Annotation

The study focuses on abrasive wear caused by dust particles in the air, fuel, and lubrication systems of diesel engines. The mechanisms of wear formation and development in each system were analyzed, as well as their impact on the durability of cylinder-piston assemblies, plunger pairs, injectors, and bearing units.
It was found that abrasive particles in the intake air are the main cause of cylinder and piston wear. To minimize these effects, improvements to air-cleaning systems were proposed through the use of multistage filters with increased efficiency and optimized geometry. In the fuel supply system, the presence of fine solid particles was shown to cause accelerated wear of precision components such as plunger pairs and injectors, emphasizing the need for highly efficient fuel filtration elements. In the lubrication system, oil contamination and additive degradation were identified as major contributors to accelerated wear of piston rings and crankshaft bearings. The use of high-quality lubricants and continuous monitoring of oil pressure were recommended as diagnostic tools for predicting component wear and the need for overhaul.
The analysis revealed significant potential for improving the reliability and service life of diesel engines by optimizing filtration systems, maintaining stable thermal conditions, and ensuring proper maintenance of cooling systems. The findings indicate that enhancing filtration, lubrication, and diagnostic systems in an integrated manner can substantially extend the durability of automotive and tractor diesel engines.
Additionally, the study provides a scientific basis for developing advanced maintenance and monitoring strategies aimed at preventing premature failures in internal combustion engines. The results can be applied to the design of adaptive diagnostic systems and the modernization of maintenance procedures for agricultural, construction, and transport machinery. The proposed approach contributes to reducing operational costs, improving environmental performance, and extending the sustainable operation period of diesel engines in various industries.The article presents the results of the applied research project “Development of the technical and technological support for a hybrid power supply system of livestock complexes with an adaptive control system” (№ 0125U000363).

Keywords: diesel fuel equipment, plunger pairs, hydraulic density, discharge valve, injector nozzles, fuel filtration, filter element.

History of journal:

Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC is a scholarly professional journal with a long-standing history and stable academic tradition, reflecting the evolution of engineering and technical sciences within the agro-industrial sector of Ukraine.

The journal was founded in 1997 under the title Bulletin of Vinnytsia State Agricultural Institute. According to the Resolution of the Presidium of the Higher Attestation Commission of Ukraine dated September 11, 1997, the publication obtained the status of a professional scientific journal, which enabled the publication of the main results of doctoral and candidate dissertations in technical sciences. From its inception, the journal positioned itself as an academic platform for addressing current issues of mechanization, electrification, and technical support of agricultural production.

During 2001–2014, the journal was published under the title Proceedings of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University. Series: Technical Sciences (State Registration Certificate of Print Media KV No. 16644-5116 PR dated April 30, 2010). Throughout this period, a systematic approach to the selection and peer review of scientific manuscripts was established, the thematic scope of publications was expanded, and continuity of scientific directions as well as the development of sectoral engineering schools was ensured.

Since 2015, the journal has been published under its current title, Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC (State Registration Certificate No. 21906-11806 R dated March 12, 2016). The change of title reflected the expansion of the journal’s thematic coverage and its orientation toward interdisciplinary research in mechanical engineering, energy systems, electrical engineering, transport technologies, automation, and digital solutions for the agro-industrial complex.

The journal consistently adheres to the principles of open science. All published materials are distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0), ensuring open access to research results provided proper attribution to the authors and the original publication is maintained.

At present, Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC is an authoritative professional scientific journal (Category B), providing a platform for the publication of fundamental and applied research results, promoting the integration of education, science, and industry, and contributing to the advancement of engineering and technological support of the agro-industrial complex of Ukraine.
