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. -

1 Fuels and Combustion Bengt Johansson
1 1 Fuels and Combustion Bengt Johansson 1.1 Introduction All internal combustion engines use fuel as the source for heat driving the thermo- dynamic process that will eventually yield mechanical power. The fuel properties are crucial for the combustion process. Some combustion processes require a fuel that is very prone to ignition, and some have just the opposite requirement. Often, there is a discussion on what is the optimum. This optimum can be based on the fuel or the combustion process. We can formulate two questions: • What is the best possible fuel for combustion process x? • What is the best possible combustion process for fuel y? Both questions are relevant and deserve some discussion, but it is very seldom that the fuel can be selected without any considerations, and similarly, there is only a limited selection of combustion processes to choose from. This brief intro- duction discusses the combustion processes and the link to the fuel properties that are suitable for them. Thus, it is more in the line of the first question ofthe aforementioned two. 1.2 The Options For internal combustion engines, there are three major combustion processes: • Spark ignition (SI) with premixed flame propagation • Compression ignition (CI) with nonpremixed (diffusion) flame • Homogeneous charge compression ignition, HCCI with bulk autoignition of a premixed charge. These three processes can be expressed as the corner points in a triangle accord- ing to Figure 1.1. Within this triangle, all practical concepts reside. Some are a combination of SI and HCCI, some a combination of SI and CI, and others a Biofuels from Lignocellulosic Biomass: Innovations beyond Bioethanol, First Edition. -

The Influence of Lubricant Degradation on Measured Piston Ring Film Thickness in a Fired Gasoline Reciprocating Engine
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Bradford Scholars The Influence of Lubricant Degradation on Measured Piston Ring Film Thickness in a Fired Gasoline Reciprocating Engine Rai Singh Notay1), Martin Priest2) and Malcolm F Fox2) 1) [email protected] 2) Faculty of Engineering and Informatics, University of Bradford, Bradford, BD7 1DP, UK Abstract A laser induced fluorescence system has been developed to visualise the oil film thickness between the piston ring and cylinder wall of a fired gasoline engine via a small optical window mounted in the cylinder wall. A fluorescent dye was added to the lubricant in the sump to allow the lubricant to fluoresce when absorbing laser radiation. The concentration of the dye did not disturb the lubricant chemistry or its performance. Degraded engine oil samples were used to investigate the influence of lubricant quality on ring pack lubricant film thickness measurements. The results show significant differences in the lubricant film thickness profiles for the ring pack when the lubricant degrades which will affect ring pack friction and ultimately fuel economy. 1. Introduction With the drive towards better energy resource utilisation and an improved environment, current automotive engine tribology research is geared towards reduced pollutant emissions and improved efficiency. A large proportion of the internal friction of an engine is due to the piston assembly, comprising the piston ring pack and the piston skirt, and the lubricant in the ring pack also plays a vital role in exhaust emissions control [1, 2]. Demands on the engine lubricant to help improve engine efficiency are becoming more intense and recent engine technology, such as engine downsizing and stop start functions, are increasing the stress on modern engine lubricants. -

Rebuilding Your First Engine by Joe Mondello
REBUILDING YOUR FIRST ENGINE BY JOE MONDELLO Rebuilding an engine is involved, particular steps must be taken and confidence in the professionalism of your machinist is most important. The first thing is to research the exact cubic inch displacement, year, and type of engine that is in your car. Our technical reference manual will be a great help to you when rebuilding your engine. Always take photos of the engine and engine compartment. Pay special attention to brackets, accessory head bolts, wire looms, AC hoses, belts and special headed or stud type-mounting bolts. Before starting to remove your engine, cover the fenders, front grill and sheet metal with good fender covers or heavy blankets. Then disconnect the battery, fuel lines and drain all the fluids. You should remove the radiator first remembering to disconnect radiator hoses and transmission oil cooler lines to eliminate a big mess of dripping transmission fluid. The carburetor and distributor should then be removed. Connect a chain, engine cradle stop or carburetor plate adapter to engine and prepare to remove the engine. Disconnect engine and transmission mounts and remove the hood. Scribe or use a marking pen around the mounting brackets so hood replacement will be easier. Sometimes the removal of the rear transmission crossover-mounting bar will allow more of a tilt for easier engine and transmission removal. Always block the rear wheels so the car cannot move fore and aft. Always make sure your engine hoist and removing device is securely bolted down and is tight. If you have a 4-speed car, disconnect the clutch cross shaft and all the linkage. -
Crosshead Monitoring Users’ Group Conference 2018 Crosshead Monitoring Glyn Learmonth Equipment Analyst, Windrock
Crosshead Monitoring Users’ Group Conference 2018 Crosshead Monitoring Glyn Learmonth Equipment Analyst, Windrock 1 2018 Users’ Group Conference Summary This is a discussion on using both crank angle data, spectral data and time waveform review to monitor reciprocating machinery crossheads. It is an expansion of the previously discussed monitoring techniques from Warren Liable. The techniques were applied to main bearings to evaluate their health. The techniques when applied over time can help to increase an analysts understanding on the crosshead condition, and with careful review make better more informed calls on machinery health. 2 2018 Users’ Group Conference Brief timeline of reciprocating impact analysis • Previous paper written by Warren Laible “Early Detection of Connecting Rod Bearing Impact Vibrations in High Speed Industrial Gas Engines” – 2011 GMRC & WRI Users group • When the bearing material and the crankshaft crankpin journal come in contact with each other in the absence of an effective oil cushion, an impact occurs which generates a resonant ringing of the impacted parts. • When rod bearings knock, the impact event frequency is 2 times RPM (CPM). • The “ringing” frequency is usually in the 2.5 KHz to 5 KHz range (150,000 to 300,000 RPM (CPM). • Use acceleration measurements for early detection and trending of the impacts. • When velocity amplitudes increase because of a rod bearing knock, severe damage is occurring. • Oil analysis may help determine the extent of damage and the components that are affected (bearing or bushing). 3 2018 Users’ Group Conference Vibration vs. Crank-angle Display Overview 4 2018 Users’ Group Conference Crank Phased Data With Cylinder Mechanical Events BDC and TDC Main bearing impacting 5L TDC C Y L E V E N T S 5 2018 Users’ Group Conference FFT – Acceleration data Identification of impacting in FFT spectrum Wide bottomed, bell shaped curve 3.198 KHz 191,880 CPM 6 2018 Users’ Group Conference The long and short of it Why do I need 4 points at the same location.
