A Literature Review On The Performance Analysis of 4 Stroke Diesel Engines With Ceramic Coating Material-36993
Abstract : Today’s the use of diesel fuel is increase in the world. People do not use diesel only for transportation but also
for agriculture and as we know that the lots of heat loss without any use of it. The efficiency of IC Engine is reduced and
fuel consumption is increased. The Lots of research works are carried out to increase the efficien cy of IC Engine and
reduce fuel consumption such as Laser Surface Textured (LST) method, Thermal Barrier Coating (TBC) method. Piston
is the one of the main part of IC engine. The function of piston is transfer the pressure to the crank through the
onnecting rod. Generally piston is made by cast iron and aluminum alloy. As we know that by using of ceramic material
coating on piston, the performance of IC Engine can be increased.

alloy piston used in a diesel engine” Internati onal Journal of Thermal Sciences , Volume 77, March 2014
The goal of this paper is to determine both temperature and thermal stress distributions in a plasma -sprayed magnesia-
stabilized zirconia coating on an alu minu m piston crown to imp rove the performance of a diesel engine. Effects of the
coating thickness on temperature and thermal stress distributions are investigated, including comparisons with results
fro m an uncoated piston by means of the finite element method. Temperature and thermal stress analyses are performed
for various coating thicknesses from 0.2 to 1.6 mm excluding the bond coat layer. Temperature at the coated surface is
significantly higher than that of the uncoated piston. It is observed that the coating surface temperature increases with
coating thickness by decreasing rate. Increase in the maximu m temperature according to the uncoated piston is 64.3% for
1.0 mm thick coating. The higher combustion chamber temperature provided by means of coating results in the better
thermal efficiency of the engine

In this paper it is observed that the YPSZ(Yttria Part ially Stabilized Zirconia )/NiCrA l coated CNGDI piston crown
experienced the least heat fluxes than the uncoated piston crowns and the coated CamPro piston crown, giving extra
protection during combustion operation.

It is observed that the coating surface temperature increase with increasing the thickness in a decreasing rate. Surface
temperature of the piston with 0.4 mm coating thickness was increased up to 82 °C. The normal stress on the coated
surface decreases with coating thickness, up to approximately 1 mm for wh ich the value of stress is the minimu m.
However, it rises when coating thickness exceeds 1 mm. As for bond coat surface, increasing coating thickness, the
normal stress decreases steadily and the maximu m shear stress rises in a decreasing rat e. The optimu m coating thickness
was found to be near 1 mm under the given conditions.

investigation: Experiments, modeling and future challenges” Engineering Failure Analysis Volume 28, March

This paper presents, the results suggest that high operating temperatures and significant reduction in thin film lubricat ion
clearances accelerate the seizure failures. Further tests were conducted with coated piston to mit igate the high
temperature effects. Future directions and challenges in terms modeling such complicated physics have been discussed.
The authors believe that there exists a theoretical gap in modeling the seizure physics and hence, advanced theories
should be developed to enhance the understanding of this complex seizure mechanism.

2011
This paper shows that the Effect of partially thermal barrier coating on piston temperature distribution and cold start HC
emissions of a spark ignition (SI) engine are investigated numerically and experimentally. A Thermal analysis was
performed for both standard and coated pistons by using a commercial code, namely ANSYS. The engine tests were
conducted on a single cylinder, water cooled SI engine for both standard and coated cases. Analysis results show that the
surface temperature of the coated piston part was increased up to 100 °C, wh ich leads to an increase in air–fuel mixture
temperature in the crevice and wall quenching regions. Thus, cold start HC emissions considerably decrease compared to
the standard engine without any degradation in engine performance. Maximu m decrease in HC emissions was 43.2%
compared to the standard engine.

The study of this paper, it is find that firstly thermal analyses are investigated on a conventional (uncoated) diesel piston ,
made of alu minum silicon alloy and steel. Secondly, thermal analyses are performed on pistons , coated with MgO–ZrO2
material by means of using a co mmercial code, namely ANSYS. Finally, the results of four d ifferent pistons are
compared with each other. The effects of coatings on the thermal behaviors of the pistons are investigated. It has been
shown that the maximu m surface temperature o f the coated piston with material wh ich has low thermal conductivity is
improved appro ximately 48% for the AlSi alloy and 35% for the steel.
The zirconia-based ceramic coatings are used as thermal barrier coatings owing to their low conductivity and their
relatively high coefficients of thermal expansion, which reduce the detrimental interfacial stresses. Material properties of
the MgZrO3, NiCrA l and piston material made of AlSi alloy. Piston is coated with a 350 μm thickness of MgZrO3 over a
150 μm thickness of NiCrA l bond coat (Fig. 1).

In this study, the surface of a piston in a d iesel engine was coated with mo lybdenum nitride (Mo N) by using the arc PVD
method, and its surface behavior was subsequently analyzed. Analyses of micro hardness, SEM, X -ray and surface
roughness were carried out in order to examine surface characteristics of pistons. It is found that the hardness of coated
piston is 2000 ± 400 HV wh ile hardness uncoated piston 123 HV. The results show less deformation and fewer scratches
due to wear on the MoN-coated piston as compared to uncoated one.

Functionally graded coatings are coating systems used to increase performances of high temperature components in
diesel engines. These coatings consist of a transition from the metallic bond layer to cermet and fro m cermet to the
ceramic layer. In this study, thermal behavior of functional graded coatings on AlSi and steel piston materials was
investigated by means of using a commercial code, namely ANSYS. Thermal analyses were employed to deposit
metallic, cermet and ceramic powders such as NiCrAl, NiCrA l + MgZrO3 and MgZrO3 on the substrate. The numerical
results of AlSi and steel pistons are compared with each other. It was sho wn that the maximu m surface temperature of
the functional graded coating AlSi alloy and steel pistons was increased by 28% and 17%, respectively.

In this paper, the isothermic d istribution in the piston body and heat flow rates to cooling water and air below the piston
at four different engine loads are depicted for cases both with and without insulation coating. The results indicate a 6%
reduction in heat loss through the piston with the use of an insulatio n coating on the cylinder wall.

Finally, the same engine out parameters were obtained and compared with those of uncoated engine parameters in order
to find out how this modificat ion would change the combustion, performance and emission parameters. Results sh owed
that the modification of the engine with coating process resulted in better performance, especially in considerably lower
brake specific fuel consumption (Bsfc) values. Besides, emissions of the engine were lowered both through coating
process and biodiesel usage excluding the nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission. In addition, the results of the coated engine
are better than the uncoated one in terms of cy linder gas pressure, heat release rate (HRR) and heat release (HR).

The combustion chamber surfaces (cylinder head, valves and piston crown faces were coated with ceramic materials.
Ceramic layers were made of CaZrO3 and MgZrO3, by using plasma-coating method onto the base of the NiCrAl bond
coat. The ceramic-coated research engine was tested at the same conditions as the standard (without coating) engine. The
results showed a reduction in heat loss to the coolant and an increase in effective efficiency.

Ceramic coatings provide good thermal barrier p roperties for designers. In the design of adiabatic engines, reducing in -
cylinder heat rejection requires very special thermal barrier coatings on the engine combustion chamber. Part ially,
thermal barrier coating (TBC) on the top surface of the piston in the annulus form is considered as a solution for
unburned HC emission produced by incomplete combustion with respect to crevice volume after SI engines start (the
three-way catalytic converter is not yet activated in the period of first 120 s). Because TBC on the top piston surface
decreases the thermal conductivity and increases the unburned charge oxidation by increasing the temperature in the
flame quenching area near the entrance of the crevice volume between the piston and liner during the compression and
the early part of the expansion strokes.
In this study, a steady-state thermal analysis was performed to evaluate the temperature gradients in the standard and two
different partially stabilized ceramic coated pistons by using Abaqus finite element (FE) software. A sharp increase in the
temperature of the coated area of the piston was observed as a result of FE simu lations. It is concluded that the annulus
Y-PSZ coating may contribute better, as compared to Mg -PSZ, to decrease the cold start and steady state HC emissions
without auto ignition, since the temperature in the area sh ows a local sharp increase.

The results showed that 1–8% reduction in brake specific fuel consumption could be achieved by the combined effect of
the thermal barrier coating (TBC) and injection timing.

The main objective of this paper is to study about ceramic materials. Ceramics, in contrast to metals, are often more
resistance to oxidation, corrosion and wear, as well as being better thermal insulators. Except yttria stabilized zirconia,
other materials such as lanthanum zirconate and rare earth o xides are also pro mising materials for thermal barrier
coatings.

It is known that the efficiency of internal co mbustion diesel engines changes %38-42. It is about %60 of the fuel energy
dismissed from co mbustion chamber. To save energy, combustion chamber component are coated with low thermal
conduction materials. In this paper, give an eye to thermal barrier coating and ceramic materials which are used for
making low heat released engines.

It is well known fact that about 30% of the energy supplied is lost through the coolant and the 30% is wasted through
friction and other losses, thus leaving only 30% of energy utilizat ion for useful p urposes. There have been numerous
research papers in recent years describing the theoretical benefits obtained from the use of ceramic co mponents in
reciprocating engines, but that describes practical results is very limited.
Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBC) in internal co mbustion engine have advantages such as imp roved thermal efficiency and
combustion, reduction in weight by eliminating cooling systems, etc. however, practical problems are faced in
implementing these coatings in internal combustion engines. The problem presently faced in implementing of TBC as
engine cylinder is thermal mis match which mainly occurs due to improper adhesion and difference in thermal expansion
coefficient between bond coat and cylinder materials.TBC must also withstand wear an d tear. The disadvantage of the
TBC method is that NOx emission is increased.

The depletion of supply of fossil fuels and their increased cost has driven the attention towards energy security. The
energy security can be partially achieved by imp roving the efficiency of en ergy producing equipment’s. Diesel fuels can
be used more efficiently in lo w heat rejection engines (LHR), in which the temperature of combustion chamber is
increased by creating thin layer of ceramics, a thermal barrier. Also the use of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) to increase
the combustion temperature in diesel engines has been pursued for over 20 years. Increased combustion temperature can
increase the efficiency of the engine, decrease the CO and unburnt Hydrocarbons (UBHC). TBCs have not yet met w ith
wide success in diesel engine applications. To reach the desirable temperature of 850-900°C in the combustion chamber
fro m the current temperature of 350-400°C, a coating with a thickness of order 1mm is required.
Objecti ve of literature review paper
The objectives of literature review paper are:
Increase the thermal efficiency
Increase the mechanical efficiency
