Abstract

The heavy duty diesel engine must have a large output for maintaining excellent mobility. In this study, a three-dimensional finite element model of a heavy-duty diesel engine was developed to conduct the stress analysis by using property of CGI. The compacted graphite iron (CGI) is a material currently under study for the engine demanded for high torque, durability, stiffness, and fatigue. The FE model of the heavy duty diesel engine section consisting of four half cylinders was selected. The heavy duty diesel engine section includes a cylinder block, a cylinder head, a gasket, a liner, a bearing cap, bearing and bolts. The loading conditions of engine are pre-fit load, assembly load, and gas load. A structural analysis on the result was performed in order to optimize on the cylinder block of the diesel engine.
