Abstract

Engine is one of the most significant component of road vehicles. High performance vehicles have their engine supported by bracket. The engine mounting plays an important role in reducing the noise and vibrations, improving the comfort and work environment of a vehicle. The present work deals with design modification of engine mounting bracket. Modelling work has been carried out with commercial desktop CAD software and analyzed the modal performance with Analysis software. Ribs has been adopted to the existing mounting bracket for its better performance structural, thermal and modal analysis has been carried out with analysis software. Aluminium alloy, aluminium silicon carbide and magnesium alloy are considered as the different materials of mounting bracket. Based on the analysis it is found that the aluminium silicon carbide is superior suited for the modified V6 engine mounting bracket.
