Thermal and Structural Analysis of SI Engine Piston
Thermal and Structural Analysis of SI Engine Piston
Temperature Variation.
Heat Flux
For Structural Analysis
Total Deformation
Equivalent Elastic Stress
Equivalent Elastic Strain
Conclusion :
Modeling and analysis of piston is done
Modeling of piston is done in NX CAD design software by using various commands
The CAD part file is converted into IGS file and imported to ansys workbench.
First Static structural analysis is carried out on piston at 13.65MPa pressure with structural steel in ansys
workbench.
Total Deformation, Equivalent elastic strain and stresss, Temperature and Heat Flux are analysed with
ANSYS 16.2.
Then steady state thermal analysis is carried out at maximum temperature 200 deg and minimum
temperature 188 deg for the above three various materials.
The temperature distribution of piston is very important to check the effect of temperature is maximum
on which part of piston. After the analysis of temperature distribution the result comes out that the
maximum temperature is on the piston head and the minimum temperature is on the piston skirt.
