The gas motion inside the engine cylinder plays a very important role in determining the thermal efficiency of an internal combustion engine. A precise information of in-cylinder three dimensional complex gas motion is crucial in optimizing engine design. Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine is a combustion concept, which is a hybrid between Otto and Diesel engine. The turbulent diffusion leads to increased rates of momentum, heat and mass transfer. The in-cylinder turbulence flow was found to affect the present HCCI combustion mainly through its influence on the wall heat transfer. This study investigates the effect of piston geometry shape on the turbulent flow characteristics of in-cylinder from the numerical analysis using the LES model and the results obtained can offer guidelines of the combustion geometries for better combustion process and engine performance.

Type-3 cylinder liner has a limitation of machining the standard specimen for fracture toughness test because it has approximately 5 mm in thickness as well as a curvature. Hence, it needs to be employed a miniature specimen test technique to evaluate fracture toughness of the cylinder liner. In this study, small punch (SP) test method was employed to evaluate fracture toughness of the cylinder liner. Load-displacement curve result measured from the SP test showed that the liner material was failed during membrane stretching in the general SP load-displacement curve. Additionally, it was shown that liner material was isotropic although the amount of plastic deformation was different depending on the direction due to manufacturing process characteristics. Fracture toughness, $J_{Ic}$, was evaluated using the SP test data. The value of fracture toughness obtained was $13.0kJ/m^2$. This value was similar to that of the same kind of materials. Therefore, the fracture toughness evaluated using the SP test data was reasonable.

A gas-spring has been used in many areas and its use is increasing because it can be designed for a range of purposes. In this study, the behavior of a piston with an orifice hole inside the gas-spring cylinder was predicted using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The piston was designed to reduce the reaction force if the gas-spring is compressed and to move at a low speed when it is returned. The analysis showed that if the initial gas pressure in the gas-spring is increased to a certain level, the speed of the piston would not decrease with time but will remain constant. The effects of orifice hall size on the piston return speed were investigated. Reducing the size of the orifice hole will increase the pressure difference on both sides of the piston, reduce the piston speed, and make it more constant. On the assumption of a constant speed of the piston, a theoretical solution to the return speed of the piston was derived according to the initial gas pressure, and the results for several initial gas pressures were compared with those of CFD. Comparison studies showed similar results for both methods.

In this study are determined the unsteady temperature and thermal stress fields for a domestic 4-cylinder, 4-cycle gasoline engine cylinder head by the three-dimensional finite element method. A representative part of the cylinder head is modelled as a combination of hexahedron isoparametric elements, and the time-dependent temperature and the heat transfer coefficient of the gas are imposed as the thermal boundary conditions for the engine speeds of 500 rpm and 2000 rpm. The obtained results, which are represented graphically, indicate that the amplitudes of temperature fluctuation during a cycle are about 10.deg. C and 3.deg. C respectively on the surface of combustion chamber, and the maximum temperature fields occur at 30.deg. , 10.deg. respectively before the initiation of the exhaust stroke. Thermal stress fields due to non-uniform temperature distributions show that compressive stress is much larger than tensile stress throughout a cycle. It is also found that the compressive stress varies with substantial amplitude between the exhaust port and ignition plug hole, and the high tensile stress with small fluctuation occurs between exhaust port and the adjacent head bolt hole.

Engine power cylinder parts are faced with more severe wear and friction environment. For instance, emission gas recirculation (EGR), one of the most valid technologies related to emission legislation, is known to accelerate wear of piston ring and cylinder liner. Therefore, advanced materials and surface treatments have been developed and adopted successively so that a need exists for an accurate and repeatable friction and wear bench test for various combination of piston ring and cylinder liner that more closely relates to engine test result. This paper introduces accelerative bench wear test method for piston ring and cylinder liner, presents the experimental result of friction and wear properties of piston ring surface treatments that noticed in substitution for hard chrome plating.

In this study, a computer analysis has been developed for predicting the pipe pressure of the intake and exhaust manifold in a single cylinder engine. To get the boundary conditions for a numerical analysis, one dimensional and unsteady gas dynamic calculation is performed by using the MOC(Method Of Characteristic). The main numerical parameters are the variation of the exhaust pipe diameters to calculate the pulsating flow when the intake and exhaust valves are working. As the results of numerical analysis, the shapes and distributions of the exhaust pipe pressures were influenced strongly on the cylinder pressure. As the exhaust pipe diameter is decreased, the amplitude of exhaust pressure is large and the cylinder pressure was showed low in the region of intake valve opening time.
