Experimental Testing & FEA Validation of High Temperature Tensile Test of Aluminum Alloy (A413) for Piston Material

Generally the prediction of behaviour of material at high temperature is very difficult. During design of components which are subjected to or working at high temperature must consider the testing at elevated temperature. Hot tensile testing (HTT) is the method of tensile testing of material at elevated temperature. The materials used for automotive or aerospace applications are mostly subject to cyclic loading, high temperature and sometimes involve high frequency vibrations. High strength aluminium alloys are one class of materials that are widely used in the automotive and aerospace industries .In this work I test A413 material for HTT at different temperature and strain rate, which can be used for piston. Keywords ? HTT, high temperature, strain rate, piston, automotive or aerospace.
