The experimental results show that the mechanical efficiency and power output are enhanced by 4% and 2.6%, respectively, with fuel consumption reduced by (2.9%.) Further studies on coating processing and coating materials as well as the reliability and durability will be of great significance in the application and popularization of the new technology.展开更多

In this research, a numerical model considering the cylinder liner deformation and the piston ring conformability is developed to predict the blow-by, lubrication, friction and wear of the piston ring pack under different operating conditions. The gas flow rate, inter-ring gas pressures, minimum oil film thickness, frictional force and wear load during cold start are calculated and compared with those during warm idle operating conditions. The results show that cylinder liner deformation and piston ring conformability together obviously affect blow-by and other tribological performance. Meanwhile, it is found that friction loss is larger during cold start than during warm idle operating conditions. However, the wear process is more severe during warm idle operation than during cold start. From this research, the blow-by and tribological performance of the piston ring pack during cold start and warm idle operations are understood more deeply.展开更多
