A FEM Investigation for IC engine Cylinder Block by Varying Thicknesses of Water Jacket (6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm) Using Ansys.” mainly focuses on the modeling and FEA analysis of IC engine cylinder head to reduce Nodal Temperature and to examine Thermal Flux, Vector Plot. The cylinder block is cast from gray iron or iron alloyed with other metals such as nickel, chromium, or molybdenum. Some lightweight engine blocks are made from aluminium. Cylinders are machined by grinding or boring to give them the desired true inner surface. In this research the results of experiments made by using ANSYS software which has been suitably employed to assess the behavior of IC Engine Block.
