Experimental Investigation of Single Cylinder Four Stroke Diesel Engine Using Mahua Oil Biodiesel
Abstract: With increase in population and subsequent use of automobiles, the present day scenario has compelled us to face dual problems of fossil fuel depletion and environmental degradation simultaneously. To overcome this, we must search for a better renewable fuel. Since, biodiesel stands as a renewable and sustainable alternative fuel, several studies are carried out to study its effects on engine performance as well as exhaust gas emissions. The studies proved …

Effect of Geometry, Material and Blank Holder Force on Formability of BIW parts
Abstract: The major constituent of any car body consists of about 400 sheet metal stamped parts. Geometry and material of these parts is not uniform. In order to design these parts for any car, it is essential to know how these parts are manufactured. During our study of the manufacturing processes of these parts, we found that the part designs are repeatedly sent back to the body design team for change …

Comparison of Finite Element Analysis with An Experimental Validation on Transmission Loss Measurement for Acoustic Muffler
Abstract: Noise from an automotive application is the major source of noise pollution. Here the noise from muffler plays a vital role. So noise reduction on muffler is generally predicted by Transmission Loss and Insertion Loss. Single expansion chamber is generally used as silencing elements in intake and exhaust systems. The main aim of this paper is to use of FEA as well Experimental Method for Muffler’s Transmission Loss Measurement. FEA …

Automotive Gearbox Design Based on Reliability
Abstract: A company’s reputation is very closely attached to the reliability of its products. The more reliable a product is, the more likely the company is to have a good reputation. A reliable product may not drastically affect customer satisfaction in a positive manner. However, an unreliable product will definitely attract customer dissatisfaction; thus, high reliability is a quite essential requirement for customer satisfaction. Design for reliability refers to the ability …
