Performance Evaluation of Automobile Crankshaft
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
The crankshaft is the main component of IC engine. So the design & analysis is carried out for important aspects to get high power transmission & efficiency. Selection of suitable material plays a important role while designing any mechanical component. In order to absorb the shocks and fatigue, the material should have high strength & capacity, and have less wear tendency. The crankshaft should have high torque transmitting capacity. The subject was picked on account of expanding enthusiasm for higher payloads, lower weight, higher efficiency and shorter load cycles in crankshaft. The static structural and fatigue analysis of four cylinder engine crank shaft is carried out in this project work. The objective includes modelling and analysis of crankshaft, inorder to identify the effect of stresses on crankshaft and fatigue life of the materials to compare different materials and to deliver possible solution. Results acquire from the analysis are used in optimization of the crankshaft. Results obtained shows that mild steel is better material to be considered with respect to stress and fatigue life as per analysis.
