Original abstract

The paper deals with research of an engine block load caused particularly by inertia effects of the crank train rotating parts. Substantial reduction of this load can be achieved by an appropriate design of the crankshaft counterweights. The relation between crank train internal moments of rotating parts and the engine block load is investigated in the case of an I4 MPI engine with two variants of the crank train design. Used methodology is based on MBS simulations, where modally reduced flexible bodies and computational model of a hydrodynamic bearing are included.
