Because of the advancement of digital computers and software technologies, simulation methods have been used to reduce time and costs. A lot of simulation methods have been developed for the improvement of charging efficiency on the intake and exhaust system of engines. In this study, as a basic step for the development of the gas flow simulation program for the intake and exhaust system, the gas flow in a pipe-orifice system was calculated with three algorithms(Method of Characteristics, MacCormack Method for conservation, and MacCoramck Method for nonconservation). The calculated results using three numerical algorithms were compared with measured result to verify the calculation accuracy.
