  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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).

Student, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Francis Xavier Engineering College, Vanarpettai, Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu, India1 Associate Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Francis Xavier Engineering College,Vanarpettai, Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu, India2 ABSTRACT: The term six-stroke engine has been applied to a number of alternative internal combustion engine designs that attempt to improve on traditional two-stroke and four-strokeengines. Claimed advantages may include increased fuel efficiency, reduced mechanical complexity and/or reduced emissions. These engines can be divided into two groups based on the number of pistons that contribute to the six strokes.The present paper deals with design of cylinder & cylinder head with air cooling system for 6 strokes 6 cylinder SI engine. The main objective of design is to reduce weight to power ratio & will result in producing high specific power. The authors have proposed preliminary design cylinder & cylinder head of a horizontally opposed SI engine, which develops 120 BHP and possess the maximum rotational speed of 6000rpm. Four stroke opposed engine is inherently well balanced due to opposite location of moving masses and also it provides efficient air cooling. For the requirement of weight reduction the material selected for design of cylinder and cylinder head is Aluminium alloy 6063 and aluminium alloy 5052.

  • Software Controlled Stepping Valve System for a Modern Car Engine
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Manufacturing 8 ( 2017 ) 525 – 532 14th Global Conference on Sustainable Manufacturing, GCSM 3-5 October 2016, Stellenbosch, South Africa Software Controlled Stepping Valve System for a Modern Car Engine I. Zibania, R. Marumob, J. Chumac and I. Ngebanid.* a,b,dUniversity of Botswana, P/Bag 0022, Gaborone, Botswana cBotswana International University of Science and Technology, P/Bag 16, Palapye, Botswana Abstract To address the problem of a piston-valve collision associated with poppet valve engines, we replaced the conventional poppet valve with a solenoid operated stepping valve whose motion is perpendicular to that of the piston. The valve events are software controlled, giving rise to precise intake/exhaust cycles and improved engine efficiency. Other rotary engine models like the Coates engine suffer from sealing problems and possible valve seizure resulting from excessive frictional forces between valve and seat. The proposed valve on the other hand, is located within the combustion chamber so that the cylinder pressure help seal the valve. To minimize friction, the valve clears its seat before stepping into its next position. The proposed system was successfully simulated using ALTERA’s QUARTUS II Development System. A successful prototype was built using a single piston engine. This is an ongoing project to eventually produce a 4-cylinder engine. ©© 2017 201 6Published The Authors. by Elsevier Published B.V.

  • Diesel Cylinder Head Rebuilding by Rex Baker
    Diesel Cylinder Head Rebuilding By Rex Baker Forgive me if I start off with some basics, but it is important to know them if you are doing anything at all in the diesel rebuild field. The Basics A diesel engine is an internal combustion engine that operates using the diesel cycle. Rudolf Diesel patented the diesel cycle design in 1893. A variety of designs have been used over the years to aid in the running and starting of the engine. Some of these include: pre-combustion chambers, energy cells, glow plugs, and a design where the engine started on gas and then switched over to diesel fuel. If you have ever tried to start most diesel engines in cold weather, you know that you have to have an engine heater, or you have to have a starting aid like starting fluid. These engines most commonly did not have a computer, and the fuel pressure would be in the range of around 3,000 psi to 6,000 psi. Today’s engines, with the aid of computer fuel management and fuel pressure in the range of 12,000 psi to 20,000 psi, starting in cold weather has all but eliminated the use of those traditional starting aides. Diesel engines use compression ignition, a process by which fuel is injected into the cylinder after the air in the cylinder is compressed causing the fuel to self-ignite. Diesel engines have a higher compression ratio than gas engines. Most diesel engines have a ratio of 14:1 to 25:1. The diesel engine was mostly naturally aspirated up until the 1970s.
