rapid calibration of spark timing, lambda, EGR, and VVT for smooth drivability and low emissions.
  • Apply real-world adjustments to ideal cycles accounting for heat losses, friction, and pumping effects.

What our students say

Your lessons are perfect. I got the one-year package and finally have the chance to follow several topics I'm interested in without having to switch platforms... I appreciate everything you do, and I've already recommended you to others...
