Generally quantity of supply oil for piston ring lubrication in an internal combustion engine may be insufficient to fill the entire volume formed in the clearance between piston ring and cylinder liner. Thus oil starvation condition should be considered for the analysis of piston ring lubrication. In order to reasonably estimate amount of oil left on the cylinder liner, adequate boundary condition should be adapted for the analysis of ring pack lubrication. In this analysis of ring pack lubrication of an internal combustion engine, oil starvation and open-end boundary conditions are considered at inlet and outlet of piston rings. It is revealed that piston rings are operated under oil starvation in most operating cycle and the result with these conditions are quite different from that with fully-flooded assumption.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the friction characteristics of piston assembly. The friction of piston assembly is composed of ring pack and skirt friction. In this paper, the theoretical models of piston ring pack and piston skirt were presented. The mixed lubrication theory was considered to calculate friction force of piston ring and skirt. from the results, most of friction in piston assembly occurred at the piston ring park. The piston assembly usually showed hydrodynamic lubrication characteristics. but the top and bottom dead centers showed mixed lubrication characteristics. The piston skirt was much affected by radial clearance and load, but ring was significantly influenced by ring tension.

To make high accuracy cutting of long materials and a piston for the engines it must be necessary to keep the thermal stability of spindle and tail stock in CNC lathe. If a object is clamped at the ends the thermal expansion and cutting process generate the deflection of cutting objects. Especially in the case of a piston ring piston ovality and piston profile the influences of deflection are very serious. In order to solve the problems most of piston cutting are worked under simply support. However the prob-lems exist yet. Therefore this paper proposes the new structure of tail stock which can compensates the deflection.

Piston slap is one of the sources producing engine block surface vibration and mechanical noise. To analyze piston slap-induced vibration, a realistic but simple model is proposed and verified experimentally. A piston is modeled by 3 degree of freedom system and an impact point between piston skirt and cylinder wall by 2 degree of freedom system. Numerical simulation estimates impact forces of piston in cylinder, and the engine block surface vibration response is predicted by the convoluton of the impact forces with measured impulse responses. Experimental verification on the predicted response has been also performed by using a commercial 4-cylinder diesel engine. the predicted and experimental vibration responses confirm that the suggested model is practically useful.

This study describes compressive characteristics of marine clay at southwestern coast in Korea by large block and piston samples. Through the analysis of disturbance effect and various consolidation test, consolidation result shows that volumetric strain from large block samples is lower than piston samples and compression index of large block samples is larger than piston samples value. We suggest new empirical equation of compression index by the effect of compression index following sampling method. If consolidation settlement is presumed using empirical equation of compression index, the resort will be more reasonable in predicting settlement than that obtained by the decision of compressibility characteristics from piston samples.

저속 2행정 디젤엔진의 대형화 및 고출력화에 따라 피스톤링 및 실린더라이너 등은 보다 가혹한 마찰/마모 조건에 노출되고 있으며 비정상적인 마찰/마모 등 윤활 관련 문제가 빈번하게 발생되고 있다. 이러한 마모 문제를 해결하기 위해 윤활 설계 개선, 윤활유 성능 개선, 마모 메카니즘 규명 등의 다양한 관점에서 대책안들이 연구되어 제시되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실린더라이너의 이상 마모 현상 등을 방지하기 위한 윤활 및 마모 모니터링 기술 동향에 대해 살펴보고 윤활유 모니터링 시스템 개발 사례에 대해 소개 하고자 한다.

질화규소는 고온에서 고강도, 고경도, 내열성, 내식성 등의 우수한 성질을 가지고 있기 때문에 열교환기, 공구, 기계밀봉(mechanical seal), 자동차용 엔진부품중의 피스톤 및 실린더 링 등의 중요한 부품의 재료로 크게 부목받고 있다. 이러한 질화 규소의 고온에서의 마모, 마찰거동이 중요한 부품으로의 활용범위를 넓히고 또한 기능성을 향상시키기 위해서 고온에서의 마모, 마찰거동에 대한 연구 및 이해가 절대적으로 필요하다. 공유결합성이 강한 질화규소의 소결시에 첨가되는 첨가제나 제조공정에서 들어갈 수 있는 불순물들은 소결체의 입자모양이나 입계에 존재하는 상의 점도를 변화시켜 고온에서의 기계적성질을 저하시키는 것으로 알려졌다.

Dynamic seals have been continue to be one of the major technical problems facing stirling engine designers. Most of the modern engines use some version of the dry ring seal for piston and displacer seals. Friction power losses associated with seals are typically several percent of gross output power, with piston ring seals usually being the main contributor. Much effort has been expended to develop the seal mechanism of piston, but the performance of these seal devices is very poor. This study was conducted to examine the efficiency of the various types of the trial-made piston seal mechanism with reference to leakage of working fluid and friction losses. This paper described the successful hardware implementation of a stainless steel bellows element in stirling engine application with test data in power performance. The indicated power by use of the bellows was more than two times as that by use of the piston ring types. As the result of this study, bellows was provide as a reliable and efficient seal mechanism for any stirling engine application.
