The time delay of variable valve actuators has a significant influence on engine lift tracking performance. For camless hydraulic actuators, response is affected by many factors, such as friction and control response. In this paper, investigated in depth. Experiment results show that motion can be divided into open close delay. They are different even the same cycle. Complicated characteristics...

[1] In the past, texture-based classification of soils has been used for grouping soils in variably saturated water flow and solute transport studies. Classification of soils becomes especially important for large-scale studies where the spatial and temporal variability in the hydraulic properties of soils exceeds the field sampling capabilities. Although soiltexture-based classification has be...

in this study the performance and emissions characteristics of a heavy-duty, direct injection, compression ignition (ci) engine which is specialized in agriculture, have been investigated experimentally. for this aim, the influence of injection timing, load, engine speed on power, brake specific fuel consumption (bsfc), peak pressure (pp), nitrogen oxides (nox), carbon dioxide (co2), carbon mon...

nowadays, due to the increasing power of diesel engines, especially heavy duty diesel engines, and increasing gas pressure inside the combustion chamber, the forces acting on the engine bearings have dramatically raised. on the other hand, becaus eof the competition in the market, it is necessary to increase the engine bearing life and reduce its failure as much as possible. the engine bearings...

in this study, the mf285 tractor engine vibrations resulting from the use of different combinations of biodiesel, bioethanol and diesel as fuel were studied. engine vibrations in three directions and three engine speeds: 1000, 1600 rpm 2000 and ten fuel level was measured. to investigate the influence of measured parameters on engine vibration of factorial design in a randomized complete block ...

In this paper, the hydraulic and heat-transfer properties of two sets of artificially fractured granite samples are investigated. First, the morphological information is determined using 3D modelling technology. The area ratio is used to describe the roughness of the fracture surface. Second, the hydraulic properties of fractured granite are tested by exposing samples to different confining pre...

Hydraulic cylinder actuators are used extensively in industrial, construction and agricultural works. The small sized outlet ports of the cylinders resist the flow of discharged oil; and as a result the piston motion is slowed down. This causes a lot of heat generation and energy loss within the actuators. The study investigates and analyzes the possibilities of reducing the hydraulic resistanc...

in this paper, the amount of wasted heat from different parts of a 12 liter compression ignition engine and their potential for waste heat recovery were investigated. then, two-stage configuration of organic rankine cycle was introduced for simultaneous heat recovery from exhaust gases and coolant. finally, parameters like hybrid generated power, engine thermal efficiency and brake specific fue...

The concept of a hydraulic axis plays a central role within the design and analysis of hydraulic systems. A hydraulic axis comprises working, control, and supply elements that realize a subfunction of a hydraulic system. Analyzing a system’s functional structure means to identify the hydraulic axes along with their couplings. The paper in hand addresses this problem; it presents concepts and al...
