Определение диссипативных потерь в гидравлическом приводе газораспределительного механизма двигателя внутреннего сгорания

Abstract

Controlling the opening and closing times of intake and exhaust valves can improve the efficient parameters of an internal combustion engine and reduce the toxicity of combustion products. The valves are moved by an electronically controlled hydraulic drive. The energy consumption for the operation of a hydraulic valve drive is greater than when using a traditional mechanical drive. The dissipative energy losses in the accumulator one-way hydraulic valve drive are investigated. The working fluid of the hydraulic drive is SAE 5W-30 motor oil. The oil pressure behind the pump is 8 MPa, the diameter of the hydraulic cylinder is 16 mm. The main items of energy consumption are identified, and a methodology for their determination is proposed. The assessment of the efficiency of the hydraulic drive was based on the law of conservation of energy. To determine energy costs, a hydraulic drive model was compiled in the Simulink environment. A law of valve movement similar in shape to trapezoidal was obtained. The maximum speed of valve movement during the opening process is 4 m/s, during the closing process 3.8 m/s. During the period when the valve is held near the maximum lift of 14 mm, free oscillations with an amplitude of about 1 mm are observed. The energy consumption for a single actuation of the valve, which has a progressively moving mass of 0.5 kg, amounted to 25.9 J. Of this, a little more than 70% is spent on filling the hydraulic cylinder with liquid, the rest is spent when emptying it. As a result of throttling the fluid flow in the hydraulic cylinder rod stroke limiter and hydraulic brake, 56% of the energy is lost. Large energy losses are observed between the hydraulic accumulators and the hydraulic cylinder. When the cylinder is filled, 21.1% is lost here, and when it is emptied, 10.4%. Increasing the capacity of the supply and drain lines between hydraulic accumulators and hydraulic cylinders allows you to increase the speed of opening and closing valves. The main ways to increase the energy efficiency of the drive are to shift the hydraulic accumulators to the hydraulic cylinder, increase the diameter of the connecting lines, and increase the throughput of the solenoid valves.
