Location Design of Engine Knock Sensor based on Frequency Response Calculation
In the early development stage of a 3-cylinder gasoline engine of a certain model,according to the phenomenon of combustion chamber resonance caused by engine knock and propagating to the cylin-der block,the frequency response of the cylinder block in the frequency domain was calculated by using GT-power software and Abaqus/Standard solver through finite element analysis.The calculation results were analyzed to determine the appropriate knock sensor location.
