Static, Modal Thermal Analysis of Engine Block

Abstract

The cylinder block is a combine structure containing various cylinders of reciprocating engine and most of their compassing structure. The pistons are reciprocating inside the cylinder of engine block. Generally, cylinder block forms a basic framework of engine. Its houses of engine cylinder which serves as bearing and guided for the piston reciprocating in them. The cylinder block forms the basic framework of the engine, it houses the engine cylinders, which serve as bearings and guides for the pistons reciprocating in them. The analysis of the engine block is to be carried out to predict its behavior under static and dynamic loading. The cylinder block has to withstand the stresses and deformations due to loads acting on it. The solid model of the block is generated in CATIA V5 R21. The model is imported to ANSYS through IGES format. The quality mesh is prepared in ANSYS for converged solution and the solver set as ANSYS in which loads and boundary conditions are applied for analysis. By using different materials Aluminium, Grey cast iron. The static analysis is performed to predict the
