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.

parts of engine -3

HELLO FRIENDS, Previous article we have discuss parts of cylinder block, cylinder head and this article we have discuss crankcase and cylinder liner and piston introduction. So…..lets start,😊 3. Crankcase: Crankcase is attached to the bottom face of the cylinder block. Crankcase is base on the engine. It is supported the crankshaft and camshaft in suitable bearings and provided the arm for supporting the engine on the frame. The oil pan and the lower part of cylinder block together are called the crankcase. Sometimes you are thinking about oil pan, so I can explain this oil pan is bottom half of the crankcase is called oil pan show in figure. it is bolted or screwed to the lower flange of the main casting are usually made of pressed  steel and aluminum. In the crankcase cylinder block and upper half of the crankcase usually are cast as single integral unit. This casting is usually made of a ferrous alloy or semi-steel provide to stronger and ...

SIMPLE CARBURATOR

Hello friends, Show my previous articles for automobile engines details and this articles show on how supply fuel in engine? It’s  simplest form of carburetor form is show in figure . the basic construction of  the carburetor of the carburetor can be divide into the part of where the gasoline fuel and air are mixture and float chamber or the part where  constant amount of gasoline is always stored.   At the center of mixing chamber, there is part is called the vanturi where the diameter has been drawn  smaller , the main nozzle discharging the gasoline at normal engine speed is located at center of the vanturi. Below this at part is throttle valve is a disc shapes its adjusted serves to the amount of mixture. It’s linked at driver compartment to the accelerator pedal in the driver control the engine speed. The choke valve to adjusted the amount of air in the mixture.  The float chamber is comprise of bowl shape part cost integrated with the mixing fue...
