Abstract

With consideration of asperity contact, the minimum oil film thickness and friction power loss are calculated by simultaneous solution of the dynamics, blow-by and lubrication of piston ring pack. Take the piston ring pack in the first cylinder from the free end of a six-cylinder diesel engine for example, results show that the asperity contact takes place at all of the compression rings and oil ring; the minimum oil film thickness is 1.04μm at the top ring; the total friction loss power is 0.94kW, the top ring accounts for 37.2%, the second ring accounts for 33.0%, the oil ring accounts for 29.8%.
