A More Efficient Engine, with Titanium Valves Winning Is Everything The racetrack is an unforgiving place. It rewards performance, and accepts no excuses. It is a place of absolutes, where there can be just one winner. Introducing the 2004 Suzuki GSX-R600. Built with genuine Suzuki engineering. Lighter. Better handling. Stronger. Delivering the best power-to-weight ratio in its class. With performance features straight out of the factory racing department. Titanium valves. Inverted forks. Radial- mount brake calipers and a radial master cylinder. Advanced ram-air intake. A powerful digital fuel injection and engine management system with more computing power, running larger throttle bodies. Designed with one goal in mind: Winning. A 600 Like No Other Leading the class is one thing. Leaving it far behind is another. The 2004 Suzuki GSX-R600 reallyis in a class of its own. With the most torque. The lowest dryweight, and the best power-to-weight ratio. Designed with better aerodynamics. A more effective ram-air intake system. Stronger brakes. More linear torque delivery. Better acceleration. The goal is winning. The plan, overwhelm the would- be competition, and establish domination. In other words, Own The Racetrack. With a 600 like no other.

  • To Stroke Or Not?
    SUMMARY This white paper presents a mathematical analysis of the piston dynamics of three popular versions of the Mitsubishi 4G63 engine, the stock 2.0L, the 2.1L destroked version with an 88mm crankshaft in a 4G64 block, and the stroker with a 100 mm crankshaft in a 4G63 block. Where applicable, charts are included to show the differences between the versions at different RPM’s or different crank angles. The conventional wisdom that strokers make more torque but the 2.0L will rev higher is explained with hard calculations of such factors as piston side loading friction and tension on the rods. The 2.3L stroker has the same side loading friction at 7150 RPM as the 2.0L at 8000 RPM. The conventional wisdom that the vibration from removing balance shafts is less than the effect of mismatched piston weights is challenged and explained with a mathematical analysis. A 2.3L stroker has the same harmonic imbalance at 7040 RPM as the 2.0L at 8000 RPM. The effect of the stroker geometry on camshaft selection is examined and supported with charts of common aftermarket 4G63 cams. The analysis shows that stroker engines are more tolerant of aggressive cams than the stock engine. The intake velocity of a stroker at 7000 RPM is the same as a 2.0L at 8000 RPM. Peak piston velocity of a stroker at 7390 RPM is the same as a 2.0L at 8000 RPM. INTRODUCTION After spending too many hours researching how to make my 1998 AWD Talon even better than new including reading many tuner posts in the DSM forums I decided to create this document as a payback to the DSM community.

  • Piston Motion Basics
    Piston Motion Basics The crankshaft, connecting rods, wristpins and pistons in an engine comprise the mechanism which captures a portion of the energy released by combustion and converts that energy into useful rotary motion which has the ability to do work. This page describes the characteristics of the reciprocating motion which the crankshaft and connecting rod assembly imparts to the pistons. A crankshaft contains two or more centrally-located coaxial cylindrical ("main") journals and one or more offset cylindrical crankpin ("rod") journals. The V8 crankshaft pictured in Figure 1 has five main journals and four rod journals. Figure 1 The crankshaft main journals rotate in a set of supporting bearings ("main bearings"), causing the offset rod journals to rotate in a circular path around the main journal centers, the diameter of which is twice the offset of the rod journals. The diameter of that path is the engine "stroke", which is the distance the piston moves from one end to the other end of its cylinder. The big ends of the connecting rods ("conrods") contain bearings ("rod bearings") which ride on the offset rod journals. ( For details on the operation of crankshaft bearings, Click Here; For details on crankshaft design and implementation, Click Here ) The small end of the conrod is attached to the piston by means of a floating cylindrical pin ("wristpin", or in British, "gudgeon pin"). The rotation of the big end of the conrod on the rod journal causes the small end, which is constrained by the piston to be coincident with the cylinder axis, to move the piston up and down the cylinder axis.

  • Advances in the Design of Two-Stroke, High Speed, Compression Ignition Engines
    Chapter 5 Advances in The Design of Two-Stroke, High Speed, Compression Ignition Engines Enrico Mattarelli, Giuseppe Cantore and Carlo Alberto Rinaldini Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/54204 1. Introduction The most difficult challenge for modern 4-Stroke high speed Diesel engines is the limitation of pollutant emissions without penalizing performance, overall dimensions and production costs, the last ones being already higher than those of the correspondent S.I. engines. An interesting concept in order to meet the conflicting requirements mentioned above is the 2-Stroke cycle combined to Compression Ignition. Such a concept is widely applied to large bore engines, on steady or naval power-plants, where the advantages versus the 4-Stroke cycle in terms of power density and fuel conversion efficiency (in some cases higher than 50% [1]) are well known. In fact, the double cycle frequency allows the de‐ signer to either downsize (i.e. reduce the displacement, for a given power target) or “down-speed” (i.e. reduce engine speed, for a given power target) the 2-stroke engine. Furthermore, mechanical efficiency can be strongly improved, for 2 reasons: i) the gas ex‐ change process can be completed with piston controlled ports, without the losses associ‐ ated to a valve-train; ii) the mechanical power lost in one cycle is about halved, in comparison to a 4-Stroke engine of same design and size, while the indicated power can be the same: as a result, the weight of mechanical losses is lower. Unfortunately, the 2-Stroke technology used on steady or naval power-plants cannot be sim‐ ply “scaled” on small bore engines, for a number of reasons.

Experiments were conducted in a small single-cylinder PFI engine with a displacement of 125 cc. The fuel used in the experiment was a mixture of pure gasoline and ethanol. The engine was operated at 5000 rpm at full load and wide-open throttle. In addition, combustion and exhaust characteristics of the engines with a B/S ratio of 0.88 and 1.15 were analyzed. The combustion pressure inside the combustion chamber was measured to analyze the indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP) and the heat release rate, and the combustion rate was calculated. In the results of combustion characteristics by the difference of B/S ratio, the influence of flame propagation velocity and turbulence intensity is the largest.
