Abstract

The following research presents the study and selection of an alternative composite material to manufacture electrical insulation devices for the high voltage circuit of Otto cycle internal combustion engines, better known as gasoline engines. High voltage insulators are generally made of materials such as rubber or silicone, whose material, when subjected to high temperatures, suffers technical degradation, causing electric power leaks and engine power losses. The purpose of this study is to suggest a composite material, with which only these insulating bodies can be manufactured. To do this, multicriteria selection techniques are used while the results are validated by virtual simulation of thermal character and normed experimental tests.
