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.
Thermo Mechanical Fatigue

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)
