Abstract
10Aug 2017 DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF COMPOSITE PISTON. Raghunandan D , Gaddam Ramcharan and Dinesh Kumar. Saveetha School of Engineering, Chennai, India.
Highlights
The piston is made of aluminium alloy to make it less weight and thermal conductivity
Large temperature difference is created between piston crown and cooling galleries and it produces thermal stress in engine piston
Characteristics of Composite Material:Getting the required level of sturdiness is conceivable by utilizing engine components made of materials with essentially incremental resistance to mechanical and thermal load
Summary
The aluminium alloy piston has less strength and high coefficient of thermal expansion, making it not suitable for high temperature experience. Carbon- carbon composite was found to be better than Aluminium alloy in terms of thermal conductivity, thermal expansion and very minimal wear, high resistance, strength to weight ratio, high temperature performance.
