3 Introduction Piston Cooling Diesel Engines Specific Power Rating(SPR) increases by high pressure fuel injection and higher boosted turbo-charging. Increased SPR is limited thermal durability of Head, Liner(Bore), Exhaust Manifold & Piston due to increased thermal and mechanical loads. Engine Emission also depends on contradicting thermal requirements. HC gets reduced with higher Temperature while NOx gets higher. For Pistons, Increased Temperature would result in degradation of material properties particularly of aluminium ones and deterioration of lubricant quality. Lubricant coking Excessive Wear or Scuff Thermal Crack on Piston Carbon and debris deposition Ring sticking and micro welding It is necessary to accurately guess the piston temperatures to understand and consider the effect on both durability, lubrication and emissions.

4 Problem Definition Piston Cooling Lubricating oil serves as a secondary cooling medium for pistons to limit the temperature. Single Jet Multi Jet Oil is directed Under the Piston (Crown) To the Piston gallery Both. Piston Cooling Gallery Is closer to critical heat sources, Has higher heat transfer area, Has longer heat transfer duration. Cocktail Shaker Effect(CSE) enhances heat transfer inside the gallery and reduces the temperatures up to 300 C. Unconstrained movement of oil should be modelled to see CSE on Piston Temperature.
