Popis: This research aims to examine HAMC’s tribology’s performance-[Hybrid Aluminium metal matrix composites] reinforced with Silicon carbide, Nickel & Graphite at different temperature conditions for thermal applications. This is highly significant for applications with high-temperature. The HAMCs were developed by stir casting method by reinforcing particles like SiC (5% & 10%) and Ni.-Gr. (2% fixed) into LM26 aluminium alloy. The wear rate and friction coefficient of the material is analyzed through pin-on-disc apparatus. The parameter impact on applied load, wt%, sliding distance, and the temperature is analyzed using an L9 orthogonal array. COF and wear loss of the proposed HAMC is determined using the ANOVA method. The Tribological property of HAMC is mainly influenced by applied load and temperature. The varying hybrid % controls the COF and wear loss. The SEM analysis is used to assist the performance of the worn surface.
