Analysis and Comparison of Carbon Graphite Piston over Cast Iron Piston of Four Stroke 100cc bike (Hero Splendor) engine.

Abstract

This paper describes the stress , strain, displacement and thermal stresses of cast iron 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 cast iron piston and carbon graphite piston using specifications of four stroke 100cc hero bike engine. The results predict the maximum stress and critical region on cast iron piston and carbon graphite piston using FEA. It is important to locate the critical area of concentrated stress for appropriate modifications. The 3D model of the pistons   drawn by using Solidworks (Feature module) and   Simulation module was used to mesh the pistons and Static analysis (FEA)
