Study on Test and Evaluation of Engine Mounting System Based on Transmission Force

Abstract

The vibration isolation performance of the engine mounting system can be evaluated by the transmission force. The transmission force characteristics of engine mounting system are analyzed by simulation and test. The 6-DOF model of engine mounting system is established by ADAMS software. The results of modal parameters and transmission force of engine mounting system are obtained by simulation. The force sensor is made with resistance strain gauge. The sensor is calibrated by chassis dynamometer method. The transmission force of the engine mounting system is tested under the complete vehicle condition. The test results of transmission force and acceleration transmissibility are compared. It is proved that the transmission force is more suitable to evaluate the vibration isolation performance of the mounting system when the vehicle is running at medium and high speed.
