  1. 1. Wear of piston rings in hydrostatic transmissions

    Author : Ulf Skytte af Sätra; Sören Andersson; Kenneth Holmberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; piston ring; surface roughness; texture; coating; wear; hydraulic motor; Construction engineering; Konstruktionsteknik; Mechanical engineering; Maskinteknik;

    Abstract : This study focuses on the wear of piston rings in a hydraulic radial piston motor. The piston ring has to satisfy increasing demands for reliability and longer service life. It has two contacting surfaces, the face and the flank, and operates under a boundary lubrication state. READ MORE

  2. 2. Friction in Piston Ring - Cylinder Liner Contacts

    Author : Markus Söderfjäll; Peder Klit; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Abstract : With today’s striving towards reduction of fuel consumption it is moreimportant than ever to understand the function of different componentsin the internal combustion engine. There is a need to develop and usetools to investigate and predict the result of specific design changesmade on the components. READ MORE

  3. 3. Surface Engineering Approach to Frictional Optimization

    Author : Staffan Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Piston Ring; Lubrication; Rig testing; Tribometer; Design of Experiments; Cylinder Liner; Friction; Oil consumption; Diesel Engine; Wear;

    Abstract : Reducing emissions is a top priority within heavy duty diesel engine development and research. The power cylinder system is a main contributor to emissions and accounts for about 50% of the total frictional losses found in the engine, so is important to optimize. READ MORE

  4. 4. A Surface Engineering Approach to Reduction of Frictional Losses of Heavy Duty Diesel Engines

    Author : Staffan Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cylinder Liner; Tribometer; Wear; Diesel Engine; Lubrication; Design of Experiments; Rig testing; Friction; Piston Ring; Oil consumption;

    Abstract : Reducing emissions is a top priority within heavy duty diesel engine development and research. The aim of the work is to decrease the fuel consumption by decreasing frictional losses of the Power Cylinder Unit.Full scale testing of engine components improvements is time-consuming and costly.

  5. 5. Oil consumption and Friction in a Piston Ring-Cylinder Liner assembly.-A multifunctional Surface Approach

    Author : Cecilia Anderberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cylinder liner surface; surface characterization; oil consumption; surface texture parameters;

    Abstract : About a half of the frictional losses in an internal combustion engine come from the interactions between the piston assembly and cylinder liner surface. The tribological considerations in the contact between the piston ring and cylinder liner have attracted much attention over the past few decades. READ MORE
