Erratum to: Simulation and bench studies of the constructively and technologically modernized high performance piston aircraft engine. Stage I

摘要

In Ostapski et al., Bull. Pol. Ac.: Tech 65(1), 93-105 (2017), doi: 10.1515/bpasts-2017-0012, an analysis of tribological wear of an assembly composed of cylinder liner and piston rings in a piston aircraft engine was presented. In place of the previously used technology of gas nitriding of the cylinder liner (made out of 38CrAlMo6-10 steel), formation of multi-component or composite layers by nitriding in plasma discharge environment was proposed. Also, a modification of the previously used chromium coating of the piston rings by plasma nitriding was proposed. A study on the structure and properties of surface layer diffusion manufactured by utilizing the phenomenon of cathode sputtering was carried out. Wear resistance tests were performed on a specially designed bench, with the use of isotope markers. Verification of each of the friction couples was based on using the wear of the ring as a function of the distance trip, and the roughness of the cylinder liner and ring. This note corrects flaws in illustrations published in the original paper.
