Axial piston pump is a significant part in wheeled armored vehicle, for generating hydraulic power of vehicle power system. The Axial Piston Pump is a high-performer, core functional item that is developed and applied to most of the military models in the development of military weapon systems. However, in the case of military equipment, there are conditions of limited size and weight required depending on the operating conditions and the operating environment. Under these conditions, it is required that the performance and the environmental resistance are verified to exert the required output. A unique technology is needed for the development of such equipment both in the present and in the future. Therefore, in this study, mathematical modeling of an axial piston pump is presented as a basic data for securing proprietary technology. In addition, a simulation model is designed and compared with the models of six kinds of pistons through simulation. It was established that when the number of pistons of the axial piston pump, which is the development objective, is seven, the model is suitable for the wheeled armored vehicle.

Present study was undertaken to investigate the leakage and friction of self-lubricating piston seal rings. A crank-piston type gas leakage test set-up was constructed. The piston rings were made of PTFE-polyimide composite. The free gap configurations of the seal rings were butt and step types. Eccentric tension rings were used to give the seal rings prepressure between the seal rings and cylinder wall. Two sizes of the tension rings were installed to investigate their effect on the gas leakage and friction of the seal rings. The results showed that step type seal rings are superior than the butt types. High tension spring rings resulted in low leakage and high friction loss. In order to reduce the gas leakage and friction loss of the piston seal rings, there should be compromise between the number of ring stages and prepressure of the tension rings.

The packing-free piston has become widely distributed in certain branches of instrument making and precision machine building. A large number of the most diversified instruments are now being constructed on the principle of the packing-free piston like piston manometers, vacuum manometers, hydraulic machines, dynamometers. hardness measuring instruments. power indicators, hydraulic scales, and many others. In spite of the widespread application of systems with a packing-free piston, there were practically no special papers to the theory and practice of the application of such systems. This paper describes the theoretical approaching method to get the pressure distribution profile between the piston and cylinder using finite element method.

The heat transfer of oscillating flow in a cylinder with regenerator was investigated by the moving boundary technique. The flow in regenerator was modeled by means of Brinkman Forchheimer-Extended-Darcy equation . Results showed that when piston moved toward right, velocity vectors near cylinder wall at left piston and right side of regenerator inclined to symmetric axis and velocity vectors near cylinder wall at right piston and left side of regenerator inclined to cylinder wall. And the time averaged Nusselt number was increased by 46.73% when the oscillatory frequency became twice and decreased by 31.46% when the oscillatory frequency became half. The time averaged Nusselt number was increased by 18.09% when thickness of the regenerator became twice and decreased by 7.53% when thickness of the regenerator became half. But mesh size of regenerator hardly affected the Nusselt number. And efficiency of regenerator was larger as the oscillatory frequency was smaller, thickness and mesh size of regenerator was larger.

Now a days Automobiles are becoming more important in our life, the study on piston of engine is needed because, piston's cooling and lubrication of piston have an effect on the life and efficiency of engine directly. So, this study is about nozzle part of oil jet for cooling piston in the automotive engine. Piston exposes combustion gas of over $2000^{\circ}C$ and is shocked high pressure at the time of explosion shortly. Furthermore strong friction occurs by high speed rotation. The cooling system is considered from oil jet to piston. The previous system cooled the lower part of piston only. So, efficiency was low. To improve this system, make the oil gallery in the piston, and oil flows into the gallery. The value of oil flow rate into the gallery is important. Consequently, the point of this study is the research of investigation of flow characteristics for variable Re number. This study has been modelled by a commercial CFD code FLUENT, allowing to assess its validity

A friction force measurement system using the floating liner method was developed to study the frictional behavior of piston rings. The measurement system was carefully designed to control the effect of the piston secondary motion and the temperature of cylinder wall and oil. The friction force between the barrel shaped piston ring and the cylinder liner, was measured under the condition of flooded oil supply. The measured friction forces were classified into five frictional modes with regard to the combination of predominant lubrication regimes(boundary, mixed and hydrodynamic lubrication) and stroke regions(midstroke and dead centers). The modes could be identified on the Stribeck diagram of the friction coefficients and the dimensionless number of ㎼/p, where the friction coefficients are evaluated at near the midstroke and dead centers.

An efficient method to predict the convection heat transfer coefficients on the top surface of the engine piston is proposed. The method is based on the inverse method of the thermal conduction problem and uses a numerical optimization technique. In the method, the heat transfer coefficients are numerically obtained so that the difference between analyzed temperatures from the finite element method and measured temperatures is minimized. The method can be effectively used to analyze the temperature distribution of engine pistons in case when application of prescribed-temperature boundary condition is not reasonable because of insufficient number of measured temperatures. A hollow sphere problem with an analytic solution is taken as a simple example and accuracy and efficiency is demonstrated. The method is applied to a practical large liquid petroleum gas(LPG) engine piston and the heat transfer coefficients on the top surface of the piston is successfully calculated. Resulting analyzed temperature favorably coincides with measured temperature.

It is possible to prevent a piston from contacting the cylinder by changing the shape of the piston or by applying micro-textures, such as micro-grooves or micro-holes, over the piston surface. Usually, the minimum radial clearance reaches its minimum value at the beginning of the suction stroke because the pressure around the piston is low and almost axisymmetric such that the net pressure force on the piston is not sufficiently high to support the piston from touching the cylinder. In this study, we apply a series of saw-tooth-shaped grooves on the piston surface, and numerically investigate the effects of groove depth, groove angle, and the number of grooves with radial clearance variations using a finite difference method. We conduct a dynamic analysis of the piston for various changes in groove geometries to obtain the minimum radial clearance variation for the entire compression cycle. The minimum radial clearance increases while friction loss decreases when we apply the series of saw-tooth-shaped grooves on the piston. In addition, we analyze the impact of the change in the groove shape variable due to changes in radial clearance. Leakage variations are relevant to radial clearance, but have almost no effect on the groove parameters.

This paper presents the method of piston temperature measurement and its data under various engine operating conditions. In case of high speed engine, the thermocouple wires must be guided from moving piston to stationary place with carful attention. for this purpose L_LINK SYSTEM was made and assembled to a passenger car engine on the test bench and then the piston temperature was successfully measured. The tested engine speed ranged from 1,000 to 4,000 rpm with 500 rpm increments. Not only the effects of engine speed and load on the piston temperature but those of spark timing, detonation, coolant temperature and Reynolds number based on inlet air condition were studied form the measurement obtained by this L_LINK SYSTEM.

Hydrodynamic lateral forces acting on circumferentially grooved and tapered pistons in hydraulic piston pumps are analyzed for the case where the axis of piston and cylinder are tilted with each other. The effects of grooves and tilting on lateral force and leakage flowrate are discussed from the analytical solution of one-dimensional Reynolds equation. The analytical solution is in accordance with the numerical solution of two-dimensional Reynolds equation as the number of grooves increases.
