  • Two-stroke piston engines often employ turbocharging coupled with exhaust resonance technology to address air intake challenges at high altitudes. However, for four-cylinder engines, exhaust gas blocking and pressure interference caused by in-phase exhaust in the exhaust resonance system lead to performance degradation at high altitudes. Therefore, a dual resonance tube exhaust system was designed and optimized based on the exhaust pressure wave propagation theory and a genetic algorithm. Three-dimensional fluid dynamics simulations were conducted to verify that the dual resonance tube exhaust system solved the problem of exhaust gas blocking and pressure interference while effectively utilizing pressure waves to optimize the exhaust backpressure distribution. The simulation and optimization results showed that the engine equipped with the dual exhaust resonance system maintained the original power and achieved a slight increase under conditions up to an altitude of 5000 m. Under most high-altitude conditions above 5000 m, the optimized power increased by more than 5% compared with the original engine, and the improvement increased with altitude. At a high altitude of 10 000 m, the maximum power increase reached 34.7%. The study confirmed that the dual resonance tube exhaust system can effectively solve the problems of exhaust gas blocking and pressure interference caused by in-phase exhaust in a four-cylinder engine.
