The performance of cooling fan is affected by many peripheral parts, such as radiator, condenser, engine block and etc. Higher power has been requested in more confined automobile engine room. Thus, cooling performance becomes very important to remove the heat generated from the automobile engine more efficiently. In this paper, the performance of cooling fan including effects of engine block is investigated by using a fan tester based on the ASHRAE and the AMCA standards. A flow rate - gap distance curves and a flow rate - engine block constant curves are obtained from this study.

Recently, according to the tendency to the more comfortable automobile, the improvement of performance of the cooling fan is required. The performance of cooling fan is affected by many peripheral parts, such as radiator, condenser, engine block and etc. Therefore, it is important to consider the effect of peripheral components on the fan performance in design and analysis stages. In this paper, the performance of automobile cooling fan is investigated experimentally by using the large capacity fan tester based on the ASHRAE and the AMCA standards. In particular, the various spacing between cooling fan and engine block are considered to obtain the effect of engine block. An empirical relation between the fan flow rate and the spacing was proposed.

In this study, steady state heat conduction problems of the cylinder block of turbocharged gasoline engine were solved by the boundary element method. Surface of the cylinder block was divided by the triangular cells with constant potential. Temperature distribution, effective heat transfer coefficient of the cylinder block were investigated with variation of equivalence ratio, engine speed and boost pressure. The results show that maximum temperature of cylinder block increase rapidly with increasing engine speed and boost pressure. The monolithic structure of cylinder block results in sever inhomogeneity of inner wall temperature at the high engine speed and boost pressure.

The dynamic stress of the diesel engine block is analyzed by using flexible-body dynamic analysis. Multiple loadings including the pressure load due to gas combustion, thermal load, and dynamic load are considered. Thermal load is assumed constant, however, pressure load and dynamic load are treated as time dependent. The present work is focused on the dynamic stress analysis, especially on finding critical points of the engine block. The analysis model includes four parts - engine block, generator, bed, and mounts. On the other hand, crank shaft, pistons, and main bearings are excluded from the model. However, their dynamic effects are applied by dynamic forces, obtained in the separate analysis. Dynamic stress is found by using flexible body dynamic analysis, and compared to the measured data.
