RESEARCH ON THE ON-LINE MEASURING SYSTEM FOR THE MIDDLE-CONVEX AND VARYING ELLIPSE PISTON SKIRT
2001, 15(4).
[Abstract](2309) [PDF 241KB](106)
Abstract:
The middle-convex and varying ellipse piston is the key component of an internal-combustion engine. In general, the piston is machined by non-circular section CNC lathe, but the measuring of piston profile is manipulated by off-line. Because the off-line measuring rederence is different from the machining reference, the measurement result is diverse from the actual. Measurement result is diverse from the actual dimension. A new mehtod to measure the middle-convex and varying ellipse piston profile, which is known as on-line measuring, is presented. By using this kind of method, the high measurement accuracy can be gained, as well as meeting the production requirement.
INFILTRATION KINETICS MODEL OF LIQUID METAL INTO A FIBROUS PREFORM IN CENTRIFUGAL ACCELERATING FIELD
2001, 15(4).
[Abstract](2262) [PDF 176KB](100)
Abstract:
The infiltration kinetics of the metal melt into a fibrous preform in centrifugal accelerating field is analyzed on the basis of Darcy's law and the assumption that the fibrous preform is treated as "bundle of capillaries".The critical rotating speed is analyzed with the established model. The influences of the metal mass,the rotating speed of the equipment, the casting height, the original outer radius of the metal melt and the fibrous volume fraction in fibrous preform on infilatration are studied. The result show that the critical rotating speed is dependent on critical pressure,casting height,metal melt mass and the character of fibrous preform. With the increase in the metal melt mass,rotating speed of the equipment and original outer radius of the metal melt,or the decrease in casting height and fibrous volume fraction in fibrous of the metal melt, or the decrease in casting height and fibrous volume fraction in fibrous preform,infiltration of metal melt for fibrous preform becomes easier.
STUDY ON IMAGE EDGE PROPERTY LOCATION BASED ON FRACTAL THEORY
2001, 15(4).
[Abstract](2266) [PDF 238KB](98)
Abstract:
A novel approach of printed circuit board (PCB)image locating is presented. Based on the rectangle mark image edge of PCB, the features is used to describe the image edge and the fractal properby of image edage edge is analyzed. It is proved that the rectangle mark image dege of PCB has some fractal features. A method of deleting unordinary curve noise and compensating the length of the fractal curve is put forward, which can get the fractal dimension value from one complex edge fractal property curve. The relation between the dimension of the fractal curve and the turning angle of imagre can be acquired from an equation, as a result, the angle value of the PCB image is got exactly. A real image edge analysis result confirms that the method based on the fractal theory is a new powerful tool for angle locating on PCB and related image area.
RESEARCH ON A SCANNING NEAR-FIELD MICROSCOPY BASED ON A QUARTZ RESONATOR
2001, 15(4).
[Abstract](2069) [PDF 173KB](94)
Abstract:
A scanning mear-field acoustic microscopy(SNAM)used in imaging the topography of precise surfaces is presented. As a micro-force sensor, a non-encapsulated 1 MHz quartz resonator is damped by hydrodynamic forces when approaching an object. Thus the oscillating characteristics of the leg of the quartz resonator change. While measuring the decrease of the amplitude of vibrating ,the shape of the object can be obtained. Based on the analyses of the principle and key parameters of SNAM, a SNAM is exploited. A lateral resolution of 0.5m and vertical resolutionm of 2 nm has been achieved in the experiments.
ELASTOHYDRODYNAMIC LUBRICATION OF LOGARITHMIC PROFILE ROLLER CONTACTS
2001, 15(4).
[Abstract](2113) [PDF 326KB](253)
Abstract:
An account of numerical solutions to the isothermal and flooded elastohydrodynamic lubrication(Fhl)of a logarithmic profile roller, which is rolling over a flat plane, is given. The analysis takes account of sideways flow of lubricant in the inlet region of the contact. When the results are presented in suitable non-dimensional groups, it is shown that more uniformly pressure and shape of the film distribution in axial direction is taken place under light loading. As the increase of the load, the end closure is displayed and the oil pressure rises sharply at the ends. The seal action formed by the end closure makes the film thickness a little. And the minimum film thickness is transferred from the central to the ends and the value is reduced rapidly. As the increase of the speed, the end closure becomes much serious. The optimum crowing value obtained in EHL state is sarger than the design value obtained in elastostatic contact state for the same working cinditions. In order to verify the correctmess of theory, optical interferometry is applied to measure the oil film thickness between a logarithmic profiled roller and a glass plate under pure rolling conditions.It is found the agreement between numerical solutions and experiments is very good.
STUDY ON THE CHARACTERISTICS OF AGGLOMERATION AND CYCLONE SEPARATION OF DIESEL PARTICULATE
2001, 15(4).
[Abstract](2093) [PDF 286KB](122)
Abstract:
A particulate separation system that can be used to study the characteristics of the diesel particulate agglomeration and cyclone separation is developed. It includes a diesel particulate agglomerator and a cyclone separator mainly. A preliminary investigation on the cyclone separation technology for controlling the exhaust particulate from a diesel engine is conducted. The experimental results show that the diameter distribution of the diesel particulate is changed after they pass through the agglomerator, almost 30%-40% of the particulate agglomerated from less than 1.0 m to larger than 1.0 ,this change contributes to trap diesel particulate. With this system installed on the exhaust pipe of a single-cylinder engine, the particulate separation efficiency is around 40%-60% under typical engine running condition. The back-pressure of this system is less than 5 kPa on full load condition, much less than that of other methods of particulate filtration. This technology has the possibility to open a new prospect for particulate reduction because of its simplicity, reliability and low resistance.

INVESTIGATION OF VORTEX SHEDDING INDUCED HYDRODYNAMIC VIBRATION IN VORTEX STREET FLOWMETER
2001, 15(4).
[Abstract](2146) [PDF 231KB](73)
Abstract:
Vortex street flowmeter has been used in steady flow measurement for about three decades. The benefits of this type of flowmeter include high accuracy, good linearty, wide measuring range, and excellent reliability. However ,in unsteady flow measurement,the pressure disturbance as well as the noise from the system or surrounding can reduce the signal-to-noise ratio of the flowmeter seriously. Aimed to use vortex street flowmeters in unsteady flow measurment, the characteristics of the vortex shedding induced hydrodynamic vibration around the prism bluff body in a vortex street flowmeter are investigated numerically and by expriments. The results show that the hydrodynamic vibrations with 180 phase shift occur at the axisymmetric points of the channel around the bluff body. The most intense vibration occurs at the points on the lateral faces close to the base of the prism. The results provide therefore a useful reference for developing an anti-interference vortex flowmeter using the differential sensing technique.

Through datailed experimental research it is found that the bubbly oil decreases the cavitation erosion in journal bearings of engines. This result is analyzed reasonably from mechanism of cavitation erosion.

Abstract:
The rotating disk is a basic machine part that is used widely in industry. The motion equation is transformed into the dynamic equation in real modal space.
