  2. 1. Surfaces of Honed Cylinder Liners

    Author : Zlate Dimkovski; B.-G. Rosén; Mohamed El-Mansori; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Honing; Characterisation; Blechmantel; Groove Parameters; Quality Control; Oil Consumption; Wear; Friction; Mixed Lubrication Simulation; Surface engineering; Ytbehandlingsteknik;

    Abstract : Cylinder liner surfaces are often on the agenda of engine developers because of their large influence on the frictional losses, oil consumption and emissions of internal combustion engines. Improving the liner function involves not only manufacturing new surfaces and checking their function but also characterising them as a necessary intermediate step for better understanding of the changes made.

  4. 2. On Surface Topography of Cylinder Liners

    Author : Zlate Dimkovski; John Westberg; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cylinder liner; Surface Roughness; Characterisation; Honing; Wear; Blechmantel; Groove Parameters; Quality Control; Flow Simulation; Surface engineering; Ytbehandlingsteknik;

    Abstract : The frictional losses, oil consumption and emissions in internal combustion engines are in great extent controlled by the cylinder liner surface topography. This emphasises the importance of: investigating the liner’s topography by objectively characterising it, investigating its effects on the tribological function to gain a better understanding and improving its manufacturing.

  5. 3. Gear Surface Machining for Noise Suppression

    Author : Naser Amini; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gear grinding; gear shaving; gears; undulation; surface topography; noise; automotive gearboxes; ghost harmonics; gear honing;

    Abstract : Gear noise in modern automobiles is unacceptable. It has different sources, such as design parameters and manufacturing errors. Manufacturing errors, for example, can be reduced using advanced grinding operations. However, sometimes grinding operations can introduce micro-geometry deviations that cause severe noise problems.

  6. 4. Towards functional characterisation for cylinder liner surfaces

    Author : Cecilia Anderberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The demands on decreased environmental impact from vehicles force the automotive industry to develop engines with reduced engine oil and fuel consumption. Frictional losses in the piston ring cylinder liner system accounts for approximately 20 % of the total frictional losses within an engine. READ MORE

  7. 5. 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
