  1. 16. Design of Virtual Crank Angle Sensor based on Torque Estimation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektro- och systemteknik (EES)

    Author : Tobias Roswall; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The topic of thesis is estimation of the crank angle based on pulse signals from an induction sensor placed on the flywheel. The engine management system performs many calculations in the crank angle domain which means that a good accuracy is needed for this measurement. READ MORE

  3. 17. Crank Angle Based Virtual Cylinder Pressure Sensor in Heavy-Duty Engine Application

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Mikael Gustafsson; [2015]
    Keywords : CLCC; in-cylinder pressure; cylinder separation; torsion.;

    Abstract : The in-cylinder pressure is an important signal that gives information about the combustion process. To further improve engine performance, this information can be used as a feedback signal in a control system. Usually a pressure sensor is mounted in the cylinder to extract this information.

  4. 18. New materials in sliding bearings

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Johan Salomon; [2015]
    Keywords : Sliding bearing; wear; start-stop; hydrodynamic lubrication; Glidlager; nötning; start stopp; fullfilmssmörjning;

    Abstract : Increasing demands for lower emissions from heavy trucks and buses creates new demands on the components in the engine. One such component is the journal bearing which is used at many positions in the engine. Implementing a start-stop system in a truck engine leads to that the crankshaft journal bearing gets worn out too quickly. READ MORE

  5. 19. A model-based design approach to redesign a crankshaft for powder metal manufacturing

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Vasileios Angelopoulos; [2015]
    Keywords : Crankshaft; balancing; modularization; Powder Metallurgy; Vevaxel; balansering; modularisering; pulvermetallurgi;

    Abstract : A crankshaft is a component which is used to convert a reciprocating movement into rotating or vice versa. Through the past years classical manufacturing techniques did not leave space for a new approach regarding manufacturing this component. READ MORE

  6. 20. Virtual Sensors for Combustion Parameters Based on In-Cylinder Pressure

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Tobias Johansson; [2015]
    Keywords : CLCC; virtual sensors; combustion parameters; in-cylinder pressure; heat release; heat-release; heavy duty vehicle;

    Abstract : Typically the combustion in engines are open-loop controlled. By using an in-cylinder pressure sensor it is possible to create virtual sensors for closed-loop combustion control (CLCC). With CLCC it is possible to counteract dynamic effects as component ageing, fuel type and cylinder variance. READ MORE
