In order to conduct a comprehensive analysis and optimization improvements of the swash-plate engine, it is necessary to analyze and discuss the motion of the swash-plate completely. Based on the motion model of the piston and the connecting rod of the engine, the motion tendencies were simulated. The results suggest the circumferential distance can cause vibration, noise, and rough running of the piston and the connecting rod in the operating process. Besides, the inertia forces/moments and the unbalanced motion are considered to be the main sources of the vibration and noise. On the basis of the results, we propose a “∞” guide groove, which can reduce the vibration and noise of the swash-plate engine, to improve the kinematical parameters.

This paper presents a theoretical study of the performance of constant power operated swash plate pumps equipped with hydromechanical controllers incorporating either pivoted levers or two feedback springs. Mathematical models of these controllers are derived and used to simulate the static and dynamic characteristics of a small pump of 40 cc/rev geometric volume. Results show that the controller with the pivoted lever renders better static and dynamic characteristics compared to the controllers with feedback springs. Results also show that changing the power through varying the lever arm length is preferable than varying the valve spring initial compression, when the dynamic characteristics of the pumps with controllers of pivoted levers are considered. The effect of the valve spring initial compression on the static performance of a pump incorporating a controller with two feedback springs is also investigated.

Abstract Engine torque curves depend upon the combined effects of gas pressures, inertia forces, and weights. Tables for the harmonic coefficients of the torque due to inertia and weight effects are given for a wide range of crank-to-connecting-rod ratios. Families of indicator diagrams, representative of various types of engines, are shown and tables of the harmonic coefficients of the resulting torques are given. The types of engines considered are two-cycle gas, semi-Diesel, single-acting Diesel, double-acting Diesel, two-shaft opposed-piston Diesel, and four-cycle gasoline and Diesel engines.

Automobile piston engines with a desaxial crank mechanism are characterized by increased vibration activity associated with a cyclic change in the pressure of the working fluid in the cylinders and inertial forces associated with the reciprocating and rotational movement of the crank mechanism moving masses. Properties reflecting the consumer properties of the engine, including acoustic characteristics, are largely determined by the level of vibration of the structural elements of the desaxial crank mechanism and, first of all, by the balance of inertial forces during operation. The article discusses balancing of five-cylinder four-stroke VR type engines with a desaxial crank mechanism and uniform flash alternation. The authors introduce formulas that can be used to determine and analyze moments of the inertia forces of the reciprocating and rotating masses arising in VR5 engines at the set values of the cylinder camber angle, the ratio of the crank radius to the connecting rod length and the relative displacement of the cylinder axis. A method of balancing the moments of inertia forces of the reciprocating and rotating masses is proposed.

when Designing steadily loaded bearings the designer can usually predict the position of the journal centre quite easily with the aid of one of the many load carrying capacity/eccentricity relationships available. With dynamically loaded bearings, however, the journal path will vary in magnitude and direction throughout the loading cycle and one of the designer's interests is in the trends of maximum eccentricity ratio and the corresponding oil film thickness for various bearing and engine conditions. From experience with journal path predictions for big-end bearings it has been found that the eccentricity ratio in the bearing due to the peak firing load seldom exceeds that obtained by the inertia load loop (although this load is smaller) and therefore, as a first approximation, it is thought justifiable to neglect the gas forces. The results of this inertia study (numerical solution) applied to big-end bearings are presented in a general graphical form. Further work can be carried out on the same basis for main bearings, but this is more difficult to present in a general fashion as there are many more variables to consider, such as the phasing and magnitude of the crank out of balance and the firing order. This report therefore concentrates on the first step, i.e. that of big-end bearings.

Friction property plays an important role in the operating process of engine, the analysis and discuss about friction property can help to improve the operating performance of engine. Based on the basic structure of swash-plate engine, the sphere rolling friction model and the roller rolling friction model were established, and corresponding formulae of the rolling friction force and the rolling friction coefficient were deduced. Then as an application, we employed the exact parameters of a swash-plate engine to calculate the sphere rolling friction force, the sphere rolling friction coefficient, the roller rolling friction force and the roller rolling friction coefficient. According to comparison, we concluded that roller rolling friction force was far less than sphere rolling friction force, and roller rolling friction coefficient was far less than sphere rolling friction coefficient. Furthermore, we proposed two topics which would be our next study concerning engine friction property: friction-induced heat, and high temperature influence on friction property.
