A gerotor pump is suitable for oil hydraulics of machine tools, automotive engines, compressors, constructions and other various applications. In particular the pump is an essential machine element that feeds lubricant oil in an automotive engine. The subject of this paper is the theoretical analysis of internal lobe pump whose the main components are the two rotors. Usually the outer one is characterized by lobes with a circular shape, while the inner rotor profile is determined as a conjugate to the other. For this reason the first topic presented here is the definition of the geometry of the rotors starting from the design parameters. The choice of these parameters is subject to some limitations in order to limit the pressure angle between the rotors. Now we will consider the design optimization. The first step is the determination of the instantaneous flow rate as a function of the design parameter. This allows us to calculate three performance indexes commonly used for the study of positive displacement pumps the flow rate irregularity, the specific flow rate, and the specific slipping. These indexes are used to optimize the design of the pump and to obtain the sets of optimum design parameter Results obtained from the analysis enable the designer and manufacturer of the oil pump to be more efficient in this field.

In an oil hydraulic vane pump for an automobile, it is very important that the vane doesn't separate from the camring inner race during the operation of the vane pump. The vane generally has not only the oil hydraulic force acting on the bottom face to contact to camring inner race but there is also an inertial force and viscous force. Because the oil hydraulic force is much larger than the other forces, the contact state between the vane tip and the camring inner race is sufficient. However, the contact state between the vane tip and the camring inner race is only affected by the inertial and viscous forces during the delivery of the vane pump, because the oil hydraulic force acting on the vane is in equilibrium. If the inertial force is larger than the viscous force, which happens when the vane is separated from the camring inner race, the delivery of the vane pump can become unstable or the volume efficiency can become decrease rapidly. Therefore, in this paper, the state of the contact between the vane and the camring is considered. The results show that the rotating speed of the shaft, the operating temperature of the oil, the clearance between the vane and the rotor, and the mass of the vane exert a great influence on the state of the contact between the vane and the camring.

This article presents the reduction of vibration generated by an automobile fuel pump. In order to analysis the vibration of the fuel pump, a simplified dynamic model is established, which is composed of a rigid rotor and a equivalent springs. The equivalent stiffnesses of the upper and lower assemblies are evaluated by the comparison of modal testing results and the finite element analysis. the stiffness for the oil film of the journal bearing is extracted by using Reynold's equation. In addition, the time responses for the vibration of the fuel pump are computed by using a commercial multi-body dynamics software, RecurDyn. Based on these results, some design suggestions are proposed to reduce the vibration of an automobile fuel pump.

Gerotor-type volumetric displacement pumps are suitable for oil or water hydraulics. For this reason, many researchers have studied this topic. Gerotor pumps have been widely used in various fields. In this study, we designed a rotor profile based on an envelope of a family of curves. An analytic method for determining the volumetric displacement of the gerotor pump is verified by comparing a result obtained using CAD technology and an experimental result. Throughout the experiment, the flow rate performance was verified. In addition, we describe the design and volumetric displacement characteristics of the gerotor pump.

A geortor type pump is widely used in lubrication and actuator systems. Especially the pump is an essential machine element of an automotive engine to feed lubrication oil and power source of automatic transmission. A gerotor is a planar mechanism consist of a pair of rotor and circular tooth of stator assembly which forms a closed space. However, related industries do not have necessary technology to design and optimize the pump and paid royalties of gerotor profile on an advanced company. Also, gerotor profiles with setting design parameter have not been sufficiently analyzed from a theoretical view. Therefore, it is very difficult for designer to decide the specifications of the gerotor profiles, and calculation and fluctuation of flow rate is not yet confirmed. In this study, theoretical analyses and optimal design of the gerotor profiles have been performed numerical method by mathematical base. An automated design system of the tooth profile has been developed through MATLAB GUI Program considering various design parameters.

Modification of injector, oil ring tension reduction and oil pump rotor re-matching with optimization of relevant engine control parameters could drive fuel consumption reduction of HSDI diesel engine. A 5 holes injector was replaced with a 6 holes with smaller nozzle hole diameter and 1.5 k factor, and evaluated in a view of fuel economy and emission trade-offs. With introducing smaller nozzle hole diameter injector, PM(Particulate Matter) was drastically decreased for low engine load and low engine rpm. Modification of oil pump and oil ring was to reduce mechanical friction and be proved to better fuel economy. Optimization of engine operating conditions was a great help for the low fuel consumption. Influence of the engine operating parameters· including pilot quantity, pilot interval, air mass and main injection timing on fuel economy, smoke and NOx has been evaluated with 14 points extracted from NEDC(New European Driving Cycle) cycle. The fuel consumption was proved to $7\%$ improvement on an engine bench and $3.7\%$ with a vehicle.
