Analysis and Comparison of Carbon Graphite Piston over Aluminum Alloy 4032 Piston of Four Stroke 100cc bike (Hero Splendor) engine.

Abstract

This paper describes the stress distribution, displacement and thermal stresses of aluminum alloy piston and carbon graphite piston by using finite element Analysis (FEA) .The parameters used for the simulation are operating gas pressure, temperature and material properties of pistons. The specifications used for the study of these pistons belong to four stroke 100cc hero bike engine. This paper illustrates the procedure for analytical design of aluminum alloy piston and carbon graphite piston using specifications of four stroke 100cc hero bike engine. The results predict the maximum stress and critical region on aluminum alloy piston and carbon graphite piston using FEA. It is important to locate the critical area of concentrated stress for appropriate modifications. The CAD model of the pistons was drawn by using Solidworks (Feature module) and  Simulation module was used to mesh the pistons, Static and couple field analysis.
