Using the powder metallurgy method, 3 different samples were produced with the codes A1, A6 and A11. Mixing, pressing and sintering processes were applied respectively as production steps. Mixing time is 90 minutes, speed is 15 rpm. The pressing pressure is 250 MPa and the duration is 1 min. The sintering temperature was 800 °C and the sintering time was 1, 6 and 11 hours, respectively. The sintering process was carried out in the sintering mold using Argon gas. As the sintering time increased, it was observed that there was an increase in the time-dependent friction coefficients of the samples. Increasing the sintering time also increased the density of the samples. As the sintering time increased, the gap in the sample decreased, as it provided better bonding of the dustsers.","PeriodicalId":13841,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Automotive Engineering and Technologies","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73245199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Biodiesel is an important research topic not only because it is a renewable energy source, but also because it is an environmentally friendly fuel that can be produced as efficiently as petroleum-derived fuels. The raw materials used are as important as the production parameters in the production of biodiesel fuels. Hemp is not a widely cultivated plant because its cultivation is subject to government control. However, by breeding, the production of species containing low amount of stimulant and high amount of seed and fiber can be realized. In case of an efficient fuel production in compliance with the determined standards, the hemp plant can be accepted as a raw material that can also be evaluated in the field of energy. In order to guide the studies to be carried out for this purpose, in this study, the conformity of the fuel obtained by producing biodiesel from hemp seed oil to the standards was examined. As a result of the fuel analysis, it has been seen that the fuel properties of the produced hemp biodiesel are largely compatible with the TS EN 14214 standards. The results obtained provided a sufficient starting point for the development of the study.","PeriodicalId":13841,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Automotive Engineering and Technologies","volume":"61 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84896139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The spray and temperature distributions of two different fuels in the AVL FIRE program also were examined. Tribological and morphological analysis of piston rings were investigated in a single-cylinder direct injection diesel engine using two different fuel types. The test engine used two different fuel types and was operated for approximately 110 hours under part engine load. Renewed rings in each fuelled engine operation were analyzed at Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Results were also compared with the non-worked piston ring. Analysis results saw that abrasive wear was more intense on the first rings at both fuel types. Examining the effect of biofuels on engine wears, short wear lines were found at engine rings using diesel/bioethanol blend fuel compared to diesel fuel. It was being determined that this situation was a result of combustion parameters (such as pressure, and temperature) created with the different fuels used in diesel engines. As a result, that bioethanol has a content of low carbon (C) compared to diesel fuel, making a positive contribution to the reduction of ring wear.","PeriodicalId":13841,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Automotive Engineering and Technologies","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86115997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this design, the issues of enabling a lighting field supported by image processing programmed with machine learning, dynamic adjustment of the high beam headlights’ LED cells in response to the vehicle approaching from the opposite direction, traffic-sign recognition system, lane-keeping system, and automatic adjustment of headlight angles were addressed. In this direction, a novel dynamic headlight model that will reduce the risk of accidents caused by lighting was presented, and its analyses were performed.","PeriodicalId":13841,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Automotive Engineering and Technologies","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79531450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the most important reasons why the usage areas of these machines are so wide is that they have a design that includes both excavation and loading capabilities. With different attachments attached to both the backhoe and loader mechanisms, backhoe loader machines can have a wide variety of operating capabilities. In this study, weight reduction of the backhoe arm of a backhoe loader is carried out. The results obtained from the analyzes made on the existing design gave direction to the weight reduction process. While creating alternative models within the scope of the weight reduction process, the structures of the connection points of the mechanisms, their positions and the distances between these connection points were kept constant, allowing all alternative designs to be mounted on the machine without the need to make any changes on the existing machine. With this weight reduction study, it is aimed to reduce the weight and fuel consumption of the machine as well as to increase the operating efficiency of the machine. Structural analyzes were made on the optimum structure obtained, and it was examined whether the new model was suitable for working conditions in terms of strength. The current design and the optimized design are compared in terms of strength and operating performance.","PeriodicalId":13841,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Automotive Engineering and Technologies","volume":"93 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75862325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By applying direct injection in the Wankel engine, the specific fuel consumption and HC emissions, which are seen as disadvantages for this engine, might be reduced and the mixture formation is improved. In order to obtain a better mixture formation, the fuel injector must be located in a proper place and a correct direction. In addition, the most suitable injector for the engine structure should be selected. In this study, direct injection was applied for the RENESIS 13B Wankel engine and injector selection for the engine and the location of the injector on the housing were examined. In addition, the diameter of orifice and flow rate characteristics of the injector were investigated. According to the results, two types of injectors were selected. These injectors were called as low speed and high speed. An injector with a narrow nozzle angle (<30°) was used to deliver the fuel to the leading of the chamber, and the fuel injected after the intake ports closed. The orifice diameters of low-speed and high- speed injectors were measured 0.33 and 0.45 mm, respectively. In addition, both injectors have low speed rates when injection duration was below 2 ms. This flow rate was increased by providing high voltage.","PeriodicalId":13841,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Automotive Engineering and Technologies","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75312275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
