Abstract

The piston and valve surfaces of diesel engine have been coated with Cr2O3, Cr2O3+50%Al2O3 and Cr2O3 + 75% Al2O3 ceramic powders with bond coat (NiCr) by atmosferic plasma spray (APS) method. The engine performance of the coated engine were compared with the standard engine values by using that the engines tests were applyed repeat for each specimen in an electrical dynamometer in full power 1400 rpm, 1700 rpm, 2000 rpm, 2300 rpm, 2600 rpm, 2900 rpm and 3200 rpm engine speeds. In the results; it has been seen that engine power increased from 7% to 29%, engine torque from 7% to 23%, and exhaust gas temperatures from 6% to 17%, thermal brake efficiencyfrom 2.8% to 12.7% while specific fuel consumption decreased of 2.8% to 11.5%.
