Climate change is exacerbated by vehicle emissions. Furthermore, pollution contributes to respiratory and cardiopulmonary diseases, as well lung cancer. This requires a drastic reduction in global greenhouse gas emissions for the automobile industry. To address this issue, researchers are required reduce friction, which one of most important aspects improving efficiency internal combustion engi...

Due to the complex geometry and thermos-mechanical loading, cylinder heads are the most challenging parts among all parts engines. They must endure cyclic thermal and mechanical loading throughout their lifetime. Cast aluminum alloys are normally quenched after solution treatment process to improve aging responses. Rapid quenching can lead to high residual stress. Residual stress is one of the ...

This study aims to find the best material for manifold and improve airflow in UniMAP Automotive Racing Team (uniART) exhaust manifold. The is a part of system that collects delivers gases from cylinder head outlet. manifold’s design significant engine performance. current new designs were modelled using SOLIDWORKS software. Stainless steel, cast iron mild steel chosen as materials studied by co...

Among the various causes of free chlorine consumption in drinking water distribution networks, the internal corrosion of pipes has not been so far seriously considered. This work focused on the corrosion study of cast iron, as a representative material of those networks, in non-chlorinated and chlorinated waters, by both electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and classical photographic observat...

Compacted graphite cast iron is a material that again comes forward of the interest of designers and foundries acquiring or improving manufacture of castings from that material. From many publications let us quote three of them from last year 1, 2, 3 . According to the European standard ISO 16 112 this material is called „compacted (vermicular) graphite cast iron“ (the abbreviation CGI that wil...
