Piston scuffing fault and its identification in an IC engine by vibration analysis

In this paper, the effects of piston scuffing fault on engine performance and vibrations are investigated. A procedure based on vibration analysis is also presented to identify piston scuffing fault. To this end, an internal combustion (IC) engine ran under a specific test procedure. The engine parameters and vibration signals were measured during the experiments. To produce piston scuffing fault, three-body abrasive wear mechanism was employed. The experimental results showed that piston scuffing fault caused the engine performance to reduce significantly. The vibration signals were analyzed in time-domain, frequency-domain and time–frequency domain. Continuous wavelet transform (CWT) was used to obtain time–frequency representations. “dmey” wavelet was selected as the optimum wavelet type for this research among different wavelet types using the three criteria of energy, Shannon entropy and energy to Shannon entropy ratio. The results of CWT analysis by “dmey” wavelet showed that piston scuffing fault excited the frequency band of 2.4–4.7 kHz in which the frequency of 3.7 kHz was affected more. Finally, seven different features were extracted from the engine vibration signals related to the frequency band of 2.4–4.7 kHz. The results indicated that maximum, mean, RMS, skewness, kurtosis and impulse factor of the engine vibration related to the found frequency band increased significantly due to piston scuffing fault. The obtained results showed that the proposed method identified piston scuffing fault and discovered the vibration characteristics of this fault like frequency band. The results also demonstrated the possibility of using engine vibrations in piston scuffing fault identification.     

Double-notch single-pumper fluid mounts

Passive fluid mounts are widely used in the automotive and aerospace applications to isolate the cabin from the engine noise and vibration. In the case of aerospace fixed wing applications, when fluid mounts are used, they are placed in between the engine and the fuselage, and the notch frequency of each fluid mount is tuned to either N1 frequency (engine low speed shaft imbalance excitation frequency) or to N2 frequency (engine high speed shaft imbalance excitation frequency) at the cruise condition. Since current passive fluid mount designs have only one notch, isolation is only possible at N1 or at N2, but not both. Here, in this paper, a double-notch passive fluid mount design will be presented, which has two notch frequencies, and therefore can provide vibration and noise isolation at two frequencies. In this paper, the new fluid mount design concept and its mathematical model and simulation results will be presented.

On the frequency content of the surface vibration of a diesel engine

The results of an experimental investigation into the narrow band frequency content of the surface vibration of a particular four cylinder, water-cooled, indirect injection diesel engine are described. The long term objective, of which the work reported here is a part, is the reduction of noise emission at source. Noise is radiated from the engine as a result of surface vibration. The characteristics of surface vibration are described and an explanation is given of why the discrete frequency response of the engine has hitherto appeared to be broad band nature. The relationship of the pure tone response to the combustion pressure spectrum is also described. The vibration of the engine side wall has the greatest amplitude in the frequency band 2·9-3·8 kHz, irrespective of engine speed and load, which could be a result of piston slap. The vibration of the crankcase skirt, in contrast, is more or less uniform throughout the frequency range 0–5 kHz, reflecting the great difficulty in achieving a significant reduction in the overall level at this location. The low frequency pressure spectrum is shown to have roughly a 47 dB/decade decline in amplitude with frequency below 800 Hz, in comparison with an oft-quoted figure of 30 dB/decade. Significant differences between no load and half load pressure spectra are shown to exist.

A new type of semi-active hydraulic engine mount using controllable area of inertia track

Automotive engine mounts function to constrain the engine shake motion resulting at low-frequencies, as well as to isolate noises and vibrations generated by the engine with unbalanced disturbances at the high frequencies. The property of the mount depends on vibration amplitude and excitation frequency. It means that the excitation amplitude is large in low excitation frequency range and small in high frequency range. In this paper, a new hydraulic engine mount with a controllable area of inertia track is proposed and investigated. Theoretical works with the mount model to isolate the engine-related vibrations were conducted by an optimal algorithm to control the area of the inertia track under shocks and multi-signal force excitations. This research clearly gives an analysis of the considerable changes in the mount dynamic properties according to the changes in the inertia track area. Consequently, when the inertia track area is tuned, the transmissibility of the mount is effectively reduced.     

Source identification of gasoline engine noise based on continuous wavelet transform and EEMD–RobustICA

In order to separate noise source of gasoline engine, ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), robust independent component analysis (RobustICA) and continuous wavelet transform (CWT) are applied to study the blind source separation and noise source identification of gasoline engine. After the signal is decomposed with EEMD into a set of intrinsic mode function (IMFs), RobustICA has been applied to extract independent sources. The combined technique alleviates the problem of mode mixing in EMD and overcomes the problem that the number of sensors must be larger than or equal to the number of separated components. At the same time, RobustICA’s cost efficiency and robustness are particularly remarkable for short sample length in the absence of pre-whiten. CWT using the Complex Morlet Wavelet (CMW) is used for its better time–frequency localization features to analyze time–frequency characteristics of the ICA results. Combining the time–frequency results with different noise sources frequency spectrums, the corresponding relation of the different noise sources of gasoline engine and the independent components is determined. It turns out that these independent components correspond to the exhaust, combustion and piston slap noise of the gasoline engine respectively.
