Dynamic analysis was run in order to evaluate contact forces between crankshaft
and rotor under crankshaft torsional vibration (measured directly on the engine).
Clear effect of high unexpected vibration of the new engine against an existing
application were highlighted.

Calculated loads on shaft has been used to evaluate the lifetime of the
component.

At the end of this activity it was shown that the problem was
engine related (excessive crankshaft torsional vibrations).

Customer worked to reduce the amplitude of torsional
vibrations by tuning the engine (crankshaft modifications, new
damper, etc).
No re-design of the pump was necessary.
No additional costs for PPT.

• The present work has shown some possible numerical analyses which
can be performed to design, optimize and verify a generic variable oil
pump, in order to have a successful product with a reasonable cost.
• Thanks to CAE software, all of the numerical evaluations are executed
without the building of any prototype, with a great economy in terms
of materials and money.
• Thanks to the virtual prototyping it’s possible to explore “unusual”
working loads, not reachable with experimental tests, in order to verify
the pump also outside from the nominal conditions.
• Finally, it is worth noting the great flexibility of the current CAE
software, like ANSYS, which permit a complete multidisciplinary
approach in designing and verifying whatever mechanical component,
providing reliable results in short time
Conclusions
28. 28 © 2014 ANSYS, Inc. May 20, 2014 ANSYS Confidential
• Simulation Driven Design and Development
of a Variable Vane Pump has been
presented
• ANSYS provides simulation based solutions
for every aspect of pump analysis
• Concepts discussed here can be applied to
all types of positive displacement and
centrifugal pumps
