STRUCTURAL, THERMAL AND THERMO-MECHANICAL ANALYSIS OF FOUR STROKE PETROL ENGINE PISTON USING CAE TOOLS

Abstract

As we are known numerous reciprocating parts is contained in IC Engine which are responsible for giving the motion. The abnormal piston working is given poor performance in comparison of other parts. The main intention of this research is to investigate and analyse the stress distribution of automobile piston at definite engine Condition. In this paper pressure (Mechanical), thermal (Heat) and thermo-mechanical analysis is accomplished by help of CAE Tool. The constraint used for the analysis is pressure of operating gas, temperature and material properties of piston. In this research piston are designed for a single cylinder four stroke petrol engine using CATIA V5R20 and analysis is performed by ANSYS 14. Two different material are induced in this investigation. First one is Aluminium alloy and second is Cast Iron. In this end of the Results are shown and a comparison is made to find the most suited material for splendour automobile vehicle piston by various CAE analyses.
