In this paper, a simple and computationally efficient approach to non-isothermal three-dimensional analysis of hot forging processes is presented based on rigid-thermoviscoplastic finite element method. In the approach, the temperatures of dies are considered to be constant. Two hot forging processes of large crank shafts ranging from 800 to 1000 kg are simulated using the simple approach.

비조질강은 1970년대 초반 독일에서 개발된 이래 열처리(Quenching & Tempering)가 필요없는 에너지절약형 강재로서 유럽과 일본의 자동차업계를 중심으로 그 적용량이 지속적으로 증가되고 있다. 열간단조용 비조질강의 물성은 가열온도, 단조온도 및 냉각속도 등 단조공정변수의 영향을 크게 받는다. 본 고에서는 승용차엔진용 크랭크축에의 적용을 위해 SM50C에 V을 0.15% 첨가한 비조질강의 가열온도와 냉각속도에 따른 기계적 성질과 미세조직의 변화를 파악하여 최적단조공정을 정립하고, 크랭크 축시제품을 제작하여 그물성과 내구강도를 평가하고자 한다.

A torsional damper is generally used to reduce the torsional vibration which occurs at a crankshaft of a multi-cylinder high speed diesel engine. Vibration amplitude should be estimate by the appropriate simulation model to determine the optimum specifications of damper. In this paper a new method which was based on the random tabu search method(RTSM) would be introduced for the viscous damper design to optimize the damping performance. The result was ascertained by comparing with conventional rubber damper.

Ship builder's requirement for a higher power output rating has lead to the development of super large two stroke low speed diesel engines. Usually a large-sized bore ranging from 8-14 cylinders, this engine group is capable of delivering power output of more than 100,000 bhp at maximum continuous rating. Other positive aspects of this engine type include higher thermal efficiency, reliability, durability and mobility. This all playa vital role in meeting the propulsion requirement of vessels, specifically for large container ships, of which speed is a primary concern to become more competitive. Consequently, this also resulted in the modification of engine parameters and new component designs to meet the consequential higher mean effective pressure and higher maximum combustion pressure. Even though the fundamental excitation mechanism unchanged, torsional vibration stresses in the propulsion shafting are subsequently perceived to be higher. As such, one important viewpoint in the initial engine design is the resulting vibration characteristic expected to prevail on the propulsion shafting system(PSS). This paper investigated the torsional vibration characteristics of these super large engines. For the two node torsional vibration with a nodal point on the crankshaft, a tuning damper is necessary to reduce the torsional stresses on the crankshaft. Hence, the tuning torsional vibration damper design and compatibility to the shafting system was similarly reviewed and analyzed.

Improvement of the thermal efficiency in operation and maintenance of low- and medium-speed engines is a kind of never-ending requirement in the maritime power plant business. For the purpose of improving engine management efficiency, a principal factor that represents the fitness of the engine should be identified. Gas pressure, gas temperature, and vibration have all been used as this factor. However, they have limitations in terms of response speed and diagnosis accuracy. The EFR (engine fitness ratio) is suggested as a new diagnostic factor in this paper. The EFR is defined as the ratio of particular frequencies in the frequency domain and represents the fitness of an engine. It is calculated from the fluctuation pattern of the crankshaft angular speed. The EFR was verified using an experimental method for a low-speed engine and an analytic method for a medium-speed engine.

For the in-line three cylinder engine whose crankshaft has a phase of 120 degrees, the total sum of unbalanced inertia forces occurring in each cylinder will be counterbalanced among three cylinders. However, parts of inertia forces generated at the No.1 and No.3 cylinders will cause a primary moment about the No.2 cylinder. In order to eliminate this out-of-balance moment, a single balance shaft has been attached to the cylinder block so that the engine durability and riding comfort may be further improved. Accordingly, the forced vibration analysis of the in-line three cylinder engine must be implemented to meet the required targets at an early design stage. In this paper, a method to reduce noise and vibration in the 800cc, in-line three cylinder LPG engine is suggested using the multibody dynamic simulation. The static and dynamic balances of the in-line three cylinder engine are investigated analytically. The multibody dynamic model of the in-line three cylinder engine is developed where the inertia properties of connecting rod, crankshaft, and balance shaft are extracted from their FE-models. The combustion pressure within the No.1 cylinder in three significant operating conditions(1500rpm-full load, 4000rpm-full load and 7000rpm-no load)is measured from the actual tests to excite the engine. The vibration velocities at three engine mounts with and without balance shaft are evaluated through the forced vibration analysis. Obviously, it is shown that the vibration of the in-line three cylinder engine with balance shaft is reduced to the acceptable level .

The primary cause of air pollution by vehicles is imperfect combustion of fuel. One of the most usual causes of this imperfect combustion is the misfire in IC engins. The U.S. EPA(Environment Protection Agency) and the CARB(California air Resources Board) have imposed regulations for the detection of misfiring in automotive engines. The OBD-II regulations require that misfire should be monitored by the engine diagnostic system, and that the goal of OBD-II is to alert the driver to the presence of a malfunction of the emission control system. Several solutions to the misfire detection problem have been proposed for the detection of misfires. However, the performance of these methods in the presence of misfire is not altogether clear. This paper presents a precise method and system for internal combustion engine misfire. Present invention based upon measurements of engine roughness as derived from crankshaft angular velocity measurements with special signal processing method. Crankshaft angular velocity signals are processed by WDPT, so that the more reliable misfire detection than the time domain analysis. Experimental work confirms that it is possible to apply the WDFT for the detection of misfires in no-load idle and road testing.
