Design and Optimization of IC Engine Crankshaft
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 30, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
The globalization and economic reforms have changed the face and pace of world economy in the last two decades. The main thrust is on product quality, faster design and development and finally cheaper product.At the same time, for optimal use of these technologies, one has to converge them in a better way. To sustain in the competitive market, industries have to update their knowledge, acquire new skills to offer world-class products. Design and analysis of complex components has reached new heights with the application of Finite Element Method.Automobile Industry has benefited a lot with the development of CAD/CAM technologies, from engine performance to aesthetic appeal. The lead time to manufacture automobiles has drastically reduced in the recent times, because of advancements in Geometric modeling and Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM).Design of Internal Combustion (IC) Engine parts plays a crucial role in improving the functioning of an automobile. Design and modifications of all the important components are carried out to increase the performance and thereby efficiency. Many redesign concepts have been emerged for cylinder head, connecting rod,crankshaft, piston, carburetor, Fuel injection pump and other engine components. specially redesign of Crankshaft is carried out to get enough strength to sustain the gas pressure and to have the better thermal stability. Also new researches are going on to select an alternate material to cope up with the existing load cases, to get higher compression ratio, to reduce the inertia forces to increase the speed of the vehicle (by reducing the weight of the reciprocating masses).
