3D heat transfer,lubrication and friction coupled study for piston ring-liner on diesel engines

The piston ring and liner of internal combustion engines are generally used under increasingly harsh conditions. To investigate the mechanisms affecting the work ineffective, the coupled heat transfer, lubrication and friction model between the piston ring and liner is proposed by coupling the gas, piston set-liner, lubrication film and coolant. In this model, the temperature variation of lubricant, the gas blowby, the surface roughness, the rupture position and the non-axial symmetry of oil film are considered. The coupled heat transfer, lubrication and friction simulation is carried out for 6110 diesel engine, and the temperature fields of piston set-liner along with the corresponding lubrication and friction curves are obtained. The simulated results are verified by comparing with the temperature experiment of piston.
