چکیده

the premature breakage in some four cylinder diesel engine crankshafts was reported. all crankshafts were failed from the same region. failures had occurred in the first crankpin, the nearest crankpin to the flywheel. dynamic analysis and finite element modelling were carried out to determine the state of stress in the crankshaft. fem results revealed that the first crankpin fillet is the most vulnerable point to fracture. soderburg diagram of the studied crankshaft showed that the service operation point, which stands for mean and alternating stresses of the critical region (first crankpin fillet) was located in the safe region. therefore, it can be concluded that fatigue fracture has not occurred in the crankshaft. sem images of the fractured surface also showed cleavage fracture and put in evidence that the failure was brittle fracture. no sign of fatigue failure was observed. the fracture may have been caused by an overload. however, the results suggest re-evaluation of the design and manufacturing. the fillet rolling may play an important role in this matter. optimization of the fillet rolling process by changing process parameters has been recommended to the manufacturer. this recommendation has been adopted by the manufacturer and no further fracture has been reported since.

The Analysis of Wheel Loader Diesel Engine Crankshaft Failure

The main purpose of this study is to review the cause for the crankshaft failure of six-cylinder diesel engine of a wheel loader after passing a short period of time. The failure had occurred after 4800 hours of in-service in the fifth crankpin of the crankshaft. Hardness and tensile tests were carried out to study their mechanical properties. Spectrophotometer machine was used to examine the c...

Fatigue Analysis and Optimization of Crankshaft of V8 Diesel Engine

The crankshaft is one of the most critically loaded components as it experiences cyclic loads in the form of bending and torsion during its service life. Its failure will cause serious damage to the engine so it’s important at the time of design to verify fatigue strength. More challenges in crankshaft design due to increasing vehicle payloads, lower weight requirement, higher efficiency and lo...

1.6L OHV “KENT” ENGINE Open-wheel racing enthusiasts associate this overhead valve design with the long-lived international Formula Ford series, the starting point for many professional drivers. Most of the combustion chamber is in a dished piston, where the mating cylinder head face is nearly flat. Production for European models (Cortina, Capri and Fiesta) is now phased out. Ford Racing sold n...
