Engineering Fundamentals of the Internal Combustion Engine , Prentice Hall Topics covered • Operating characteristics • Engine Standard and real Cycles • Thermochemistry and fuel • Intake and exhaust • Combustion • Emissions and air pollusion • Heat transfer in Engines Engine main strokes Early history • Huygens (1673) developed piston mechanism, Papin (1695) first to use steam in piston mechaanism • Lenoir Engine (1860): driving the piston by the expansion of burning products - first practical engine, 0.5 HP later 4.5 kW engines with mech efficiency up to 5%. several hundred of these engine • Otto-Langen Engine (1867), Mechanical Efficiency 11%. • Otto was given credit for the first built 4 stroke internal combustion Engine • 1880s the internal combustion engine first appeared. • Also in this decade the two-stroke cycle engine became practical and was manufactured in large numbers. • Diesel Engine 1892: noisy, large, single cylinder. • 1920s multicylinder engines where introduced • Daimler/Maybach (1882) Incorporated IC engine in automobile Single cylinder Otto Engine Engine parts Valves: Minimum Two Valves pre Cylinder • Exhaust Valve lets the exhaust gases escape the combustion Chamber. (Diameter is smaller then Intake valve) • Intake Valve lets the air or air fuel mixture to enter the combustion chamber. (Diameter is larger than the exhaust valve • Cam Shaft: The shaft that has intake and Exhaust cams for operating the valves • Cam Lobe: Changes rotary motion into reciprocating motion. • Valve Springs: Keeps the valves Closed. Different arrangements of valve and cam shaft Valve damage • The valves can be damaged in two ways: • Bent Valves • The most common failure in valves • result of contact with the piston (The valves contacting the top of a piston is due to incorrect engine synchronization caused by timing chain/belt breakage and incorrect fitting of new belts and chains.) • it is crucial not to attempt to start the engine as this may result in more costly damage being caused to the cylinder head, pistons and cylinder bores. • Burnt valve • Essentially this is caused by combustion gases escaping between the valve and valve seat when they are not sealing correctly. The hot combustion gases are forced past the valve which starts to burn away the edge of the valve • It is caused by • Excessive localized heat • Combustion gases escaping past the valve and concentrated at only one point • Irregular valve sealing with cylinder head valve seat. Carbon residues generated by irregular combustion (poor mixture) will appear at the seat region and will jeopardize the sealing between the valve and its seat Bent Valves Burnt Valves Spark plugs It provides the means of ignition when the gasoline engine’s piston is at the end of compression stroke, close to Top Dead Center(TDC) The difference between a "hot" and a "cold" spark plug is that the ceramic tip is longer on the hotter plug. Signs of faulty spark plug • Engine has a rough idle • Having trouble starting your car • Your engine misfires • High fuel consumption • Lack of acceleration Engine Block Foundation of the engine and contains pistons, crank shaft, cylinders, timing sprockets and sometimes the cam shaft. Engine crack Usually happened at area where there is thin casting It can start small then propagate as a result of thermal stress and strain cycles Cause of Engine crack 1. Engine full of water in very cold weather. The ice will crack the block. 2. Engine has inadequate oil when running. The heat can cause the block to crack. 3. Over heating, due to the lack of coolant of failure of the cooling pump. Minor causes including 1. Bad bearing in connecting rod causes it to break. This can cause the block to break as the connecting rod goes through it. 2. Broken valve springs can drop a valve into the piston, causing the piston and/or connecting rod to crack the block. 3. Broken cam drive chain can cause the valves to be open at the wrong time and cause the pistons or con rods to break the block Piston • A movable part fitted into a cylinder, which can receive and transmit power. Through connecting rod, forces the crank shaft to rotate. Causes of damages for Piston • Un complete combustion, damage From Running Unmixed Fuel • Damage From Debris Getting Through the Air Filter • Damage From Bearing Failure • Damage From Detonation, Knock Connecting (conn.) Rod • Attaches piston (wrist-pin) to the crank shaft (conn. Rod caps). Hydrolock is the main reason for the damage in the connecting rod • It happens when the volume of liquid that’s entering the combustion chamber (water or fuel) exceeds the chamber’s volume. • Can happen if coolant leaked to the cylinder either due to engine head crack or driving through a deep water • Although it’s rare, sometimes a bad ECM/PCM or fuel injector can cause too much fuel to enter a cylinder, causing hydrolocking and resulting in a bent rod. Piston rings • Four stroke: Three rings Top two are compression rings (sealing the compression pressure in the cylinder)and the third is an oil ring (scrapes excessive oil from the cylinder walls) • Two Stroke: Two Rings Both the rings are Compression rings. Common Symptoms of Damaged Piston Rings The piston rings are damaged for the same reason as piston Common symptoms are • White or gray exhaust smoke • Excessive oil consumption • Low power for acceleration • Overall loss of power or poor performance Cylinder head • Part that covers and encloses the Cylinder. • It contains cooling fins or water jackets and the valves. • Some engines contains the cam shaft in the cylinder head. Damage in the cylinder head • The following symptom's could be due to either a crack in the cylinder head or failure in the head gasket • Mix in oil and water Crank shaft • Converts up and down or reciprocating motion into circular or rotary motion. Reason for failure or misalignmentvin Crank shaft • Fatigue failure • Insufficient lubrication: • Vibration (Loose engine foundation) • Over Pressurised Cylinder (Hydrolock) • Crack in the bearing saddle or Loose main bearing bolt leading to damage of main bearing • Very high bending moment on the crankshaft due to excessive force from piston assembly Starter motor Oil pan, oil sump, oil filter and oil pump Water pump, radiator and thermostat Water circulation Engine Classification 1. Type of Ignition a) Spark Ignition Engine (SI Engines) • Mixture is uniform (conventional engines), mixture is non-uniform (stratified-charge engines) • Ignition is by the application of external energy (to spark plug) b) Compression Ignition (CI Engines). • By compression in conventional engine (Diesel engine), • Pilot injection of fuel in gas engines (eg, natural gas and diesel fuel – dual fuel engines) Engine Classification 2.

  • Small Engine Parts and Operation
    1 Small Engine Parts and Operation INTRODUCTION The small engines used in lawn mowers, garden tractors, chain saws, and other such machines are called internal combustion engines. In an internal combustion engine, fuel is burned inside the engine to produce power. The internal combustion engine produces mechanical energy directly by burning fuel. In contrast, in an external combustion engine, fuel is burned outside the engine. A steam engine and boiler is an example of an external combustion engine. The boiler burns fuel to produce steam, and the steam is used to power the engine. An external combustion engine, therefore, gets its power indirectly from a burning fuel. In this course, you’ll only be learning about small internal combustion engines. A “small engine” is generally defined as an engine that pro- duces less than 25 horsepower. In this study unit, we’ll look at the parts of a small gasoline engine and learn how these parts contribute to overall engine operation. A small engine is a lot simpler in design and function than the larger automobile engine. However, there are still a number of parts and systems that you must know about in order to understand how a small engine works. The most important things to remember are the four stages of engine operation. Memorize these four stages well, and everything else we talk about will fall right into place. Therefore, because the four stages of operation are so important, we’ll start our discussion with a quick review of them. We’ll also talk about the parts of an engine and how they fit into the four stages of operation.

  • Assessing Steam Locomotive Dynamics and Running Safety by Computer Simulation
    TRANSPORT PROBLEMS 2015 PROBLEMY TRANSPORTU Volume 10 Special Edition steam locomotive; balancing; reciprocating; hammer blow; rolling stock and track interaction Dāvis BUŠS Institute of Transportation, Riga Technical University Indriķa iela 8a, Rīga, LV-1004, Latvia Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] ASSESSING STEAM LOCOMOTIVE DYNAMICS AND RUNNING SAFETY BY COMPUTER SIMULATION Summary. Steam locomotives are preserved on heritage railways and also occasionally used on mainline heritage trips, but since they are only partially balanced reciprocating piston engines, damage is made to the railway track by dynamic impact, also known as hammer blow. While causing a faster deterioration to the track on heritage railways, the steam locomotive may also cause deterioration to busy mainline tracks or tracks used by high speed trains. This raises the question whether heritage operations on mainline can be done safely and without influencing the operation of the railways. If the details of the dynamic interaction of the steam locomotive's components are examined with computerised calculations they show differences with the previous theories as the smaller components cannot be disregarded in some vibration modes. A particular narrow gauge steam locomotive Gr-319 was analyzed and it was found, that the locomotive exhibits large dynamic forces on the track, much larger than those given by design data, and the safety of the ride is impaired. Large unbalanced vibrations were found, affecting not only the fatigue resistance of the locomotive, but also influencing the crew and passengers in the train consist. Developed model and simulations were used to check several possible parameter variations of the locomotive, but the problems were found to be in the original design such that no serious improvements can be done in the space available for the running gear and therefore the running speed of the locomotive should be limited to reduce its impact upon the track.

  • Subject: Supplement to Upper Engine and Fuel Injector Cleaner Label Models: All GM Vehicles Equipped with a Gasoline Engine
    7/11/2018 #PIP4753: Supplement To Upper Engine And Fuel Injector Cleaner Label - (Dec 11, 2009) • 2003 GMC Truck Yukon 4WD • MotoLogic 2003 Yukon 4WD Report a problem with this article Subject: Supplement to Upper Engine and Fuel Injector Cleaner Label All GM Vehicles Models: Equipped with a Gasoline Engine The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI. Condition/Concern: Some service procedures, service bulletins, or PIs may advise to decarbon the engine with GM Upper Engine and Fuel Injector Cleaner to remove valve deposits but the label that is on the back of the bottle does not include any instructions that explain how to use the cleaner. Recommendation/Instructions: If a service procedure, service bulletin, or PI does not include decarboning instructions and the GM Vehicle Care 3 Step Induction Cleaning Kit (E-957-001) is not available, the guidelines below supplement the label and explain how the cleaner can be used to clean the intake valves: Important: Extreme care must be taken not to hydrolock the engine when inducing the cleaner. If too much cleaner is induced at too low of a RPM, or if you force the engine to stall by inducing too much cleaner at once, the engine may hydrolock and bend a connecting rod(s). 1. In a well-ventillated area with the engine at operating temperature, slowly/carefully induce a bottle of GM Upper Engine and Fuel Injection Cleaner into the engine with RPM off of idle enough to prevent it from stalling (typically around 2,000 RPM or so).

  • From Crank to Click the Evolution of the Car Key in 1769, the French
    Car Key Origins: From Crank to Click The Evolution of the Car Key In 1769, the French inventor, Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot, introduced the first automobile to the world. Ever since then, cars have continued to evolve at a remarkable rate. You might think that car keys have accompanied cars all along, but that's a little inaccurate. Car keys, along with auto locksmith services, only saw the light of day in the late 1940's. So what's the story of cars and keys? Read on to find out. Early Cars Had no Keys This might come as a shock, but older cars had no keys to speak of. In the early years of the last century, many used to chain their vehicles to lampposts in order to secure them. Back in the day as well, to start your car's engine, you needed to manually crank up the engine. But this had its drawbacks. With engines getting bigger and more powerful, rotating a lever to start your car proved inconvenient, even dangerous. In turn, this made way for the electric starter, a small motor driven with a high enough voltage to start the engine. A Step closer to a Car Key In addition to the electric starter, the early decades of the twentieth century featured others types of starters, such as spring motors and air starter motors. The driver was able to operate those starters by pressing a button on the dashboard or the floor. Alternatively, a few cars had pedals to engage the starter by foot. The advent of button-operated starters meant an easier, safer way of starting your car.

De klassiska metoderna att tillverka vevaxlar har varit dominerande och inte gett någon plats för alternativa tillverkningsmetoder. Powder manufacturing är en metod som kan revolutionera produktionens effektivitet och ekonomi. För att denna tillverkningsmetod ska vara möjlig måste vevaxeln tillverkas i delar. Webs, counter-weights och journal shafts måste produceras individuellt för att sedan sammanfogas. Den största utmaningen för denna avhandling är att förstå om vevaxelns counter webs kan tillverkas med samma form eller med så få olika former som möjligt. Denna avhandling handlar främst om att fastställa dessa tekniska krav och föreslå en ny, modulär design för PM. En kinematisk-kinetisk analys utförs med hjälp av en befintlig vevaxel som skannats och omvandlats till en CAD-modell. De numeriska värdena jämförs med en MBS-modell från Adams. Vevaxeln analyseras med avseende på balansering då motvikternas placering, massa och geometriska egenskaper undersöks. Nya modeller som följer de tekniska krav som krävs skapas och utvärderas med Pugh-matris.

  • Poppet Valve
    POPPET VALVE A poppet valve is a valve consisting of a hole, usually round or oval, and a tapered plug, usually a disk shape on the end of a shaft also called a valve stem. The shaft guides the plug portion by sliding through a valve guide. In most applications a pressure differential helps to seal the valve and in some applications also open it. Other types Presta and Schrader valves used on tires are examples of poppet valves. The Presta valve has no spring and relies on a pressure differential for opening and closing while being inflated. Uses Poppet valves are used in most piston engines to open and close the intake and exhaust ports. Poppet valves are also used in many industrial process from controlling the flow of rocket fuel to controlling the flow of milk[[1]]. The poppet valve was also used in a limited fashion in steam engines, particularly steam locomotives. Most steam locomotives used slide valves or piston valves, but these designs, although mechanically simpler and very rugged, were significantly less efficient than the poppet valve. A number of designs of locomotive poppet valve system were tried, the most popular being the Italian Caprotti valve gear[[2]], the British Caprotti valve gear[[3]] (an improvement of the Italian one), the German Lentz rotary-cam valve gear, and two American versions by Franklin, their oscillating-cam valve gear and rotary-cam valve gear. They were used with some success, but they were less ruggedly reliable than traditional valve gear and did not see widespread adoption. In internal combustion engine poppet valve The valve is usually a flat disk of metal with a long rod known as the valve stem out one end.

  • Swampʼs Diesel Performance Tips to Help Remove and Install Power

La Vergne, TN 37086 Tel 615-793-5573 or (866) 595-8724/ Fax 615-793-5572 Email: [email protected] Tips to help remove and install Power Stroke injectors. Removal: After removing the valve covers and the valve cover gaskets, but before removing any injectors, drain the oil rails by removing the drain plugs inside the valve cover. On 94-97 trucks theyʼre just under where the electrical connectors are on the gasket. These plugs are very tight; give them a sharp blow with a hammer and punch to help break them loose, then use a 1/8" Allen wrench. The oil will drain out into the valve train area and from there into the crankcase. Donʼt drop the plugs down the push rod holes! Also remove one of the plugs on top of each oil rail, (beside where the lines from the High Pressure Oil Pump enter) for a vent to allow air to enter so the oil can drain. The plugs are 5/8”. Inspect the plug O-rings and replace if necessary. If the plugs under the covers leak, it will cause a substantial loss of performance. When removing the injectors, oil and fuel from the passages in the cylinder head drains down through the injector bore into the cylinders. If not removed, this can hydro-lock the engine when cranking. There is a ~40cc dish in the center of each piston. Fluid accumulates in it, as well as in the corner on the outside of the piston between the piston top and the cylinder wall, due to the 45* slope of the cylinder bank.
