Numerical investigation of thermomechanical behavior of Yttrium barium zirconate-coated aluminum alloy piston in an internal combustion engine

Three-Dimensional Design and Prediction of Temperature Distribution of a Partially Ceramic Coated Piston Used in Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition Engine

“…Using FEA, the authors compare the effectiveness of pistons made from structural steel and graphite. Graphite, which has superior thermal behavior and is lighter, is the optimum material for pistons, according to their research [5]. The carbon graphite piston was found to be the most efficient in terms of heat transmission.…”
