Resumo: In internal combustion engines, the valvetrain is responsible for up to 25% of the friction losses, at rotational frequencies below 2000 rpm. Important friction losses in valvetrain come from the contact between the cam and the tappet. Despite to manufacturer specifications for the engine lubricant, the lubricant viscosity can be changed under some conditions, affecting the cam-tappet contact forces. Also, the surface conditions of cam and tappet can affect these friction forces. This work presents a bench mono-valve experimental apparatus and results for frictional force investigations, using aged engine lubricant SN5W30, with viscosity modifications. The influence of a tappet crown coated with H-DLC is investigated, comparing to standard tappets. These experiments showed that, under specific experimental conditions, the friction forces between the cam and the tappet are the lowest with H-DLC application, for all lubricant viscosity applied.

Perdas importantes por atrito no trem de válvulas vêm do contato entre o came e o tucho. Apesar das especificações do fabricante para o lubrificante do motor, a viscosidade do lubrificante pode ser alterada em algumas condições, afetando as forças de contato came-tucho. Além disso, as condições da superfície do came e do tucho podem afetar essas forças de atrito. Este trabalho apresenta um aparato experimental de bancada monoválvula e resultados para investigações de força de atrito, utilizando lubrificante de motor envelhecido SN5W30, com modificações de viscosidade. A influência de uma coroa de tucho revestida com H-DLC é investigada, comparando com tucho padrão. Esses experimentos mostraram que, sob condições experimentais específicas, as forças de atrito entre o came e o tucho, quando o revestimento H-DLC é aplicado, são menores do que com o tucho padrão, para todas as viscosidades do lubrificante.Universidade Federal do Rio Grande2022-07-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.furg.br/vetor/article/view/1341710.14295/vetor.v32i1.13417VETOR - Journal of Exact Sciences and Engineering; Vol. 32 No. 1 (2022); 23-30VETOR - Revista de Ciências Exatas e Engenharias; v. 32 n. 1 (2022); 23-302358-34520102-7352reponame:Vetor (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande (FURG)instacron:FURGenghttps://periodicos.furg.br/vetor/article/view/13417/9721Copyright (c) 2022 VETOR - Revista de Ciências Exatas e Engenhariasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRatamero, LeandroVencovsky, Paulo 2022-07-15T17:35:53Zoai:periodicos.furg.br:article/13417Revistahttps://periodicos.furg.br/vetorPUBhttps://periodicos.furg.br/vetor/oaigmplatt@furg.br2358-34520102-7352opendoar:2022-07-15T17:35:53Vetor (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande (FURG)false
