Valve train and timing drive dynamics simulation software AVL

Dynamic Simulation of Valvetrain

The cam lobe profiles are pre-specified to meet the performance and durability development targets. The dynamic behaviour of the valve train is verified using sophisticated analysis methods and tools available in the AVL TYCON software package. The valve train is optimised for low weight, friction and wear, yet meeting the durability target and considering the production capability and material properties.

The entire valve train including the camshaft drive (chain,belt or gears) is optimised to avoid excessive vibrations and dynamic forces in the system, which lead to premature failure and excessive noise. The analysis is validated by advanced measurement techniques capturing the dynamics of valve train components supports.
