Abstract
The workings of an engine rely on the piston rod and/or connecting rod to transmit the force of the expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft. Because of its critical role in engines, the piston is subject to inertial stresses and cyclic gas pressure, which may lead to fatigue damage in the form of side wear, fractures in the piston head or crown, and other issues. According to the research, the top of the piston experiences the highest level of stress, which is a major contributor to fatigue failure. This study uses finite element analysis to illustrate the stress distribution on an internal combustion engine's piston. It is the CAD and CAE programs that carry out the FEA. Examining and analyzing the distribution of thermal and mechanical stresses on the piston under real-world engine conditions during combustion is the primary focus. Predicting the component's critical area and greater stress using finite element analysis is also detailed in the paper. Created a structural model of a piston using CATIA software. We ran simulations and stress analyses with the help of ANSYS V14.5.
