Parts of engine -4

HELLO FRIENDS,

Previous article we have discuss parts of engine crankcase, cylinder liner and piston introduction. In this article we have discuss material  of  piston and piston  clearance.

So…..lets start,😊

Material  for piston :

The material used for piston is mainly aluminium alloy. Aluminium piston can be either cast or forged. Cast iron is also used for piston. Yearly  cast iron was almost universal  material for piston because it's excellent  wearing qualities, co-efficient of expansion and general  suitability in manufacture. Due to reduce of weight of metal is necessary, light metal is lost. Aluminium is inferior to cast iron in strength and wearing qualities, and it's greater  co-efficient of expansion greater clearance in the cylinder to avoid the risk  of seizures.
The thermal heat conductivity of aluminium  is about three times that of cast iron and this combined  with greater thickness necessary for strength, enable an aluminium alloy piston to run at much lower  temperature than a cast iron.

Piston clearance :

Piston are usually small in diameter then the bore of the cylinder. The space  between the cylinder and cylinder wall is called  the piston clearance.

Reason of piston  clearance:

1. Space for a film of lubricant between cylinder wall and piston to reduce friction

2. Very high operating temperature, piston and cylinder block expand. The cylinder is cooled better than the piston, hence sufficient clearance for piston to expand, failing which the piston seizures will result.

3. If there is no clearance between cylinder wall and piston, it will be impossible for the piston to reciprocate in the cylinder.

Piston clearance depands upon the size of the cylinder bore and the metal used in the piston. Generally 0.025mm to 0.100mm. This clearance is filled with oil so that the piston and rings move on films of oils. Proper  clearance  should  be maintained between  piston and cylinder wall. If the clearance is too small, then  will be loss of power from excessive friction,were and possible seizure of  the cylinder. If clearance is too much, then piston slap will result. Piston slap means sudden  tilting of the cylinder as the piston down  on the  power stroke. The cylinder  to other sufficient  force to produce a distinct noise.


in piston cylinder some details are show on the.... next aritical never miss....
Thank you🤗

We will describe step by step are deails on our website.I hope completely understand what is types  automobile and work of automobile can you more details are understand so you are subscribed my website and any queries regarding of automobile writing on comments box and share link I will give very fast reply and thank you for read this article.

Information of automobile

Hello friends, Welcome to ER.AUTOTECHWITHAB. Some people are questions of related topics what is automobile? How to used on early life in automobile? Automobile is used of transportation like bikes, scooters, motorcycle, cars, buses, trucks, airplanes, ships, boat, locomotive,other Vehicle are around of the world. Automobile are helpful of people of one place to other places travel and transportation of the misalliance. Automobile  is the a branch of engineering in which we study of automobile or  some people called automotive so nothing more understand there are same meaning. Mobile or motive means which can move or automobile and automotive means one which it's self move.for example, a railway cannot move it's self but if  applied some external force. Same as it's we can see trolley there are cannot move  itself if applied some external force. Type of automobile : 1. Purpose :      A) Passenger vehicles - car, jeep,bu...

Parts of Engine -2

Hello friends, Previous article we have discussed in cylinder block. In cylinder block are the round mirror cylinder surface by accurate grinding and honing process and this article we have discussed in cylinder head. so...let's start 🤔 2. Cylinder head:           The top of the cylinder is covered by separate cast piece know as the cylinder. the cylinder head is bolted to the top of the cylinder block. it contains combination chamber. In cylinder head are mounted on spark plug and sometimes valves are mounted in it and passages for flow of cooling water. The cylinder head is usually made by gray cast iron or aluminium alloy. Aluminium has the advantage of lightness in weight and high heat conductivity. It is cast separately from the cylinder block, it may be removed for cleaning carbon and grinding valve. A flat piece of gaskets is placed between the cylinder head and cylinder block. Racing car engine, a separate head is not use. But single piece ...
