Various processes have been developed to improve the performance of the lubrication oil pump in a recent automobile industry. In particular, trochoidal profile has been widely used for the lubrication oil pump because it is easy to flow control and a lot of oil feed rate is obtained. Accuracy of the trochoidal profile as a core component of the lubricating oil pump affects the driving performance. So, it is necessary to develop efficient processing of the trochoidal profile. In this study, a machining process for the trochoidal profile is developed by turn-mill. Cutting force, surface roughness and tool wear were evaluated in accordance with machining conditions.

Surface treatment technologies are frequently used to improve mechanical properties of surface layers of machinery components in many practical situations. Surface hardness of piston in the oil hydraulic piston pumps is very important about wear resistance. To improve hardness, wear resistance of the oil hydraulic axial piston pump, it is needed to know the surface layer characteristics in the sliding contact parts. This paper reports an experimental study on surface treatment characteristics in the piston of the oil hydraulic axial piston pump. We investigated the surface wear of a piston between untreated and nitriding-treated surfaces. We obviously observed that the surface hardness of piston in the oil hydraulic axial piston pump plays an important role to have wear resistance and remain a longer life.

Dynamic pressure is one of the major sources on noise emission in oil hydraulic piston pump. This paper reports an experimental study of dynamic pressure characteristics in the cylinder bore of oil hydraulic piston pump. We experimently measured dynamic pressure at BDC with delivery pressure, rotational speed and oil temperature. Because the V-grooves at the ends of the kidney ports with three types valve plates. We hope this paper help to design of the valve plate in oil hydraulic piston pump.

Oil gear pump is used for the cooling pump system of commercial vehicle. The hydraulic pulsation pressure of oil gear pump is one of the most important reasons for the vibration and noise of the pump. In this study, the several hydraulic factors acting on oil gear motor are analyzed by CFD in operation of cooling system. Forced vibration analysis due to hydraulic pulsation pressure is analyzed by FEA for predicting deformation and equivalent stress.

When turbochargers are applied to engines, the temperature of the engine becomes high, making the cooling of pistons very important. To solve this problem, an oil jet is used. The oil jet provides oil to the underside of piston for cooling. When an oil jet is used, oil pump size-up and oil cooler are needed because of the increased oil flow rate and higher oil temperature. On the other hand, these increase the friction torque of the engine. This study examined how much the friction torque of an engine increases by an oil jet, oil cooler, and oil pump size-up. In addition, the proportions of the friction torque of the engine increased by each part were measured by changing the engine assembly condition. At low speed, the oil pump and oil cooler had a larger effect on the friction torque than the other factors. At high speed, oil cooler had a larger effect than the other factors.

In order to analyse the effect of the fluid viscosity changes on the centrifugal pump, the computer simulation method and the performance correction chart are used. The centrifugal pump is designed using the traditional method, and the 3D computational grid is generated for the impeller and casing. Working fluids are water, high viscous oil and muddy water. The viscosity of muddy water is measured by the unsteady capillary tube viscometer. The pump performances are predicted well through the computer simulation. The performance curves of head and efficiency for oil and muddy water are decreased. The torques of oil and muddy water, which is calculated by performance correction chart are predicted at a lower value than the computer simulation.

In this paper, the cause of the discrepancy of the inlet and outlet flow of the lubricating oil feed pump was analyzed by the flow measurement and the analysis of the flow network. At first, we thought that the flow difference was induced by a leak in the middle of the flow network. But, through the flow measurement using ultrasonic flow meter and the performance analysis of the pump, we knew that the cause of the flow difference was due to a drop in efficiency of the pump according to the pressure drop of the outlet. Also, we knew that the shape of the piping had no effect on the efficiency of the pump.

It uses a tank to store, purify and feed lube oil in power plants, which is made by steel plate. Several pumps to feed lube oil are installed on the top plate of the oil tank. In this case if pumps on the top plate are removed or added, the dynamic characteristics of the structure will be changed. In this paper, we present that we analyze in detail the similar case with a finite element model for tank & pump structure coupled with oil and that we set plan to change mode shapes on the top plate of the tank.

A flow characteristics of automotive oil pump of gerotor type has been investigated numerically. For the simulation of gerotor that have different rotating velocity at inner rotor and outer rotor, node expansion and contraction method was adopted. ASI (Arbitrary Sliding Interfaces) method was also applied at interface between rotating gerotor and stationary volute. The present results showed good agreement with the experimental data.

A gerotor pump is suitable for oil hydraulics of machine tools, automotive engines, compressors, constructions and other various applications. In particular the pump is an essential machine element that feeds lubricant oil in an automotive engine. The subject of this paper is the theoretical analysis of internal lobe pump whose the main components are the two rotors. Usually the outer one is characterized by lobes with a circular shape, while the inner rotor profile is determined as a conjugate to the other. For this reason the first topic presented here is the definition of the geometry of the rotors starting from the design parameters. The choice of these parameters is subject to some limitations in order to limit the pressure angle between the rotors. Now we will consider the design optimization. The first step is the determination of the instantaneous flow rate as a function of the design parameter. This allows us to calculate three performance indexes commonly used for the study of positive displacement pumps the flow rate irregularity, the specific flow rate, and the specific slipping. These indexes are used to optimize the design of the pump and to obtain the sets of optimum design parameter Results obtained from the analysis enable the designer and manufacturer of the oil pump to be more efficient in this field.
