Objectives of the Project
The project is carried out with the following objectives.
1. The modeling and meshing of camshaft ( Hexa meshing
of the structure for better accuracy).
2. Load calculations based on fuel pump inlet, outlet pressure
and spring tensions.
3. Calculations for load acting on the camshaft.
4. Modal analysis of camshaft to find the resonance frequency.
5. Fatigue analysis of camshaft due to follower loads.
6. Contact pressure estimation through ANSYS between
cam lobe and plunger.
7. Intermediate bearing supports analysis and load distribution.
