This project focus on the design and analysis of dual fuel stir casting machine for aluminium hybrid to explore the materials for automotive and aerospace applications using stir casting technique. The Stir Casting furnace can be operated using fuels like LPG, Diesel, Oil and can be electrical also. This project designed and analyzed for dual fuel furnace which operates on LPG and Diesel, since the solenoid coils will get damaged during combustion by other fuels and the oil may not be effective for quick firing and also it will make a sudden combustion inside the small chamber i.e. sudden explosion. The main objective is to design and analyse a dual fuel stir casting machine to improve uniform stirring reinforcements in the base metal aluminium. The design is carried out in Solid Works the thermal analysis of stir casting furnace is carried out by ANSYS. The crucible and the stirrer are exposed to the heating zone hence they are subjected to various thermal analysis. Steady state thermal analysis and static structural analysis is carried out on the stirrer rod and crucible. The melting temperature of aluminium is 660℃ hence the stirrer rod and the crucible are tested for temperature above the melting point of aluminium. The materials are chosen based on the melting temperature.
