Design And Analysis Of Marine Engine Crankshaft Made Of Epoxy E Glass Using Fea

Abstract

Crankshaft is one of the component in an I.c engine which is converts the reciprocating motion of the piston to motion is rotary. Where as in this reciprocating compressor .it converts to the rotary motion. In order to do the conversion between the two motions, the crank shaft has “crank throws” or “crankpins” additional bearing on surfaces whose axis is offset from that the crank, to which “big ends “of the connecting rods from each cylinder attach.
