Abstract:
The objective of the project to design tiger generator crankshaft by using direct measurement to calculate the dimensions by using vernia, micrometer and a ruler.
A chemical analysis had been done to know the material of the prototype. Then static and dynamic analysis had been done to determine the stress resulted by the forces on the crankshaft using ANSYS software.3D model and detail drawing had been done using solid works software.
Structural steel (low carbon steel) had been tested in ANSYS software to calculate the stress on crankshaft and compared to stress when using low and high carbon steel.
From the results it had been found that low carbon steel is not suitable for manufacturing of the crankshaft, and high carbon steel had been recommended for manufacturing of the crankshaft.
