Fig. 3.29 Comparison <strong>of</strong> experiment <strong>and</strong> CFD computation.<br />

Comparisons <strong>of</strong> the measured <strong>and</strong> calculated SEV-SRV <strong>and</strong> TEV-SRV pr<strong>of</strong>iles are given in<br />

Figs. 3.29 <strong>and</strong> 3.30. It will be observed that the order <strong>of</strong> accuracy <strong>of</strong> the calculation, over the<br />

entire scavenging flow regime, is very high indeed. For those who may be familiar with the<br />

findings <strong>of</strong> Sweeney et al. [3.23], observe that the order <strong>of</strong> accuracy <strong>of</strong> correlation <strong>of</strong> the<br />

theoretical predictions with the experimental data is considerably better in Figs. 3.29 <strong>and</strong> 30<br />

than it was in the original paper. The reason for this is that the measured data for the variance<br />

<strong>of</strong> the flow from the port design direction acquired by Smyth [3.17] <strong>and</strong> Kenny [3.31] was<br />

applied to the CFD calculations for those same modified Yamaha cylinders to replace the plug<br />

flow assumption originally used. It is highly significant that the accuracy is improved, for this<br />

moves the CFD calculation even closer to becoming a proven design technique.<br />
