Abstract

An active control engine mount system has been developed to control noise and vibration in a completed vehicle employing a 3-liter V6 cylinder-on-demand engine. The research described in this paper focused on the fact that engine vibrations caused by fluctuations in torque can be estimated from fluctuations in crank revolution, and developed a new fixed feed forward control algorithm which does not employ sensors such as a load cell or an accelerometer. A higher responsive low-heat linear solenoid actuator has been developed for use in the system, and its unique coupling structure with an excitation plate inside the hydraulic engine mount makes it extremely reliable. The results show that noise and vibration performance at three-cylinder drive is equivalent to that obtained at full-cylinder drive.
