Intake E-CVVT noise, generally caused by collision sound of roller and cage clearance at idle and driving condition, is considerable source of annoyance in passenger cars using the gasoline engine. Main source of this noise is the cam torque variation of an intake E-CVVT system, and can be controlled by clearance decrease such as backlash reduction, but which may increase the manufacturing cost. Thus in this paper, most effective solution for low noise intake E-CVVT was achieved through not only reduction of backlash and cam angular acceleration but also improvement of vehicle transfer system, which is optimal configuration through acoustic sensitivity optimization of engine mount support bracket.

Great attentions are paid to HSDI diesel engine for passenger cars because of its high thermal efficiency. The most interesting research in HSDI diesel engine developments is focused on applying common rail system as a fuel injection equipment. In this study, a series of tests are carried out to investigate the effect of injection pressure variation on the smoke and fuel concluded in a small HSDI diesel engine with common rail system. As a result of this study it is concluded that there is an optimum rail pressure dependent on combustion system such as nozzle type, combustion chamber geometry.

In order to satisfy customer's requirements of ride comfort and high performance, it is necessary for designers to fully understand vehicle aerodynamics and wind noise of newly produced cars because characteristics of flow and wind noise are heavily dependent on each other. In this study numerical and experimental study have been carried out to analyse the effect of flow characteristics at around of rear view mirror on wind noise and soiling on the front S/W. As a result, it's found that the spiral flow mear the front pillar is weakened and spreaded because rear view mirror obstructs the flow. It is also shown that there is abrupt change of gradient of separa- tion line, separation area, intensity of spiral flow and turbulent kinetic energy with varying shape of neck and housing of rear view mirror.

We are going to propose equations for stable static and endurance strength design of driveshafts. It is very important to decide the contact normal stress of internal components of CV joints. We can estimate the strength, torque capacity, endurance life of CV joints from contact normal stress by presented equation in this paper. Besides it can be shown the equation for shaft design.

이 글은 영구의 자동차내부 소음연구와 보버르트(Bobbert)의 첫 번재 독일어로 쓰인 연구를 다루고 있다. 승용차내부소음은 높은 적외파음향(infra sound)으로 특징지어 진다. 그런 까닭으로 그러한 종류의 소음을 A-평가계측(A-rated measurement)으로 그 영향을 파알하는 것은 한계가 있다. 자동차음향공학은 특히 인공청각(artificial head)기술의 발전, 소리의 합성적 제조 및 다양한 자동차 내부 음색(timbre)에 대한 일본연구가들 (하쉬모토, 쿠와노, 남바)에 의해 상당산 성취를 경험하였다. 위의 연구들은 무엇보다도 의미분별기법(Semantic Differentials)과 다차원측정방법(Multidimen-sional Scaling)을 사용하고 있다. 그러한 기법의 사용은 심리측정방법을 심리음향학(Psycho-acoustics), 특히 츠뷔커학파(Zwicker school)의 심리음향학 방법론과 결합한 것으로 볼 수 있다.

For a driving vehicle, a self-excited vibration of a pair of steerable wheels about their steering axis accompanied by tramp is called shimmy. Shimmy is caused by the coupling effects of the complicated actions of wheel and tire and the tramp motion of front wheel axle. Because front axle is no longer used on passenger cars shimmy occurring is not considerable. But in commercial vehicles using front wheel axle suspension system shimmy should be considered in design process. In this paper, the model closed to a practical vehicle was developed to analyze the shimmy of a commercial vehicle, and the effects of various design parameters to shimmy were observed by dynamic simulation with multibody dynamics program, DADS. The validity of developed model and analysis results were verified by practical vehicle experiments.

Pressure drop and fractional collection efficiency of automotive cabin air filters were examined to obtain the basic data for the development of high performance domestic cabin air filters. Pressure drop of MA-V100 was higher than that of VF-V100, and it increased with the air flow rate. VF-V100 had longer time to rise the critical pressure drop than that MA-V100 had. Total collection efficiency of MA-V100 for initial and dust loaded conditions was higher than that of VF-V100. Also, fractional collection efficiency of MA-V100 for the fine particles was higher than that of VF-V100. Particla size distribution for the minimum collection efficiency ranged from 0.02 $\mu$m to 0.04 $\mu$m for MA-V100 and it ranged from 0.02 $\mu$m to 0.15 $\mu$m for VF-V100.

This article deals with the numerical analysis results of stiffness of diaphragm spring used in the clutch of a manual transmission. In order to investigate the relationship of the force and displacement in a diaphragm spring, we have established a numerical model of diaphragm spring using a well-known analytic model of Belleville spring and a cantilever beam model for the finger part of diaphragm spring. Using the stress and strain relations of Belleville spring and cantilever beam, we propose the analytic equation of motion of diaphragm spring for the use of a clutch automated actuator in an automated manual transmission. The proposed analytic model represents the typical dynamic characteristics of diaphragm spring along with the release bearing travel. And it is characterized in a closed-form equation, therefore it can be used for the further study of development of actuator and control law of clutch automating mechanism.

This paper deals with energy-saving effort in the hydraulic power steering system. Commonly, the hydraulic power steering systems are used for passenger cars and the reduction of pumping loss under non-steering condition is important to improve fuel economy. Experiments and simulations are performed simultaneously to examine the main factors to reduce the pumping loss-pressure loss and flow rate of the power steering systems. Fuel economy effect of the optimal design of power steering system is verified by vehicle test - more than 1% fuel consuming reduction is attained.

The diesel engines was invented a little more than one hundred years ago and has ever since been developed for better fuel economy, increased power and smaller size. Thanks to its fuel economy, the diesel engine is today the dominating prime mover in many applications, such as smaller power plants, commercial ships, trains, trucks, buses and all kinds of mobile construction machinery. As engine for passenger cars, the diesel engine is steadily increasing its share of the market. However, its versatility and, consequently, large prevalence have led to environmental demands to its exhaust emissions, noise and vibration. This paper deals with the noise aspects of diesel engine designs of the so-called low speed two-stroke type installed in most large ships.
