Abstract

In this paper we make a nonlinear analysis of a piston head from a spark ignition engine in different working condition. The heat transfer in the combustion chamber of an internal gasoline engine is determined mainly as a function of the level of temperature of the parts and combustion temperature. As initial condition we consider a temperature on the head piston of 3300C and a total pressure of 5 MPa. The simulation gives us information about the heat transfer in the piston head and the solicitation of the piston materials.
