Experimental Evaluation Of Impulse Turbine Designs For Chain Testing Systems, Aaron Donlon Jan 2002

Experimental Evaluation Of Impulse Turbine Designs For Chain Testing Systems, Aaron Donlon

Theses

There are several ways to test automotive timing chains for wear in a laboratory environment. One novel method proposed by Borg-Warner Morse TEC uses fluid jets striking an impeller blade. The momentum of the oil striking and deflected by the impeller blade is used to produce a torque. This torque is transmitted to the system through the timing chain. A previous theoretical design study (conducted elsewhere) evaluated some of the design factors as they related to machine performance and ultimately to the torque loads applied to the chain. From this theoretical study came the design for two novel bucket and …
