Testrigg för Tätning av Marin Transmission

Sammanfattning: The aim of the project is to create a concept proposal on a fundamental construction of a test equipment for Volvo Penta, where observations of their seals can be carried out. The current day problem is the difficulty to obtain consistent test results during test experiments in the oceans, due to the test environment never being identical to another.  The factors that affect the test environment was initially examined, where a list of those we considered having the biggest impact was created. In addition, discussion upon the requirements to obtain a functional equipment took place. A thorough information gathering process was carried out to establish a work foundation, of the theory necessary to assemble a construction. Material comparisons and mechanical strength simulations using FEA, was examined. The result became a theoretical test equipment that met the requirement specification, function analysis. The test equipment was presented in 3D modeled pictures using CAD.
