The vast majority of high-speed engines are equipped with aluminum alloy pistons, and since these engines occupy a leading position in shipbuilding, the issue of restoring the piston as the most stressed and wear-prone part is relevant today. Aluminum alloy has a large number of positive qualities that determine their use for high-speed engines. These include low weight, which is necessary to reduce inertial loads, high thermal conductivity, due to which the piston does not overheat during norma
