DeZURIK’s founder, Matt DeZURIK, started designing products for the Sartell Paper Mill in 1925 that included knot boring machines, consistency transmitters and shower pipes. When he noticed that valves weren’t able to seal due to pitch build-up, he invented the first Eccentric Plug Valve – a design still in use today, dutifully solving sealing problems worldwide. Today, the DeZURIK, APCO, and HILTON brands continue the tradition of partnering with our customers in the Pulp & Paper industry to provide the newest innovations in control, gate, plug, butterfly, automatic air and check DeZURIK’s original Eccentric Plug valves.

  • Bing 64 (CV) Carburetor Part 2 (Starting Carb)
    Bing 64 (CV) Carburetor Part 2 (Starting Carb) In Part 1, we examined the basic prin- cipals of operation of the CV (Constant Velocity) carbu- retor. In this article we will take an in depth look into one of the most misunderstood subsystems of the carburetor, the “Starting Carb”. It is often referred to as the “choke”, however, this doesn’t properly de- scribe the operation of the Starting Carb. A choke is, really, a valve on the inlet side of a carburetor used to restrict the flow of air through the carburetor. This results in a low pressure with the intake manifold and carburetor sys- tem as a whole. This is different from the carburetor butterfly valve which is located down stream from the fuel nozzle which also restricts the airflow creating a low pressure, but only within the intake manifold. The choke valve which is located before the fuel nozzle pres- ents a low pressure to the entire carb. This low pressure, naturally draws more fuel through the carb and into the intake manifold resulting in an enriched mixture. The Figure: 1 Starting Carbure- tor in the Closed /Off position starting carburetor, on the other hand, is in fact a separate carburetor within the larger carburetor. This starting carb provides for an enriched mixture by introduc- ing addition fuel as well as air during the starting sequence. The starting carb on the CV carb is different from that incor- porated into the slide type carburetors used on the Rotax 2 stroke engines. The (Bing 54) carburetors, used on the 2 stroke engines also use a starting carb, Figure: 2 Starting Carb Exploded View but it operates in an On/Off capacity.

  • Modelling and Simulation of the Opening Process for the Aircraft Engine Starter Valve
    Modelling and Simulation of the Opening Process for the Aircraft Engine Starter Valve Yitao Liu, Chao Liu, and Zhenbo Yang School of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering, Guangzhou Civil Aviation College, Guangzhou, China [email protected], [email protected] Keywords: Engine, Starter Valve, Butterfly Valve, Pneumatic, Modelling, Simulation. Abstract: The structure and principle of the aircraft engine starter valve with dual pneumatic actuators are introduced. Characteristics of the valve, in particular the opening behaviours are analysed using mathematical models. The butterfly valve opening process under different inlet pressure is simulated on AMESim simulation environment. By comparing with test data, the model is proved to be accurate and reliable. The simulation results show that inlet pressure plays an important role in the opening process. The variables of primary interest are the rotating angle and time of the butterfly valve. In the dual actuators architecture, the valve requires less inlet pressure to rotate the butterfly disc full open and has higher reliability during aircraft operational cycle. 1 INTRODUCTION valves usually equipped with a spring and driven by pneumatic-based actuators.

INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE COOLING STRATEGIES: THEORY AND TEST A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Mechanical Engineering by John Howard Chastain, Jr. December 2006 Accepted by: Dr. John Wagner, Committee Chair Dr. Richard Figliola Dr. Darren Dawson ABSTRACT Advanced automotive thermal management systems integrate electro-mechanical components for improved fluid flow and thermodynamic control action. Progressively, the design of ground vehicle heating and cooling management systems require analytical and empirical models to establish a basis for real time control algorithms. One of the key elements in this computer controlled system is the smart thermostat valve which replaces the traditional wax-based unit. The thermostat regulates the coolant flow through the radiator and/or engine bypass to control the heat exchange between the radiator’s coolant fluid and the ambient air. The electric water pump improves upon this concept by prescribing the coolant flow rate based on the engine’s overall operation and the driver commands rather than solely on the crankshaft speed.

  • How Does a Carburetor Work? 1 of 18
    How does a carburetor work? 1 of 18 revzilla.com How does a carburetor work? Lemmy 17-22 minutes A carburetor is a highly sensitive, precision instrument designed to blend fuel and air in the correct ratio across the rather dynamic operating range of an internal combustion engine. They’re also, believe it or not, very easy to understand. While I won’t say that carburetors and their tuning (tailoring carburetion to a particular engine and even specific use scenario) are easy, their principle of operation is quite simple, and service is usually easy to perform if the carburetor design is a workable one and there is sufficient access to it. Carburetors are kind of neat because we still live in an era where they are used (and arguably the most complicated and best carburetor designs are all that are left in play), but due to emissions restrictions, they are no longer developed. They’re sort of a living fossil in that respect. In order to best explain carburetor design and improvement, I’m going to do what I usually do: take you back to earlier times to understand the simplest form of the topic we’re covering, and then we’ll skip ahead to all the big major about:reader?url=https://www.revzilla.com/common-tread/how-does-a-carburetor-work How does a carburetor work? 2 of 18 milestones.

  • HOW to CHOOSE the RIGHT AIR INTAKE SHUTOFF SYSTEM the Selection Guide
    HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT AIR INTAKE SHUTOFF SYSTEM The Selection Guide Selecting the right valve is the first step to ensuring that your diesel engine is well protected against becoming an ignition source should the engine overspeed. Since we offer a wide range of valves and systems from AMOT, Chalwyn, Roda Deaco, and RIGSAVER, we can narrow down the choices by knowing specific information about the application. Use the filters on our product database to select a valve by application type or engine model. If you don’t know the application or engine model, follow the steps below and select a valve using the intake piping diameter and activation source: RPM (automatic) or manual. Step Choose installation location and 1 measure the air intake pipe diameter Step Choose automatic or 2 manual actuation Step 3 Consider the application Step 1: Choose installation location and measure the air intake pipe diameter If it is not possible to install the valve in either of these locations, the next best option is pre-turbo Note: If you have a hose, use the inside dimension; if you have a pipe, use the outside dimension. after the air filter, , (Fig 3). Caution: Never mount air intake shutoff valves before the air filter. If you have multiple intakes (i.e., V-style engines), you will need multiple valves. x A. Installation on Turbo-Charged Engines Exhaust Manfold Intake Manifold The ideal location to install an air intake shutoff valve,x , is post turbo after the intercooler, as Fig 3: Pre-Turbo/ close to the intake manifold as possible (Fig 1).
