Research of Wear Resistance of a Covering of Shafts of the Turbocharger of the Diesel Engine Restored by Means of a Gas-Dynamic Spraying

Abstract

The analysis of tribological researches on the most perspective way of restoration of a primary resource of engines by means of a gas-dynamic spraying is resulted in article. It was found that to reduce the coefficient of friction and increase the wear resistance of the coating is theoretically justified the use of copper-zinc powders brand C-01-11, applied by gas-dynamic spraying. It is established that the physical and mechanical properties of the coatings (roughness, microhardness, friction coefficient) on the restored turbocharger meet the requirements of the manufacturer. The coefficient of friction in the connection, the rotor shaft (reduced powder with copper and zinc), with a plain bearing (made of tin-lead bronze Bros - 10 - 10) is 20 % less than in the connection where the rotor shaft is made of steel 40. The total wear in the bearing assembly with the restored gas-dynamic sprayed rotor shaft is 20 % lower than in the assembly where the rotor shaft is restored by the basic technology. The technology of restoration of a surface of a shaft of a rotor of the turbocompressor, under the bearing of sliding (gas-dynamic spraying) which increases its resource by 23 % in comparison with basic technology of repair of a shaft of a rotor is developed. This allows you to increase its operating time with the established regulatory and technical documentation for overhaul of the engine. A stand for testing diesel turbochargers with recovery technology has been developed, which allows to determine the parameters and characteristics of diesel engine turbochargers in different periods of operation, running-in and adjustment. Tests on the stand showed that turbochargers with restored rotor shafts according to the proposed technology after 2000 operating hours increase all performance by 13 % more than turbochargers repaired by the basic technology. Operational tests have shown that turbochargers repaired using the proposed technology have an operating time of 989 moto-hours more than turbochargers repaired with existing technology
