Comparative Study of SAE 1141 Carbon Steel, T651-7075 Aluminum Alloy & 4340 Billet Steel Material for Connecting Rod using ANSYS 16
Journal Title: International Journal of Mechanical and Production Engineering Research and Development (IJMPERD ) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
A connecting rod is a link which derives the rotary motion from the reciprocating motion of piston. Many materials are used for connecting rod. Every material has its own advantages and disadvantages, and are used depending upon the engine requirement, purpose of the engine and other factors that matter. In this paper, a connecting rod with three different materials viz. SAE 1141 Carbon Steel, T651-7075 Aluminum Alloy & 4340 Billet Steel, have been designed using CATIA V5 R20 and analyzed using ANSYS 16. Deformation, equivalent stress and equivalent strain of the connecting rod for all the three materials were compared to the same loads.
