The exhaust manifold of an IC engine plays a key role in effective functioning of the engine exhaust system. The burnt, hot exhaust gases at higher temperatures from the engine flows through the exhaust manifold to the catalytic converter. Due to the flow of hot exhaust gases, the heat gets dissipated through the manifold walls. It develops an enormous amount of thermal stresses, which leads to formation of cracks and eventually reduces the life of the manifold. The objective of the work is to suggest a suitable and fine ceramic coating powder in terms of thermal resistance. Steady state thermal analysis is done using Ansys to determine the temperature distribution and other thermal variables that vary over time. And it is found that model with zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) exhibits excellent thermal resistant properties than any other.
