  • Small Engine Parts and Operation
    1 Small Engine Parts and Operation INTRODUCTION The small engines used in lawn mowers, garden tractors, chain saws, and other such machines are called internal combustion engines. In an internal combustion engine, fuel is burned inside the engine to produce power. The internal combustion engine produces mechanical energy directly by burning fuel. In contrast, in an external combustion engine, fuel is burned outside the engine. A steam engine and boiler is an example of an external combustion engine. The boiler burns fuel to produce steam, and the steam is used to power the engine. An external combustion engine, therefore, gets its power indirectly from a burning fuel. In this course, you’ll only be learning about small internal combustion engines. A “small engine” is generally defined as an engine that pro- duces less than 25 horsepower. In this study unit, we’ll look at the parts of a small gasoline engine and learn how these parts contribute to overall engine operation. A small engine is a lot simpler in design and function than the larger automobile engine. However, there are still a number of parts and systems that you must know about in order to understand how a small engine works. The most important things to remember are the four stages of engine operation. Memorize these four stages well, and everything else we talk about will fall right into place. Therefore, because the four stages of operation are so important, we’ll start our discussion with a quick review of them. We’ll also talk about the parts of an engine and how they fit into the four stages of operation.

  • Swampʼs Diesel Performance Tips to Help Remove and Install Power

La Vergne, TN 37086 Tel 615-793-5573 or (866) 595-8724/ Fax 615-793-5572 Email: [email protected] Tips to help remove and install Power Stroke injectors. Removal: After removing the valve covers and the valve cover gaskets, but before removing any injectors, drain the oil rails by removing the drain plugs inside the valve cover. On 94-97 trucks theyʼre just under where the electrical connectors are on the gasket. These plugs are very tight; give them a sharp blow with a hammer and punch to help break them loose, then use a 1/8" Allen wrench. The oil will drain out into the valve train area and from there into the crankcase. Donʼt drop the plugs down the push rod holes! Also remove one of the plugs on top of each oil rail, (beside where the lines from the High Pressure Oil Pump enter) for a vent to allow air to enter so the oil can drain. The plugs are 5/8”. Inspect the plug O-rings and replace if necessary. If the plugs under the covers leak, it will cause a substantial loss of performance. When removing the injectors, oil and fuel from the passages in the cylinder head drains down through the injector bore into the cylinders. If not removed, this can hydro-lock the engine when cranking. There is a ~40cc dish in the center of each piston. Fluid accumulates in it, as well as in the corner on the outside of the piston between the piston top and the cylinder wall, due to the 45* slope of the cylinder bank.

  • Development of Two-Stage Electric Turbocharging System for Automobiles
    Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Technical Review Vol. 52 No. 1 (March 2015) 71 Development of Two-stage Electric Turbocharging system for Automobiles BYEONGIL AN*1 NAOMICHI SHIBATA*2 HIROSHI SUZUKI*3 MOTOKI EBISU*1 Engine downsizing using supercharging is progressing to cope with tightening global environmental regulations. In addition, further improvement in fuel consumption is expected with such applications as ultra-high EGR, Miller cycle, and lean combustion. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) has developed a two-stage electric turbocharging system to balance better drivability and improved fuel consumption by increasing the turbocharging pressure and improving the transient response. |1. Introduction Engine downsizing/downspeeding through supercharging is progressing to cope with annually enhanced improvement in fuel consumption and exhaust gas. Downsizing through direct injection and supercharging has been developed mainly in European countries where the CO2 regulations are the most stringent, and it has expedited the increase of the turbocharger installation rate in other areas. Diesel vehicles are supposed to satisfy the CO2 and exhaust gas regulation standards in 2021. However, gasoline vehicles are still not able to meet the standards even in the case of low-fuel consumption vehicles with supercharged downsizing, and further measures are required. The adoption of WLTC (Worldwide harmonized Light duty driving Test Cycle) is planned globally in and after 2017, and new regulations taking actual driving conditions into consideration are being discussed. Turbochargers are required to provide a further boost pressure and better response, as well as robust and easy to operate characteristics, for this purpose. Existing turbochargers have a time-lag and EGR response delay, and proper control is difficult.

  • Engine Downsizing - an Analysis Perspective
    Visit the SIMULIA Resource Center for more customer examples. Engine Downsizing - An Analysis Perspective Mark Stephenson MAHLE Powertrain MAHLE Powertrain (MPT) is constantly exploring new ways to improve the efficiency and performance of engines to meet the demanding objectives Automotive OEM’s are faced with today, i.e. to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. MPT’s key expertise lies in the development of high performance engines with low emissions and excellent fuel economy through the optimisation of gas exchange, combustion, friction and durability. This strategy is being demonstrated by the development of MAHLE’s own state of the art three- cylinder 1.2-litre downsizing technology demonstrator engine which has been designed, built and tested at Northampton in the UK. One of the objectives of the project was to design a compact engine with high specific power output by using a turbo charger combined with state of the art direct injection technology and variable valve timing. This ensures that vehicle performance targets can be met using the smallest capacity engine thus minimising throttling losses which otherwise leads to high fuel consumption. With such a high specific power output predictive analysis has played a key role in guiding, validating and optimising the design. This paper highlights the use of Abaqus to perform structural analysis of the main engine: connecting rod, crankshaft and cylinder block bottom end as well as thermo-mechanical analyses of the head and block assembly and exhaust manifolds. 1. Introduction Since the agreement to reduce average new car CO2 emissions to 140g/km by 2008, fuel consumption improvement has been one of the main drivers for engine development within the automotive industry.

    SCIENTIFIC PROCEEDINGS XXIII INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC-TECHNICAL CONFERENCE "trans & MOTAUTO ’15" ISSN 1310-3946 COMPARISON OF CHARACTERISTICS OF SPARK PLUG ENGINES FSI, TSI/TFSI TYPE OF VOLKSWAGEN COMPANY PhD. Eng. Krzysztof Miksiewicz Faculty of Mechanical Engineering – Wroclaw University of Technology, Poland [email protected] Abstract: The use of direct injection in spark ignition engines, significantly facilitated the use of chargers in these engines. This resulted lately in the significant popularization of direct injection engines, initially freely sucking and in final result turbocharged. The greatest popularity on the market gained engines of Volkswagen company, named FSI and TFSI / TSI. Application of Common Rail systems allowed not only to improve the characteristics of the engine by increasing the accuracy in dispensing fuel into individual cylinders. The most important gain is the possibility of second injection of the fuel to the cylinder after the intake valve is closed. On the one hand it allows better control of the load in the cylinder, at first with the piston crown, and now with shaping the injection by the injector.

  • Chevrolet Cars and Trucks Get More with Less by Breathing Right
    Chevrolet Cars and Trucks Get More With Less by Breathing Right x Continuously variable valve timing (VVT) available on most Chevrolet models x Four-, six- and eight-cylinder engines continuously adjust air flow for best economy and lowest emissions PONTIAC, Mich. – Athletes understand that proper breathing is critical to maintaining peak performance under all conditions, and so do Chevrolet powertrain engineers. Getting air in and exhaust gases out of the combustion chamber under all speeds and driving conditions are essential to providing outstanding driveability and fuel efficiency with low emissions. “Whether powered by four, six or eight cylinders, virtually every current Chevrolet car and truck – from the compact Cruze to the full-size Suburban – features continuously variable valve timing (VVT) on its engine to optimize its breathing,” said Sam Winegarden, executive director, Global Engine Engineering. With VVT, camshafts are driven by chains from the crankshaft to keep the valve opening in sync with the motion of the pistons in the cylinders. The VVT-equipped Cruze Eco, with EPA-estimated highway fuel economy of 42 mpg, is the most fuel-efficient gasoline-fueled vehicle in America. VVT also contributes to the full-size Silverado XFE’s segment-best 22 mpg highway. Chevrolet’s VVT system uses electro-hydraulic actuators between the drive sprocket and camshaft to twist the cam relative to the crankshaft position. Adjusting the cam phasing in this manner allows the valves that are actuated by that camshaft to be opened and closed earlier or later. On dual overhead cam engines such as the Ecotec inline-four and the 3.6-liter V-6, the intake and exhaust cams can be adjusted independently, allowing the valve overlap (the time that intake and exhaust valves are both open) to be varied as well.
