SYNOPSIS
The state-of-art thermal barrier coating (TBC) provides the potential for
higher thermal efficiency of the engine, with improved combustion and reduced
emission. One advantage of TBC is that ceramic is better than the conventional
materials. MgZrO3, CaZrO3, mullite and AlO3 –ZrO2 are some of the ceramic
materials used as TBC. A four stroke single cylinder diesel engine is selected
for carrying out the experiment. It is planned to use the TBC on the piston head
and study the analysis, performance and emission and characteristics of the
engine with and without TBC under various loading condition. As a part of it
the emission test will be conducted and characteristics were studied without
TBC, in future the remaining test will be conducted and the emission and
performance characteristics also compared with and without TBC.
