Item Study on Performance Characteristics of Single Cylinder 4 - Stroke Diesel Engine Composite Piston(2019-07-05T11:45:14Z) Vineeth, M.R; M. P. Aldo, Jason; Lohit, GThe internal combustion engine is facing a severe confront to progress automobile energy effectiveness. In the internal combustion engine most of the heat generated during combustion process is absorbed by the piston by the direct heat loss. Thus, this in turn reduces the indicated power and in turns the performance of internal combustion engine. In this study, the performance of the diesel engine will be studied with and without composite material on the piston crown. The experimentation will be carried out on four stroke single cylinder diesel engine for different load. There was an enhancement in thermal efficiency with reduced specific fuel consumption. Nowadays the earth is running short of fossil fuels. Loss of efficiency in engines are to curbed away by new alternative technologies. Developments in the mechanical industries are done nowadays to increase efficiencies of internal combustion engines. The main barrier we undergo nowadays is the inflation of fossil fuels rates are rising day by day with increased pollution in the atmosphere. Reduction of piston temperatures helps in increasing the efficiency upto an extent. As the efficiency increases throughout combustion of fuel will take place in the present internal combustion engines. Many emission standards are being followed seriously by every governments. Use of catalytic converters are being mandatorily fitted in all four stroke engines to reduce emissions from vehicles.
