The consensus is that if you want to increase engine output putting thermal barrier coatings on exhaust headers piston tops cylinder head combustion chambers and cylinder head exhaust ports.
Ceramic coating engine cylinder.
Also called ceramic coatings they act as a shield to prevent heat from passing into a part.
For all other applications use cbc2 above.
Powerkote cbx ceramic thermal barrier coating.
Coatings add an insignificant amount of height to the top of the piston so je s thermal coating is compatible with pretty much any piston dome or dish shape as well as features like gas porting.
This coating can also improve thermal transfer between the gas and the cylinder head and an additional heat dispersal coating can help cool the head.
Applying a ceramic coating to a combustion chamber s cylinder head and exhaust ports helps circulate exhaust gas at a faster pace while providing a more intense burn in the chamber.
Suppliers typically offer four types of coatings for high performance engines.
Thermal barrier coating designed for performance engines running.
12 5 1 compression ratios nitrous oxide n2o supercharged or turbocharged.
Creates a hard surface specifically designed for engines running high volumes of fuel and or high compression ratios or closed chamber heads.
Diblasi says since the ceramic crown coating is only 0005 we do not have to adjust any design characteristics when adding it.
Each has its own set of parameters for use.
