To accurately determine the load boundary conditions required for the finite element calculation of crankshaft fatigue strength, a dynamic-based fatigue strength detection method for the crankshaft of the automotive internal combustion engine is proposed. Taking a certain type of automotive internal combustion engine as the research object, the multi-body system dynamics model of crank-connecting rod mechanism is established and the dynamic load spectrum of a crankshaft in a working cycle of the internal combustion engine is obtained through dynamic simulation analysis. The load boundary conditions of crankshaft finite element analysis are obtained and the finite element model which can simulate the contact state between crankshaft and bearing is established. The crankshaft fatigue strength is based on the dynamic load spectrum. Degree detection provides load boundary, the fillet sub-model is constructed and the stress distribution of the fillet sub-model under 12-unit displacement loads is obtained by calculating the stress field. The working fatigue safety factor of the crankshaft under dynamic stress is calculated. The analysis results show that the detection error of the proposed method is less than 5% under different noise intensities and the average energy consumption is lower than that of the comparative detection methods, which are 251.37 J and 617.37 J respectively and shows that the proposed method has strong anti-interference and low energy consumption.

The market demand for vehicles with reduced energy consumption, as well as increasingly stringent standards limiting CO2 emissions, are the focus of a large number of research works undertaken in the analysis of the energy consumption of cars in real operating conditions. Taking into account the growing share of hybrid drive units on the automotive market, the aim of the article is to analyse the total unit energy consumption of a car operating in real road conditions, equipped with an advanced hybrid drive system of the PHEV (plug-in hybrid electric vehicles) type. In this paper, special attention has been paid to the total unit energy consumption of a car resulting from the cooperation of the two independent power units, internal combustion and electric. The results obtained for the individual drive units were presented in the form of a new unit index of the car, which allows us to compare the consumption of energy obtained from fuel with the use of electricity supported from the car’s batteries, during journeys in real road conditions. The presented research results indicate a several-fold increase in the total unit energy consumption of a car powered by an internal combustion engine compared to an electric car. The values of the total unit energy consumption of the car in real road conditions for the internal combustion drive are within the range 1.25–2.95 (J/(kg · m)) in relation to the electric drive 0.27–1.1 (J/(kg · m)) in terms of instantaneous values. In terms of average values, the appropriate values for only the combustion engine are 1.54 (J/(kg · m)) and for the electric drive only are 0.45 (J/(kg · m)) which results in the internal combustion engine values being 3.4 times higher than the electric values. It is the combustion of fuel that causes the greatest increase in energy supplied from the drive unit to the car’s propulsion system in the TTW (tank to wheels) system. At the same time this component is responsible for energy losses and CO2 emissions to the environment. The results were analysed to identify the differences between the actual life cycle energy consumption of the hybrid powertrain and the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light-Duty Test Procedure) homologation cycle.

MFPSE, Micro Free Piston Swing Engine, is a new type of miniature internal combustion engine based on the working principle of two-stroke swing engine. The successful development and operation of this type of miniature internal combustion engine provide important significance for the miniaturization of the internal combustion engine, and provide a number of important research theory, computation method and experimental data. In this article, according to the work characteristics and co-ordination requirements of MFPSE (Micro Free Piston Swing Engine), whose strain interference is analyzed using finite element analysis software, the problems and interference of the center pendulum and cylinder is found evidently. The data of analysis provides theory basis for the MFPSE’s structural optimization, and is critical to improve the performance of MFPSE.
