디젤동차용 엔진 라이너 파손 원인에 관한 연구

In this study, we investigated the cause analysis on fracture of diesel locomotive engine liner, which was trouble assuming the inflow of cooling water. In order to reveal the cause of fracture, we studied the use history of engine, the drawing of production appearance and the stress distribution of engine in use. Also, we conducted experiments such as tension strength test, bending test and hardness test. Next, we observed fractured sections by SEM for the purposed of explaining the fracture mechanism of engine liner. Test results showed that fracture mechanism was brittle fracture due to coarse casting structure and stress concentration caused by manufacturing badness.
