Abstract

The present work describes the comparative study made by the finite element analysis (FEA) of pistons of three different materials. In addition, it attempts to find out whether or not, the material used by the supercar piston can be used in motorcycles. The simulation parameters are piston pressure, the temperature of the piston and properties of the material. For studying these pistons, the specifications taken into consideration belong to a four-stroke Bajaj Pulsar 220 cc single-cylinder motor. The analysis of two aluminium alloys and a titanium alloy pyramid is illustrated in this project. A 3D model of the piston is made in CAD Software named SOLIDWORKS. The use of ANSYS Software is made for static structural and thermal stress analyses. Results of the present work foresee the critical area of the FEA pistons and maximum stress. On the basis of results, the optimum or better material is chosen for the piston.
