Modern vehicles are equipped with different upgraded parts and accessories to address the needs of the driving public and meet regulations, especially in professional racing. Most of these add to the performance of the vehicle or the engine, which is the main producer of power. However, in your Ferrari, there is one component whose main feature is to protect one of the main engine components to optimize engine performance. This accessory is called the Ferrari harmonic balancer.
A harmonic balancer is a kind of damper that is also called as a crank pulley damper or a vibration damper. This damper is a device used in the crankshaft to reduce torsional vibration. It has two main elements, the mass element and the energy dissipating element. The energy dissipating element consists of a rubber, a clutch, and fluid. The mass element resists the acceleration of the vibration while the energy dissipating element absorbs it.
The torsional vibration that the Ferrari harmonic balancer in your engine controls is created due to the power transmitted to the front part of the crankshaft. When the cylinder fires, the front portion of the crankshaft takes the impact of this power, making it move ahead of the rear. When the power is then removed, it unwinds, causing the torsional vibration, and snaps back in an opposite direction. In certain engine speeds, this impact of power and the torsional vibration are in synch and results to resonance. This, in turn, leads to crankshaft failure.
The harmonic balancer is designed to prevent crankshaft failure, which will ultimately result to greater danger in the engine. However, many performance enthusiasts believe that its installation just reduces the working capacity of the engine. This is because of its mass that adds to engine burden. Nevertheless, its absence will also imperil the literal life of the engine. Just remember that performance should always be safe, and so the harmonic balancer still gives a lot of benefits compared to what many think are its disadvantages.
