Studies on Wear of Inlet Valve and Cylinder Bore in Diesel Engines

Abstract

Wear is a characteristic of the engine system and a wide variety of conditions causes wear and damage of engine parts. In the current work, wear of the engine components are classified on the basis of fretting and adhesive phenomenon. In this regard, we formalized the knowledge of wear of inlet valve and liner quantitatively on the basis of operational and design aspects. Since there are many design and operational variables, the most important variables are selected and tuned by adding new features to the empirical models. Therefore, in the present work case studies on critical engine parts like inlet valve and liner are made to improve the wear behavior of the special components.
