Abstract:
A nozzle of a piston cooling system includes a flow path defined by a structure of the nozzle and configured to receive a cooling fluid, a first flow opening fluidly coupled with the flow path and extending through the structure of the nozzle, and a second flow opening fluidly coupled with the flow path and extending through the structure of the nozzle. The first flow opening and the second flow opening are sized to enable laminar flow of corresponding first and second jets of the cooling fluid discharged through the first and second flow openings, respectively.
Abstract:
A tank device of an oil circuit of an aircraft engine for stocking oil inside an interior space that is delimited by a wall, having at least one appliance for introducing oil into the interior space. By means of the appliance for introducing oil, the area of the wall that is arranged above a minimal filling level, as it occurs during operation of an aircraft engine, can be impinged with oil.
Abstract:
A structure for attaching an oil jet valve includes a bracket secured to an internal combustion engine with a seal member, an attachment concavity extending through the interior of the bracket, an insertion hole extending through the interior of the internal combustion engine, an oil jet valve, a first stepped part formed in the oil jet valve, a second stepped part formed in the attachment concavity, and an interlocking member. The width of a wide part of the first stepped part is less than the width of a narrow part of the second stepped part. The width of the wide part of the first stepped part is less than the width of a portion, of the inner surface of the attachment concavity, that faces the wide part of the first stepped part.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a piston (10) for an internal combustion engine, which has a piston skirt (14) as well as a piston head (13) having a circumferential ring belt (21) and having a circumferential cooling channel (24) closed off with a closure element (26), wherein a circumferential recess (23) is formed between the piston head (13) and the piston skirt (14). According to the invention, it is provided that the closure element (26) consists of at least two subcomponents (27, 28), that each subcomponent (27, 28) has a radially oriented base plate (29) and at least one circumferential collar (31) oriented axially on the outer edge (29a) of the base plate (29), which collar is accommodated in at least one outer fold (34) that runs underneath the ring belt (21).
Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for supplying cooling oil to a piston of an engine cylinder. In one example, a method may include repeatedly activating an oil supply only during a part of a cylinder cycle synchronous with a reciprocating motion of the piston. In particular, supply of cooling oil may be initiated by displacing a poppet valve arranged within a piston cooling assembly via a reciprocating motion of the piston.

Abstract:
An internal combustion engine, which can improve an annual energy consumption efficiency, is provided. A gas engine 1 includes: an oil cooler 11 having a passage via which heat is exchanged between engine cooling water and lubricating oil; and a control unit 12 configured to control a temperature of the engine cooling water to a constant temperature so as to cool the lubricating oil during high load operation and to heat the lubricating oil during low to medium load operation. The control unit 12 increases the temperature of the engine cooling water during low to medium load operation compared with the temperature of the engine cooling water during high load operation. An oil jet 18a, which is configured to inject the lubricating oil into a rear surface of a piston 17, is provided.
Abstract:
Oil jet device including a main body and having a fluid communication passage held in fluid communication with an oil passageway, a nozzle pipe having an oil ejection port, a check valve opening and closing the fluid communication passage when a check ball and a valve seat which are disposed in the main body abut against each other, and a filter having a fluid communication hole and being disposed upstream of the check valve, wherein the inside diameter of the valve seat is smaller than the inside diameter of the filter, and the valve seat has an upstream end wall surface facing at least some of the fluid communication holes, and the upstream end wall surface includes a slanted surface arranged such that the cross-sectional area of an oil channel is progressively smaller in a direction from an upstream region toward a downstream region of the oil channel.
Abstract:
One example method includes varying oil injection by an oil injector onto a piston of an engine to accommodate different operating conditions. For example, by adjusting oil injection, suitable cooling effects can be provided without providing additional oil that increases the amount of oil deposits in the engine. In this way, the risk of pre-ignition can be reduced.
Abstract:
A lubrication system for an internal combustion engine includes an oil jet configured to communicate oil onto an internal engine surface. The oil jet is fluidly connected to a pressurized oil source via an oil flow controller that is configured to control oil flowrate to the oil jet in response to a temperature of the internal engine surface.
