Analysis and Experimental Study on Vibration Isolation Performance of Full-scale Turbofan Engine Mounting

At present, most of the turbofan engine use the articulated link mount to connect the engine to the wing, and the analysis and experimental research of articulated link mount are important means in the development of engine mount. In this paper, the vibration isolation performance analysis of a certain turbofan engine mounting was carried out, and a full-scale turbofan engine mounting vibration isolation test platform was established based on the four-terminal parameter method, and the engine simulation device - eccentric rotation excitation tester was developed, which simulates the real engine vibration through rotor imbalance, and the vibration isolation efficiency of a certain type of engine mount at the high and low pressure rotor frequency was obtained. The results show that the simulation and test results are very close, the error is within 15% at the low-frequency, and the error is within 5% at the high-frequency. The research of this paper can provide test evaluation means for my country to independently carry out the design and improvement for large passenger aircraft engine installation devices, and provide test basis for its design and finalization.

Analysis and verification of vibration isolation performance of engine mount based on low-frequency approximation method

At present, most of the turbofan engine use the articulated link mount to connect the engine to the wing. The mechanical modeling, analysis and experimental research of articulated link mount are important means in the development of engine mount. In this paper, multibody dynamics method is used to establish the dynamic theory equation for a certain type of turbofan engine mount, and the low-frequency approximation method of the MNF file is proposed, which greatly improves the calculation speed on the basis of ensuring the calculation accuracy. In addition, a full-scale engine mounting system vibration isolation performance test platform was developed, and the vibration isolation efficiency of a certain type of engine mount at the high and low pressure rotor frequency was obtained. The results show that the simulation and test results agree well, the error is within 15% at the low-frequency, and 5% at the high-frequency.

Neural Network Modeling and Dynamic Analysis of Different Types of Engine Mounts for Internal Combustion Engines.

This paper presents the results of studies on reducing the amount of vibrations in different frequency ranges generated by a combustion engine through the use of different types of engine mounts. Three different types of engine supports are experimentally and numerically analyzed, namely an elastomeric engine mount, an elastomeric engine mount with a hydraulic component and standard decoupling, and an elastomeric engine mount with a hydraulic component and a modified decoupler—with this engineering design being a novelty in the literature. Experimental tests that considered different excitation frequencies were performed for the three types of engine mounts. Experimental data for stiffness and damping were used to obtain nonlinear mathematical models of the two systems with hydraulic components through the use of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN). For the results, all of the mathematical models presented coefficients of determination, R2, greater than 0.985 for both stiffness and damping, showing an excellent fit for the nonlinear experimental data. Numerical results using a quarter-car suspension model showed a large reduction in vibration amplitudes for the first vibration model when using the hydraulic systems, with values ranging between 48.58% and 66.47%, depending on the tests. The modified system presented smaller amplitudes and smoother behavior when compared to the standard hydraulic model.

MR 유체와 압전스택을 특징으로 하는 새로운 형태의 능동 엔진마운트 시스템

An engine is one of the most dominant noise and vibration sources in vehicle systems. Therefore, in order to resolve noise and vibration problems due to engine, various types of engine mounts have been proposed. This work presents a new type of active engine mount system featuring a magneto-rheological (MR) fluid and a piezostack actuator. As a first step, six degrees-of freedom dynamic model of an in-line four-cylinder engine which has three points mounting system is derived by considering the dynamic behaviors of MR mount and piezostack mount. In the configuration of engine mount system, two MR mounts are installed for vibration control of roll mode motion whose energy is very high in low frequency range, while one piezostack mount is installed for vibration control of bounce and pitch mode motion whose energy is relatively high in high frequency range. As a second step, linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller is synthesized to actively control the imposed vibration. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed active engine mount, vibration control performances are evaluated under various engine operating speeds(wide frequency range) and presented in time domain.

A36 MR流体を用いた可変摩擦減衰エンジンマウントの試作(OS4-1 制御用センサ・アクチュエータ)

In this study, rheometers for MR fluids were developed. The shear stress were measured on changing the condition of flow rate, types of MR fluids, magnetic flux density, and gap through which MR fluids flowed. The response time of the MR fluids on the flux density were also measured. Using these experimental results, the force and the response time of devices using MR fluids were modeled. And we also suggested a new type of engine mount, in which the rotation of the engine is controlled using the mount. By controlling the damping force, the shock force among the parts was homogenized and the peak value of the force was reduced.

20109 自動車衝突時の衝撃緩和設計法に関する一考察(OS11 設計・システム)

Automobile collision causes driver and car-body serious damage. In the case of offset automobile collision, conventional shock absorbing methods are not enough to absorb the energy of the collision. In this case, shock force is not homogeneous according to absorbing parts. One part receives very high shock force. If shock force is homogeneous among the absorbing parts, the peak value of the force is lower than if it is inhomogeneous. In this study, we suggest a new type of engine mount, in which the rotation of the engine is controlled using variable dampers. By controlling the damping force, the shock force among the parts was homogenized and the peak value of the force was reduced.

PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF AN ENGINE MOUNT FEATURING ER FLUIDS AND PIEZOACTUATORS

Conventional rubber mounts and various types of passive or semi-active hydraulic engine mounts for a passenger vehicle have their own functional aims on the limited frequency band in the broad engine operating frequency range. In order to achieve high system performance over all frequency ranges of the engine operation, a new type of engine mount featuring electro-rheological(ER) fluids and piezoactuators is proposed in this study. A mathematical model of the proposed engine mount is derived using the bond graph method which is inherently adequate to model the interconnected hydromechanical system. In the low frequency domain, the ER fluid is activated upon imposing an electric field for vibration isolation while the piezoactuator is activated in the high frequency domain. A neuro-control algorithm is utilized to determine control electric field for the ER fluid, and H∞ control technique is adopted for the piezoactuator Comparative works between the proposed and single-actuating(ER fluid only or piezoactuator only) engine mounts are undertaken by evaluating force transmissibility over a wide operating frequency range.
