This project aim is to increasing the efficiency of an internal
combustion engine.
Ceramic coatings have applications as thermal barriers to
improve the efficiency of the engines, by reducing energy losses.
Ceramic coatings have a significant effect in the reduction of wear
and abrasion failure in reciprocating engines.
The main aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of
ceramic coating on diesel engines effective efficiency and
emission test at different engine loads and speeds conditions.
Emission test and performance test’s will be conducted with 4-
stroke diesel engine with and without ceramic coating .
