Abstract:

Objective: Support a research program investigating the use of commercial and developmental high-temperature alloys in a heavy-duty diesel piston application. Methods: Perform a Steady-State Thermal-Stress Analysis to predict the piston temperature profile1. Given experimental measurements of piston surface heat flux (p.3) and subsurface temperature (p.4) for microalloyed steel (MAS) piston, calibrate the under-crown heat transfer coefficients (p.5) in the model. 2. Given experimental surface heat flux and calibrated heat transfer coefficients from previous step, model the piston temperature profiles (p.7) when changing to conductivity of high-temperature commercial alloys A286 (UNS S66286), 422 (S42200), DH31-EX (Daido Steel), and H10 (T20810). Perform a fatigue analysis (not shown in this presentation).
