Abstract :

 The use of a metal based coating on the piston crown and its effect on heat transfer were studied in an SI engine. The piston crown is the top surface closest to the cylinder head of the piston which is subjected to tremendous pressure forces and heat during normal engine operation. The main objective of this paper is to analyze numerically a heat transfer in the copper coated (CCE) and conventional (CE) piston of four stroke spark ignition engine which is determined mainly as a function of temperature from crown to skirt. Piston was modeled using solid works, boundary conditions were calculated analytically from experiment and a study state thermal analysis was performed using ANSYS Workbench. Copper coated piston showed better heat transfer and structural stability than piston without coating.
