Intricate dynamics and hydrodynamic frictional losses of the piston-ring assembly in internal combustion engines
<p>Frictional losses in internal combustion engines approximately account for 10% of the expended fuel energy. Moreover, forty percent of these losses are attributed to the reciprocating motion of the piston-assembly. Besides the adverse effect of friction on fuel economy, the intricate dynamics of …
