Effects of Piston Profiles on Oil Film Behavior by Means of LIF/PIV

Analysis of a behavior of the oil film between piston and cylinder is one of the key technologies for reducing the friction loss in the internal combustion (IC) engine. Laser induced fluorescence (LIF) method and particle image velocimetry (PIV) are applied to measure the oil film thickness and the velocity simultaneously in a test engine. Effects of a barrel shape to oil film behavior on the piston skirt are discussed.
