  2. 6. Acoustic Characterization of Turbochargers and Pipe Terminations

    Author : Heiki Tiikoja; Mats Åbom; Francisco Denia; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; acoustical two-port; turbocharger; transmission loss; sound generation; compressor; turbine; IC-engine; inlet system; exhaust system; flow duct; duct termination; reflection coefficient;

    Abstract : In search for quieter engines there is a need for a better understanding of the acoustic properties of engine intake and exhaust system components. Besides mufflers which have the purpose of reducing pressure pulses originating from the internal combustion (IC) engine, there are many components in a modern car exhaust and intake system, e.g. READ MORE

  4. 7. Laser Spectroscopic Techniques for Combustion Diagnostics Directed Towards Industrial Applications

    Author : Hans Seyfried; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Teknik; Technological sciences; Fysik; Physics; Combustion; Gas turbine; HCCI; Engine; High-Speed; Thermographic phosphors; PLIF; LIF; Laser Diagnostics; Laser-Induced Fluorescence; Laser technology; Laserteknik; Motors and propulsion systems; Motorer; framdrivningssystem;

    Abstract : In the work presented in the thesis, different laser spectroscopic techniques were utilized for measurement of species concentrations, as well as for surface thermometry. Experiments were conducted in various combustion environments, ranging from laboratory burners to truck-sized internal combustion (IC) engines, gas turbine combustors and a full-size aircraft turbofan engine.

  5. 8. Acoustic source characterisation for non-linear in-duct sources

    Author : Fredrik Albertson; KTH; []
    Keywords : in-duct source; source characterisation; non-linear source; linearity test; hybrid method; IC-engine; muffler; coupling method;

    Abstract : Different ways to model acoustic in-duct sources have beenanalysed. Measurements were conducted on two diesel truckengines. It was found that for steady state oscillations, onecould linearise in the neighbourhood of a given linearisationpoint, i.e. READ MORE

  6. 9. Studies of flow duct acoustics with applications to turbocharged engines

    Author : Hans Rämmal; Hans Boden; Mats Åbom; Antonio Torregrosa; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; IC-engine; turbocharger; duct termination; flow duct; exhaust system; inlet system; acoustic source; one-port; two-port; source model; transmission loss; two-port matrix; reflection coefficient; source strength; multi-load method; Acoustics; Akustik;

    Abstract : A number of experimental and theoretical studies, performed in the field of technical flow duct acoustics are presented in this thesis. The acoustical methods treated are implemented on turbocharged IC-engines and engine gas exchange system components. A new method based on the well-known two-load technique has been developed.

  7. 10. Optimizing surface texture for combustion engine cylinder liners

    Author : Andrew Spencer; Michel Cervantes; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : The Piston Ring - Cylinder Liner (PRCL) contact is the single largest contributor to frictional losses in an internal combustion (IC) engine, causing 20-40% of all mechanical losses. If these mechanical losses can be reduced by 10% then vehicle fuel efficiency could be increased by approximately 1.5-2.5%. READ MORE
