Development of Aluminium Based Silicon Carbide Particulate Metal Matrix Composite for Cylinder Liner
Abstract: Cylinder liner is used in engine block to give a wear protective surface for piston and piston rings. Friction accounts for a loss of over 30% of the total vehicle power. Over half of that power loss can be attributed to the frictional loss between piston rings and cylinder bores. The best approach for improving power train efficiency is to reduce friction loss and the way for reducing the rolling …
