Abstract

Piston slap phenomena in diesel engines were numerically studied by a method which can deal with pistons and cylinders with arbitrary profiles. The effects of piston skirt profile and piston clearance were discussed. The results showed that a piston with a curved profile such as a barrel type piston is more advantageous than a piston with a constant radius for the reduction of piston slap impact.
