Static and Structural Analysis of Camshaft

Abstract

Camshaft is all about opening and closing of valves in a piston engine. In the combustion chamber of a piston engine we have an intake stroke, compression stroke, expansion stroke and an exhaust stroke. In the intake stroke and exhaust stroke we have the valves that open that take the air in intake stroke and out in the exhaust stroke and the thing that is lifting the valves to make it happen is the camshaft. In the present work, we are going to do analysis on the camshaft by applying different forces (due to valves) on the cams which are mounted on the shaft and observe total deformation, equivalent elastic strain and equivalent stress on different materials of camshaft by using Solidworks and Ansys softwares. The materials taken are Structural steel and Stainless steel.
