Abstract

There are many racing air filter products on the market with air filter fold gap of 45 microns. However, there has been no research proves that an air filter with 45 microns’ fold gap can increase the performance of a car engine. Based on this, the author is interested in conducting an experimental test analysis of the car engine air filter by modifying the factory standard air filter which has fold gap of 25 microns into an air filter that has fold gap of 45 microns. This study aims to prove whether a 45-micron air filter can increase the performance of a car engine in the form of torque, power, fuel consumption, and mechanical efficiency. The study is conducted by using dynamometer. Analysis of research data uses descriptive statistics with data presentation in the form of tables and graphs. The results of this study indicates that the effect of a 45-micron air filter on a car engine performance is proven to improve car engine performance compared to factory standard air filters with details: torque in car engine increases by 3.05%, power in car engine increases by 1.78%, the specific fuel consumption of the car engine is 1% more efficient, and the mechanical efficiency of the car engine is increased by 0.02%. Based on the research that has been done, it is necessary to do further research regarding the effect of the 45 micron racing air filter on the service life of the piston and valve in the car engine.

Abstract

Engine failure is difficult to predict, especially related to the age of engine components. Analysis of engine failure can be done based on the oil seen from the trend of wear rates, predicting the possibility of components that are damaged in the engine. The method used is a combination of oil analysis in order to determine the component that is damaged and determine the age of the component based on the trend of the element value with the Component Meter Unit (CMU) and implement the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis ( FMEA) method to support the analysis by looking at the value of the Risk Priority Number (RPN). The result of this analysis is that there is slightly above normal wear on the Cu and Pb elements, where in the last sample the values for Cu 3 and Pb 5 are Particle Per Meter (PPM). CMU predictions are also generated before passing the threshold of the wear limit based on the value of each element. Fe at 17931 hours, Cu at 25963 hours, Pb at 14417 hours and Al at 16927 hours. Wear is indicated from the FMEA analysis, there are 3 with the highest RPN, namely cutting filter result with RPN 280, noise with RPN 175 and scratch with RPN 160. From these Cu and Pb elements it can be determined which components are the source of damage, namely rocker arm bushings, wrist pin bushings, governor drive and bushings, timing gear thrust bearings, turbocharger bearings, camshaft lifter roller pins, air compressor bearings, rear cluster gear bearings and main and rod bearings. From this research, new research data can be developed, namely if there are additional parameters such as oil viscosity value.
