FEM Analysis of Connecting Rod of different materials using ANSYS

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Techniques - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 3

Abstract

Connecting Rods are practically generally used in all varieties of automobile engines. Acting as an intermediate link between the piston and the crankshaft of an engine. It is responsible for transmission of the up and down motion of the piston to the crankshaft of the engine, by converting the reciprocating motion of the piston to the rotary motion of crankshaft. Thus, this study aims to carry out for the load, strain and stress analysis of the crank end of the connecting rod of different materials. Based on which the High Strength Carbon Fiber connecting rod will be compared with connecting rod made up of Stainless Steel and Aluminum Alloy. The results can be used for optimization for weight reduction and for design modification of the connecting rod. Pro-E software is used for modeling and analyses are carried out in ANSYS software. The results archived can also help us identify the spot or section where chances of failure are high due to stress induced. Also the results obtained can be used to modify the existing designs so that better performance and longer life cycle can be archived.
