Online Valvetrain (Advanced)

This 1-day class is designed for users with previous experience in GT-SUITE Valvetrain Applications. It will focus on the simulation of special engine valvetrains topics using GT-SUITE.

This course will be conducted online via web meeting.

To reserve your spot, you must have access to the following:

• • Computer with GT-SUITE v2022 (the training will be conducted with v2022, but if you only have v2021 that is acceptable)
  • Access to an active license
  • Good internet connection
  • Ideally two monitors/devices (although not required)
    • one to follow the instructor on the web meeting (web browser only)
    • one to use GT-SUITE for interactive model building

The following topics will be covered:

Dynamic correlation

• Typical measurements
• Recommended correlation procedures

Springs

• Comparison of Eigenfrequencies, Fatigue
• Preview of new feature outputs

Tribology

• Hertzian Stress and Film models
• Key roughness inputs
• Detailed stress analysis
• Roller crown shaping

Camshaft

• Estimating Seal data
• Bending effects

Bearings

• Simplified GT models

• Detailed HD models
• Defining odd feed geometries
• EHD (Elasto-Hydrodynamics)

HLA (Hydraulic Lash Adjuster)

• Simple GT model calibration

• Detailed flow model, breakdown and topology changes (relief valve)

Each application will be attended by small exercises to cover a broad range of applications. If time permits, more specialized topics may be covered as requested by participants.

*If you intend to participate in both Trainings (Basic and Advanced Valvetrain Modeling), please contact the instructor before registration. The regular fee will be $1300 and the university fee $700.

Due to the limited number of seats, priority will be given to commercial clients.
