Abstract

The Engines Cylinder is one of the important parts of an automobile component, which is subjected to high-temperature variations and thermal stresses. To cool the cylinder, fins are provided on the surface of the cylinder to increase the rate of heat transfer. An air-cooled motorcycle engine releases the heat to the atmosphere through the mode of forced convection, fins are provided on the outer surface of the cylinder block of the engine. The fins allow the cooling wind over its surface and transfer heat from the fins surface to the air. The main aim of the project is to analyze the thermal properties like Directional heat flux, total heat flux, the steady-state thermal analysis used to determine temperature distribution. To improve the rate of heat transfer thermal analysis of designs providing slots, reducing the fin thickness and increasing no. of fins. The fins model prepared in SOLIDWORKS2020SP0 and doing the thermal analysis of cylinder block with fins for different materials by using ANSYS2021R1and to find out the best material that gives the better heat transfer rate..
