    This document discusses a thermal analysis of pistons made of cast iron, cast alloy steel, and carbon graphite for a 100cc 4-stroke bike engine using finite element analysis (FEA). The analysis applies a temperature of 100°C to the top of the piston and predicts the resultant temperature gradient. It describes the 3D modeling, meshing, materials properties, and results of the FEA thermal analysis for each piston material. The analysis found that the cast alloy steel piston had the highest maximum temperature gradient while the carbon graphite piston performed best with lighter weight and excellent thermal conductivity.

    I. INTRODUCTION
    Piston is a cylindrical member which is placed inside cylinder and on the combustion gases exerts pressure. It is
    made up of cast iron or aluminum alloy. In an engine, its purpose is to transfer force from expanding gas in the
    cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod and/or connecting rod. It is the moving component that is contained
    by a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. It absorbs the side thrust resulting from obliquity of the
    connecting rod. It also dissipates the large amount of heat generated by the combustion gases form the
    combustion chamber to the cylinder wall. In some engines, the piston also acts as a valve by covering and
    uncovering ports in the cylinder wall.

    II. FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS (FEA)


    FEA is a computerized method for predicting how a product reacts to real-world forces, vibration, heat, fluid
    flow and other physical effects. Finite element analysis shows whether a product will break, wear out or work
    the way it was designed. It is an advanced engineering tool that is used in design and to augment/replace
    experimental testing.

    III. METHODOLOGY OF PROPOSED WORK

    XII. STUDY RESULTS

    XIII. CONCLUSION
    In the conclusion, according to above results of thermal analysis on various materials of piston applied
    temperature of 100°C on the top of piston, the maximum GRADN value found of cast alloy steel is more as
    compared to cast iron and carbon graphite. In fact there is a least difference of maximum value of result found
    between cast iron and graphite.

    Moreover, cast iron is lighter in weight in the comparison of cast alloy steel. But according to volumetric
    properties, Carbon Graphite material is much lighter than cast iron and cast alloy steel.

    Furthermore, according to material properties cast iron has low Thermal expansion coefficientas compared to
    carbon graphite and cast alloy steel but according to properties, there is slightly difference between c-graphite
    and cast iron.

    On the other hand, cast iron has good thermal conductivity as compared to cast alloy steel. But the carbon
    graphite has excellent thermal conductivity as compared to cast iron and cast alloy steel. There is so much
    difference.

    At last, according to the above study, Carbon Graphite piston is much better as compared to cast iron and cast
    alloy steel for IC engine especially due to light weight and excellent thermal conductivity, in fact carbon shows
    an excellent resistance to thermal shocks
