Abstract
Electromagnetic Mechanical Variable Valve Actuation (EMVVA) technology has the capability to improve engine performance and decrease pollutant emissions. A new type of EMVVA composed of electromagnetic driver and mechanical transmission is proposed to realize the flexible adjustment of valve parameters whether the valve is open or closed process. The geometric mathematical model of the mechanical transmission is developed based on the motion laws of the valve and the geometrical construction of the mechanical transmission, and the conjugate cam curve is solved. A multi-body dynamic model is constructed to calculate the driving torque and energy consumption needed by the mechanical transmission based on the mass, rotational inertia, centroid position of the parts, combining the normal contact force model and the friction model of the clearance contact pair at the same time. Based on the geometric model and multi-body dynamics model, the test platform is established. The test results demonstrated that within the specified valve lift, EMVVA system could accomplish variable valve lift, variable valve timing, and variable valve duration at maximum lift. The maximum timing error does not exceed 1° crank angle, and the maximum valve lift error does not exceed 0.25 mm at 11 mm valve lift. In addition, the error of driving torque between the multi-body dynamics model and the test is less than 0.3 [Formula: see text].Low energy optimization of mechanical transmission was completed using the NSGA-II method and multi-body model. According to the results of the optimization, energy consumption was reduced by 14%, and the peak driving torque was decreased by 54.3%.
