摘要：In recent years, the opposed-piston engines have become increasingly popular in the automotive and aerospaceindustries. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct the research on this type of drive. The paper presents the simulationresearch of a two-stroke opposed-piston diesel engine designed for propulsion of light aircrafts. The influence ofthe change of the compression ratio on the selected engine performance was investigated (indicated mean effectivepressure, peak firing temperature and pressure, specific fuel consumption, power consumed by the compressor).The AVL BOOST software was used to perform the simulation tests. A zero-dimensional engine model equippedwith a mechanical compressor was developed. On the basis of the created model, a series of calculations was per-formed for the assumed values of the compression ratio for four engine operating points: take-off power, maximumcontinuous power and cruising power at two different altitudes. The obtained results were subjected to a compara-tive analysis and the most important conclusions connected with the influence of the change in the compressionratio on the achieved performance were presented.
