Abstract

Recently, V-engines with a small angle of camber are more widely used as power units for passenger cars, especially because of the reduced engine length, and the transverse dimensions are almost the same as in-line ones. All this leads to an increase in overall engine power. However, due to the small camber angle between the parallel rows of cylinders, the intersection of the cylinders in their lower part may occur. To prevent the latter, significant multidirectional desaxial is used. Moreover, the calculation of the dynamics of similar engines introduces a number of features, including balancing the inertia forces and their moments from the reciprocating moving and rotating masses. The article discusses the balancing of 5-cylinder four-stroke VR type engines with desaxial crank mechanism and uniform flash alternation. The formulas allowing to find and analyze moments of the inertia forces of the reciprocating and rotating masses arising in VR-5 engines are given by the given value of the cylinder camber angle, the ratio of the crank radius to the connecting rod length and the relative displacement of the cylinder axis. A method of balancing the moments of inertia forces of the reciprocating and rotating masses is proposed and the results of the presented dynamic study of a VR-5 engine using analytical, software and graph-analytical methods.
