디이젤 엔진은 피스톤이 실린더 내를 왕복 운동하면서 압축행정에서 연료의 연소에 의해 발생된 고열을 받아 고온에서 작동되기 때문에 피스톤 헤드에서 받은 열은 속히 아래부분으로 전달시 키고 동시에 실린더 벽으로 전달되게 하여야 한다. 여기서 열이 문제가 되는 요소를 생각해 보면, (1) 고압 : 연소 최고폭발압력이 높기 때문에 압력상승률도 커져 격렬한 연소상태가 된다. (2) 고온 : 격심한 가스 유동과 실린더 직경이 크기 때문에 피스톤 헤드부의 온도가 높아진다. (3) 연소생성물 중에 엔진 및 윤활유에 악 영향을 주는 성분이 많다. (4) 경량, 저가격 구조 때문에 열적 및 역학적 변형이 일어나기 쉽다. (5) 사용조건이 가혹해 연료가 이상 현상을 가져온다. 위의 요소들을 가지고 온도의 분포, 열의 전달과정, 피스톤 냉각 등에 대해서 알아본다.

The influence of sine wave striated surface roughness on load carrying capacity of a bearing is studied for thin film effect of slider bearing. A Reynolds equation appropriate for slider bearing is used in this paper for analysis and it is discussed using finite difference method of central difference scheme. For a slider bearing with sine wave simple roughness form, several parameters such as pressure, load capacity and shear stress of the bearing can be obtained and also this results can be stored in sequential data file for latter analysis. After all, their distribution can be displayed and analyzed easily by using the matlab GUI technique. The parameters such as amplitude, number of waviness and slope of the surface are used for discussing the load carrying capacity of the rectangular bearing. The results reported in this paper should be applied to the other slider bearing such as rectangular or round embossed surface of slider bearing.

A new numerical solution of the elastohydrodynamic lubrication(EHL) problem of an axially profiled cylindrical roller is presented. A finite difference method and the Newton-Raphson method are used to solve the nonlinear system equations. A non-uniform grid system is adopted to reduce the number of grid points and to obtain accurate solution. For two different types of profiles which have similar elastostatic pressure distribution, the EHL results show large differences. Especially the difference in film shape is larger than in pressure distribution. Therefore, the magnitude of the minimum film thickness should be a major criteria to design the axial profile of the roller. Variations of the minimum film thickness with dimensionless parameters show considerably different behavior from those of infinite solution and show a good agreement with the experimental data in literatures. Present numerical scheme can be used generally in the analysis of three-dimensional EHL problem.

Development of an engine with good fuel economy is very important for successful implementation of long endurance miniature UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles). In the study, a 4-stroke glow-plug engine was modified to a gasoline-fueled spark-ignition engine. Engine tests measuring performance and friction losses were conducted to tune a simulation program for performance prediction. It has been found that excessive friction losses are caused by insufficient lubrication at high speeds. The simulation program predicts that engine power and fuel economy get worse with high altitude due to increasing portion of friction losses. The simulation results suggest quantitative guidelines for further development of a practical engine.

현재 널리 보급되어 있는 볼베어링은 몇개의 볼에 의해 작동하기에 회전이 불균일하며 진동과 소음이 크다. 이는 고속에서 한계를 갖는 주된 원인이 되고 있다. 또한 그리스의 손실로 인한 수명의 단축이나, 유출된 그리스로 인한 손상은 제품의 내구성에 치명적인 결과를 초래한다. 더욱이 기존에 사용하는 소형 정밀 베어링은 전량 수입에 의존하고 있으며, 기술 선진국의 기술이전 회피로 개발이 어려우며, 수입물량도 확보하기 어려운 상황이다. 이를 극복하기 위한 하나의 방법이 볼과 그리스를 대신해서 유체의 압력을 이용한 유체동압베어링의 개발이다. 유체동압을 이용한 베어링의 장점은 그리스의 누유가 없고, 이로 인한 설계상의 제약이 없으며, 볼베어링으로는 불가능한 고속회전에 적합하고, 안전성이 뛰어나며 회전이 균일하여 제품의 신뢰성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 유체동압 함유소결함유베어링은 진동과 소음이 적고, 저렴하며 구조가 간단하고, 급유기를 필요로 하지 않는 자기윤활(self-lubrication)특성과 생산성 등 많은 장점을 가지고 그 사용범위가 점차 광범위하게 넓어지고 있지만, 저속상태에서의 유막형성, 고속상태에서 기름의 누유, 고하중상태에서 강도와 기공의 눌어붙음과 출발과 정지 시에 발생하는 두 금속간의 직접 접촉을 피할 수 없는 것과 같은 해결해야 하는 문제를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점을 해결하기 위하여 유체동압 함유소결베어링이 마찰특성을 알아보고자 한다.

The influence of round embossed surface on slider bearing characteristics and its load carrying capacity is discussed for thin film effect of embossed slider bearing. For the numerical computation of lubrication parameters such as pressure, load capacity and shear stress that are normalized and a Reynolds equation is used for the analysis of embossed slider bearing characteristics. For this purpose, the finite difference method of central difference scheme is used in this study. In a slider bearing with embossed form, several simulation parameters such as pressure, load capacity and shear stress of the bearing can be obtained according to independent parameters such as the slope of the slider bearing and number of embossing in the upper slider. Also this results can be summarized and be stored in sequential data file for latter analysis. After all, their distribution of the pressure and shear stress parameters can be displayed and be analyzed easily by using the developed program with matlab GUI technique. The independent parameters such as a number of embossing and a slope of the embossed surface slider are used for discussing simulation parameters of pressure distribution, shear stress and load carrying capacity of the round embossing. These study results reported in this paper should be applied to the other shaped slider bearing with a rectangular embossed surface or rectangular waved surface.

The profile of the roller in the axial direction is the main design factor in order to increase endurance life against the contact fatigue due to the stress concentration along the edge of the roller. Even under the elas-tohydrodynamic lubrication (ehl) conditions, the stress concentration along the edge of the roller greatly worsens the fatigue life both for the roller and contacting body. In this study, roller contacts of finite axial length are studied for the film thickness and pressure of ehl. For the real contact behaviors under the ehl conditions, multigrid and multi-level method is applied so that much higher loading conditions can be investigated. Several axial profiles of roller are investigated to verify how both ehl film and pressure are generated and some of them are recommended for the ehl contact condition.

In general, a valve body of the automatic transmission(AT) is controlled by the clutch, the brake and lubricating oil flow in a hydraulic system and lubricant flow for each valve can be adjusted independently. To increase the lifetime of AT, the lubrication flow rate in a valve body for a 6 speed AT based parallel hybrid electric vehicle must be provided with proper oil distribution and control. In this study, we carried out several experiments without the inner parts of AT and with a AT assembly. The variation of the flow rate on oil temperature and pressure between an oil supply port and the outlets of the lubrication port was evaluated and analyzed. In the case of AT without the inner parts, it was evident that as the oil required for an operation of the clutch and brake was discharged from the outlet port, the flow rate from each lubrication port is decreased. However, the flow rate of the AT assembly was slightly increased. In addition, the lubrication flow rate was increased with increasing the oil temperature, and also it was reduced with increasing the oil pressure. Details of the resulting data are discussed.

In recent times, surface texturing methods have been widely applied to reduce friction and improve the reliability of machine components such as parallel thrust bearings, mechanical face seals, and piston rings. In this study, a numerical analysis is carried out to investigate the effect of uniformly spaced hemispherical dimples on the lubrication characteristics of a slider bearing using a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, FLUENT. The pressure distributions, load capacity, leakage flowrate, and friction force are strongly affected by the dimple diameter and the number of dimples. In particular, the load capacity and friction force decrease linearly with the dimple density whereas the leakage increases. These results can be used for designing the optimum dimple characteristics in order to improve the lubrication performance of slider bearings, for which further studies are required.

The electric controlled marine diesel engine has fuel pump generating the high pressurized fuel for fuel injection to combustion chamber via a common rail. Fuel pump consists of a cam-roller system. Journal bearing installed between a roller and a cam-roller pin is subjected to fluctuating heavy and instant loads by cam lift. First, Kinematic analysis is carried out to predict bearing loads during one cycle acting on the journal bearing. Second, flexible multi-body dynamic analysis and transient elasto-hydrodynamic(EHD) lubrication analysis for journal bearing considering elastic deformation of cam-roller pin, roller and bearing are conducted using AVL EXCITE/PU software to predict lubrication performance. The clearance ratio and journal groove shape providing lubrication oil are important parameter in bearing design having good performance and can be changed easier than other design parameters such as diameter, width, oil supply pressure and bearing material grade. Generally, journal bearing performance is represented by the minimum oil film thickness(MOFT) and peak oil film pressure(POFP). As well as the traditional design parameters(MOFT, POFP), in this study, temperature rise of lubrication oil is also evaluated through the side leakage flow of supplied oil. By the evaluating MOFT, POFP and temperature rise, the optimum bearing clearance ratio is decided.
