[ 1 ] - Numerical Computation of Rolling Resistance Based on the Result of Tire/Road Static Contact Analysis

Among various dissipating mechanisms, the viscoelastic effect of rubber material on creation of rolling resistance is responsible for 10-33% dissipation of supplied power at the tire/road interaction surface. So, evaluating this kind of loss is very essential in any analysis concerned with improving the fuel consumption of vehicles and resultantly energy savage. Hysteretic loss is a fraction of...

[ 2 ] - Numerical investigation on Effect of thermally isolated piston on improving SI engine performance during the cold start conditions

In low ambient temperatures the engine will have poor output torque and power generation at the first cycles of its performance, long start time and huge noxious emissions because of insufficient temperature and quality of air-fuel mixture and failure of flame to burn the charge. It is noted that any attempt to increase the charge temperature leads to better combustion conditions. By applying t...

[ 3 ] - Evaluating the coupled thermo-mechanical stresses for an aluminum alloy piston used in a gasoline engine XU7

In modern engines with higher compression ratios, severe pressures and non-uniform heating up is occurred for the engine parts. The piston as the most critical part among all automotive components has been the subject of numerous studies on calculation of temperature distribution, but thermal stress analyses are limited. In this study, the piston of gasoline engine XU7 which is widespread in Ir...

[ 4 ] - Finite Element Analysis for Estimating the Effect of Various Working Conditions on the Temperature Gradients Created Inside a Rolling Tire

Periodic deformation of a tire during its rolling motion causes energy dissipating and heat generation due to hysteretic nature of the rubber. The increase in tire temperature may have disastrous effects on safe service life and safety of vehicles. In this study a numerical simulation based on finite element method is used for evaluating the effect of various working conditions on temperature f...
