GMW 15570 Fuel System and Diesel Exhaust Fluid System Component Vibration Test Standard

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance service within the scope of GMW 15570 standard. In order to measure the effect of fuel environment on fatigue performance of fuel tank materials, a comparative study was conducted on vibration fatigue properties of base material samples in fuel and air environment.

Fuel tanks are essential components of the energy supply system for vehicles such as diesel locomotives, automobiles, airplanes and ships, and are under complex loads in operation.

Due to the vibration of the fuel inside the fuel tank, the fuel tank will be deformed under the influence of the fuel load, which will affect the size and distribution of the fuel load

It must withstand not only the shock and vibration caused by rail irregularity, but also the liquid-solid coupling effect caused by fuel vibration. The coupling between fuel and tank is a highly nonlinear and stochastic process and presents a very complex dynamic problem.

Under complex loading conditions, stress is likely to be concentrated in the weld seam or other weak locations of the fuel tank, and these parts will suffer fatigue cracking; therefore, it is necessary to perform a vibration fatigue analysis.

Due to the large volume and mass of diesel fuel tanks, studies on fatigue characteristics are mainly carried out on materials and scaled models.
