Powertrain Mechanics
CAE Validation & Troubleshooting
CAE
and testing is one of the basic rules for development and release of
new methodologies. Development standards are continuously kept at the
highest possible level. For an efficient solution of non-standard
development issues in terms of troubleshooting project, the merging of
simulation and measurement is often the key to success.

Typical CAE validation and troubleshooting efforts include:
- Piston secondary motion
- Dynamic friction of piston group (PIFFO)
- Crankshaft fillets stress
- Dynamic chain forces
- High-speed telemetric investigations
- Journal bearing orbit determination
- Valvetrain dynamics behavior
- Oil pressure dynamics / cavitation
- Oil aeration analysis / visualization
- Coolant flow analysis / visualization
- Liner bore distortion (in fired mode)
- Thermal strain development (TMF)
- Thermal scans (exhaust track)
