This course is designed for those interested in Cranktrain modeling and analysis in GT-SUITE. It will focus on the simulation of engine cranktrain dynamics through the use of GT-SUITE. The following topics will be covered:
Introductory Concepts of GT-SUITE:
- 2-D Mechanical Simulation
- Model Setup- initialization, parameters sweeps, Optimization/Design of Experiments
- Post-processing (GT-POST)
- Subassemblies and User Compounds
Rigid Crankshaft Analysis
- Crankshaft Balancing
- Cylinder Pressure Boundary Conditions Applied
Crankshaft Torsional Analysis
- Time Domain Solution with Steady State Convergence
- Frequency Domain Solutions (Free and Forced)
Crankshaft Quasi-Static and Dynamic Bending Solution
- Fillet Stress Calculations Based on Dynamic Loading
- Coupled Journal Bearing Solution
If time permits, extra and more specialized topics may be covered. The topics will selected by the participants. Some possible topics are: Block Vibration, Integrated Simulations (e.g cranktrain + valvetrain, cranktrain + drivetrain), Transient simulations, user-supplied
Note: This course may be offered as a future open registration event OR requested as a custom training at a GTI office location or your location.
