Poppet Valve
POPPET VALVE A poppet valve is a valve consisting of a hole, usually round or oval, and a tapered plug, usually a disk shape on the end of a shaft also called a valve stem. The shaft guides the plug portion by sliding through a valve guide. In most applications a pressure differential helps to seal the valve and in some applications also open it. Other types Presta and Schrader valves used on tires are examples of poppet valves. The Presta valve has no spring and relies on a pressure differential for opening and closing while being inflated. Uses Poppet valves are used in most piston engines to open and close the intake and exhaust ports. Poppet valves are also used in many industrial process from controlling the flow of rocket fuel to controlling the flow of milk[[1]]. The poppet valve was also used in a limited fashion in steam engines, particularly steam locomotives. Most steam locomotives used slide valves or piston valves, but these designs, although mechanically simpler and very rugged, were significantly less efficient than the poppet valve. A number of designs of locomotive poppet valve system were tried, the most popular being the Italian Caprotti valve gear[[2]], the British Caprotti valve gear[[3]] (an improvement of the Italian one), the German Lentz rotary-cam valve gear, and two American versions by Franklin, their oscillating-cam valve gear and rotary-cam valve gear. They were used with some success, but they were less ruggedly reliable than traditional valve gear and did not see widespread adoption. In internal combustion engine poppet valve The valve is usually a flat disk of metal with a long rod known as the valve stem out one end. -
Ignition System on the ZX750E
CD Ignition Interface for ZX750E1 Page 1 of 8 How to use an aftermarket CD (Capacitive Discharge) ignition system on the ZX750E. Art MacCarley Nipomo, California, USA February 2010. Background If you are only interested in the solution, not the background and explanation, please jump to the last section of this posting. While aftermarket electronic ignition systems and upgraded ignition coils are commonly used on the ZX750E, I could not find any case in which a Capacitive Discharge Ignition (CDI) system was used while retaining the stock ECU (Electronic Control Unit). With apologies to the experts on this forum that probably know everything I discuss below, this is for the benefit of those that, like myself, that had to figure it all out experimentally and come up with a solution. My personal motivation to use an ultimate ignition system was my conversion to methanol, which misfires and runs rough until fully warmed up. The higher energy output and multi-fire features of a CD system could possibly improve this. A typical inductive ignition system delivers about 100 mJ per spark, and electronic “points” and improved coils alone can only marginally improve upon this. A CD system can deliver theoretically much greater ignition energy, limited only by the size of the discharge capacitor, the charging voltage, and ultimately the internal breakdown voltage of the ignition coil. The output of the ARC-II is specified as 189mJ using a 500V charge voltage. My experience is based upon using the Dynatek Arc-II CD ignition system on my 1984 ZX-750E1. This CDI is advertised as having “the highest spark energy of any CDI on the market”. -

ISSN: 2319-8753 International Journal of Innovative Research in Science, Engineering and Technology (An ISO 3297: 2007 Certified Organization) Vol. 3, Issue 8, August 2014 Low Pressure High Torque Quasi Turbine Rotary Air Engine K.M. Jagadale 1, Prof V. R. Gambhire2 P.G. Student, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Tatyasaheb Kore Institute of Engineering and Technology, Warananagar, Maharashtra, India1 Associate Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Tatyasaheb Kore Institute of Engineering and Technology, Warananagar, Maharashtra, India 2 ABSTRACT: This paper discusses concept of Quasi turbine (QT) engines and its application in industrial systems and new technologies which are improving their performance. The primary advantages of air engine use come from applications where current technologies are either not appropriate or cannot be scaled down in size, rather there are not such type of systems developed yet. One of the most important things is waste energy recovery in industrial field. As the natural resources are going to exhaust, energy recovery has great importance. This paper represents a quasi turbine rotary air engine having low rpm and works on low pressure and recovers waste energy may be in the form of any gas or steam. The quasi turbine machine is a pressure driven, continuous torque and having symmetrically deformable rotor. This report also focuses on its applications in industrial systems, its multi fuel mode. In this paper different alternative methods discussed to recover waste energy. The quasi turbine rotary air engine is designed and developed through this project work. KEYWORDS: Quasi turbine (QT), Positive displacement rotor, piston less Rotary Machine. I. INTRODUCTION A heat engine is required to convert the recovered heat energy into mechanical energy. -
Air-Cooled Cylinders 2
Air-Cooled Aircraft Engine Cylinders An Evolutionary Odyssey by George Genevro Part 2 - Developments in the U.S. The Lawrance-Wright Era. In the U.S., almost the only proponent of the air-cooled engine during World War I was the Lawrance Aero Engine Company. This small New York City firm had produced the crude opposed twins that powered the Penguin trainers, which were supposed to be the stepping-stone to the Jenny for aspiring military pilots. The Penguins were not intended to fly but apparently could taxi at a speed that would provide some excitement for trainees as they tried to maintain directional control and develop some feel of what flight controls were all about. The Lawrance twins, which can be seen in many museums, had directly opposed air- cooled cylinders and a crankshaft with a single crankpin to which both connecting rods were attached. This arrangement resulted in an engine that shook violently at all speeds and was therefore essentially useless for normal powered flight. After World War I, some attempts were made, generally unsuccessful, to convert the Lawrance twins into usable engines for light aircraft by fitting a two-throw crankshaft and welding an offset section into the connecting rods. This proves that the desire to fly can be very strong indeed in some individuals. The hairpin valve springs pictured to the left were possibly pioneered by Salmson in 1911, and later used not only on British single-cylinder racing motorcycle engines, but also by Ferrari and others into the 1950s. This use was a response to the same problem that led to desmodromic valves at Ducati, Norton (test only) and Mercedes - namely the fatigue of coil springs from "ringing". -
Control Valve Sizing Theory, Cavitation, Flashing Noise, Flashing and Cavitation Valve Pressure Recovery Factor
Control Valve Sizing Theory, Cavitation, Flashing Noise, Flashing and Cavitation Valve Pressure Recovery Factor When a fluid passes through the valve orifice there is a marked increase in velocity. Velocity reaches a maximum and pressure a minimum at the smallest sectional flow area just downstream of the orifice opening. This point of maximum velocity is called the Vena Contracta. Downstream of the Vena Contracta the fluid velocity decelerates and the pressure increases of recovers. The more stream lined valve body designs like butterfly and ball valves exhibit a high degree of pressure recovery where as Globe style valves exhibit a lower degree of pressure recovery because of the Globe geometry the velocity is lower through the vena Contracta. The Valve Pressure Recovery Factor is used to quantify this maximum velocity at the vena Contracta and is derived by testing and published by control valve manufacturers. The Higher the Valve Pressure Recovery Factor number the lower the downstream recovery, so globe style valves have high recovery factors. ISA uses FL to represent the Valve Recovery Factor is valve sizing equations. Flow Through a restriction • As fluid flows through a restriction, the Restriction Vena Contracta fluid’s velocity increases. Flow • The Bernoulli Principle P1 P2 states that as the velocity of a fluid or gas increases, its pressure decreases. Velocity Profile • The Vena Contracta is the point of smallest flow area, highest velocity, and Pressure Profile lowest pressure. Terminology Vapor Pressure Pv The vapor pressure of a fluid is the pressure at which the fluid is in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed state. -
Vvt Solenoid
PROGRAM SPOTLIGHT VVT SOLENOID What does a Variable Valve Timing Solenoid do? The Variable Valve Timing Solenoid (VVTS) controls the oil flow to control the action of the Sprocket, which shifts the position of the camshaft. The position is varied based on the car’s computer commands to increase or decrease the engine’s valve timing. Where are Variable Valve Timing Solenoids located? The VVTS are usually located on or around the cylinder head block. Will a malfunctioning Variable Valve Timing Solenoid illuminate the check engine light or affect vehicle operation? Yes, a malfunctioning VVTS may cause the check engine light to be illuminated and may trigger multiple codes. What are the common causes of failure? VVTS can fail due to low engine oil levels, clogs due to oil sludge, and/or irregularly changed engine oil and filters. How to determine if Variable Valve Timing Solenoids are malfunctioning: Possible indications of a malfunctioning or failed VVTS include: an illuminated check engine light, engine noise and/or stalling, rough idling, and general poor performance. What makes Holstein Variable Valve Timing Solenoids the best? • Holstein focuses on using only the highest quality materials, manufactured to exacting standards for an aftermarket product that is truly built to match or exceed the OE part • Holstein Variable Valve Position Sensor line has superior coverage for domestic and import applications • Designed to maximize engine performance and fuel efficiency • 3 Year / 36,000 Mile Warranty on all Holstein Parts VVT Sensors HOLSTEINPARTS.COM | 1-800-893-8299. -

Kashibai Navale College of Engineering, Pune;[email protected], 2Student,Department of Mechanical Engineering, Smt. Kashibai Navale College of Engineering, Pune; [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper reviews the concept of a Quasiturbine (also known as Qurbine) Engine and its potential as a replacement for the standard Piston Engine. The Quasiturbine Rotary Air Engine is a low rpm engine, working on low pressure. For this purpose, a binary system of Quasiturbines is also used. It also discusses the multi-fuel capability of Quasiturbine and how it can be used in vehicle propulsion systems. This piston-less rotary machine is intended to be used where the existing technologies are centuries old and have numerous insurmountable problems. It has been consistently observed that this engine provides a better efficiency, much smaller ratio of unit displacement to engine volume, extremely high power per cycle and reduced emissions. Key words: Quasiturbine, standard piston engine, piston-less rotary engine, deformable rotor. I. INTRODUCTION A. Need and Invention Dr. Gilles Saint-Hilaire, a thermonuclear physicist, after thoroughly studying the limitations of conventional engines, designed the Quasiturbine Engine. The Quasiturbine is a continuous Torque, symmetrically deformable spinning wheel. The Saint-Hilaire family used a modern computer based approach to map the conventional engine characteristics with optimum physical-chemical graphs. -
2-Stroke Scavenging in Conventional and Minimally-Modified 4-Stroke
inventions Article 2-Stroke Scavenging in Conventional and Minimally-Modified 4-Stroke Engines for Heavy Duty Applications at Low to Medium Speeds Dirk Rueter Institute of Measurement and Sensor Technology, University of Applied Sciences Ruhr-West, D-45479 Muelheim an der Ruhr, Germany; [email protected] Received: 14 June 2019; Accepted: 7 August 2019; Published: 9 August 2019 Abstract: The transformation of a standard 4-stroke cylinder head into a torque-improved and gradually more efficient 2-stroke design is discussed. The concept with an effective loop scavenging via an extended inlet valve holds promise for engines at low- to medium-rotational speeds for typical designs of conventional 4-stroke cylinder heads. Calculations, flow simulations, and visualizations of experimental flows in relevant geometries and time scales indicate feasibility, followed by a small engine demonstration. Based on presumably long-forgotten and outdated patents, and the central topic of this contribution, an additional jockey rides on the inlet valve’s disk (facing away from the combustion chamber) and reshapes the in-cylinder flow into a reverted tumble. A quick gas exchange with a well-suppressed shortcut into the open exhaust is approached. For overall mechanical efficiency, the required charge pressure for scavenging is of paramount importance due to the short scavenging time and the intake’s reduced cross-section. Herein, still acceptable charging pressures are reported for scavenging periods equivalent to low or medium rotational speeds, as characteristic for heavy-duty applications. Using widely available components (charger, direct injection, variable camshaft angles) an increased engine efficiency is suggested due to the 2-stroke’s downsizing effect (relatively less internal friction as well as the promise of more torque and a decreased size). -
