IC Engine time step and crank angle doesn't make sense
 
Hi all,

When doing an engine simulation in ICE, I get the following thing happening:

The crank angle increment per time step is always 0.25°. However the time step changes from time to time.

How one explains the crank angle increment remains the same, but the time step varies. It puzzles me :confused:
