Abstract
This paper presents a theoretical analysis of the performance of an four-stroke internal combustion engine, used in vehicles marketed in the national territory. All engine parameters, necessary for computacional analysis, and experimental data obtained in dynamometer, were ceded by an automaker present in Brazil. These data refer to tests using ethanol as fuel. The computer simulations were performed using Diesel-RK® software, that is a Russian origin tool, and is free for academic use. The computational model was validated by the available experimental data, and the average error of all the simulations performed, was 10.6% to specific fuel consumption, 11.2% to air mass flow rate, and 2.21% to torque.
