Abstract

The article presents an adaptation of the Gaevsky-Zhidkov method for estimating the balance of high-speed small-sized internal combustion engines using the idle characteristic, as well as propeller and external speed characteristics. The main task was to develop a test bench that provides high accuracy, repeatability of measurements and the ability to test internal combustion engines with working volume of up to 3.5 cm3 at shaft speeds of up to 37,000 rpm. The test bench makes it possible to determine the characteristics of the “engine-propeller”, the no-load characteristic, and also to carry out quick reconfiguration of the test facility when changing the internal combustion engine structure. As a result of the experimental study, the propeller characteristics of seven propellers, the no-load characteristics for the base electric motor and an electric motor with imbalance were determined. Using these results, the external speed characteristics of an internal combustion micro-engine with working volume of 2.5 cm3 were compared for two levels of balancing.
