RINGPAK
RINGPAK is an advanced two-dimensional simulation package for predicting ring-pack dynamics, lubrication and gas flow for optimization of the ring pack. Based around advanced lubrication, gas and ring dynamic models, the engineer is able to reduce friction, wear, blow-by and oil consumption, minimizing the need for expensive and difficult testing.
Key features
-
Piston-ring dynamics
- Gas dynamics model computes the mass flow of gas past each ring, plus inter-ring pressures
- Hydrodynamic and boundary lubrication models
- Advanced oil-consumption calculations
- 3D effects, including piston secondary motion from PISDYN and bore distortion from FEARCE
